What we stand for

[jackfromthefairytale]

not enough people are torchwood fans in 2023. like, if this shit was airing now instead of like sixteen years ago then tumblr gays would be eating this shit up. if the big finish stuff was more easily available, people would probably also be eating it up. janto and jyler would be a ship war (a heavily to one side ship war, but a ship war nonetheless). the colchester-price fans would be happily eating popcorn at the side. everyone would be an orr and tosh fan. gwen and yvonne would be tumblr sexywomen. there'd be people picking out everything burn gorman has ever been in. there would be essays about why ng should/shouldn't be hated. andy davidson would still be lurking in the background. myfanwy would have more canon appearances.

Smash or Pass: Roxton A. Colchester III

Pros: Man I'm sorry. I got nothing. Tell me what you like about him in the comments

Cons: Wishes SO BAD that he was Indiana Jones. Smarmy as fuck. Terrible mustache. Starred in the worst plot. Damn I kind of hate Roxton. I think I need a nap

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿ENGLISH LOCAL GOVERNMENT REFORM 2025: ESSEX

we’re getting the first indication of what the first local government reorganisation might look like, and it’s for the eastern county of essex

the district council of basildon had proposed to the government to split the county into five unitary districts. instead, reports are that deputy prime minister rayner plans to cut it in three, in line with nationwide proposals for districts of roughly ~500,000 people

these reports mean this is the only thing we know for certain about council changes anywhere in the country: essex and the number three

currently, the lieutenant county is split thus. essex nonmetropolitan county council governs twelve of the essex lieutenancy’s fourteen districts, whilst the districts of THURROCK and SOUTHEND are independent unitary authorities

the reports also indicate that the thurrock and southend unitary authorities ARE valid targets for reorganisation, even though rayner said not all UAs would be abolished. therefore, i think it’s deeply obvious how the country can be trisected: one district in the highly populated south, and two in the north

the southend urban area flows all the way to basildon and up into the rochford district, which is separated from north essex by the crouch estuary, the easternmost bridge over which is very far west near basildon. thurrock should join this metropolitan district to create one government for the entire estuary area. the north can be split into a forest district centred on chelmsford, featuring london commuter towns and posh wankers, and a coast district centred on colchester featuring seaside towns and poor wankers. both districts have 500-odd thousand people, the perfect size for the government’s rubric

naturally, the three districts can be slotted together to create one combined county authority for the essex lieutenant county, and nothing more or less. with a population of 1.8 million, united essex is larger than lincolnshire and just smaller than the east midlands mayoralty (i hate calling them mayoralties or combined authorities, please give them a better name), making it perfect to stand on its own

i’ve given the districts three names but, tbh, knowing how terrible uk governments are at naming things, they’ll end up being called west, east and south essex

the rest of the country should follow this same general formula. the case of essex is incredibly simple and easy to divide into the new large districts, but other areas will be far more complicated. but ultimately it’ll be crack, glue, stitch, just like this

[iantojonesirl]

some of the funniest parts in torchwood tsc are when someone says to mr colchester smth like 'what do you HATE gay people or smth?!?!?!' and hes just like 'yeah bitch, anyways better go my husbands making me dinner' AHHHH I LOVE HIM SM hes so underrated

Ten Questions For Silver

(Transcript of Alison interviewing my ghost oc for the Button House Archives)

Alison, recording/writing: Ten Questions For Silver. Okay, this isn't officially the first one but, I gotta ask it anyway, why the name change?

Silver: Two reasons. One, I always hated the name Louise. Bullies at school used to call me Louis or Lewis or, my favourite, Loo Face.

Alison: Fair enough.

Silver: Second reason, when I got into Wicca all the books said it was common to choose a more 'witchy name'. Silver is my favourite metal and corresponds with the moon. Robyn - with a y - because Robin Hood was always my favourite Disney hero as a kid.

Alison: Did you fancy the fox?

Silver: I might have fancied the fox, I think we can all admit to that.

Alison: No comment.

Silver: Plus the birds are pretty. No relation to a certain annoying caveman, just a coincidence. And Ravenstar because...it honestly just sounded cool.

Alison: Gotcha. Okay, onto the real questions. Where were you born?

Silver: Under the sign of Pisces, on a waxing moon evening-

Alison: I meant, like, geographically.

Silver: Oh. Colchester General, Essex.

Alison: And how did you die?

Silver: Julian keeps telling everyone I O.D'd on magic mushrooms, which is obviously a lie! It was a brain aneurism. Honestly, I just think he likes to make it clear he wasn't the only ghost who was high as a kite when he croaked.

Alison: *snigger*

Alison: Favourite food?

Silver: I was a bit of a chocoholic in life. Galaxy, Thorntons, Milky Bars, Munchies! Thank the gods my uncle was a dentist.

Alison: Hmm.

Silver: Ooh, if I had to pick one, it would be Echo bars!

Alison: I remember them. They got discontinued!

Silver: Noooooo! That's the saddest thing I've ever heard!

Alison: Sorry! Moving on then, favourite drink?

Silver: White Russian vodka. It was my first proper cocktail on my sweet sixteenth.

Alison: Nice. Favourite song?

Silver: Bring Me To Life by Evanescence. Which is kinda ironic, the more I think about it. Do you remember them?

Alison: Yeah, I was more a Girls Aloud sort of kid.

Silver: Oh. Plastic.

Alison: Sorry?

Silver: Nothing!

Alison: Uh huh. Favourite sport?

Silver: *long, drawn out groan* I guess...telling my teacher I was on my period to get out of P.E.

Alison: *snigger* I did that too.

Silver: Unless it was trampolining! That was pretty cool. And really hard to lose at.

Alison: Biggest regret?

Silver: Never getting to kiss a girl.

Alison: Aww, you died before your first kiss?

Silver: Oh no, I kissed loads, but they were all boys and...it was like 'meh'? I started realising I was more into girls but...never got the chance to 'test drive' if you get me. Fuck, that sounded misogynistic. I need to spend less time with Julian.

Alison: Well, you never know. It could still happen in your afterlife.

Silver: That's what Mary said. Don't suppose you happen to know any fit queer girls you could bring here and...?

Alison: What? Murder?

Silver: In a nice way! Painless and all that.

Alison: Is that not against your whole Wiccan code of not harming anyone?

Silver: Not if you do it.

Alison: Right. Well let's just stick in a pin that idea for now and I'll think about it, okay.

Alison: Fondest memory?

Silver: Oh, that's hard. There's a few from when I was alive, visiting Stone Henge with my dad, the first time we brought home my dog Jess when she was a puppy. But I guess I'd have to go with Winter Solstice 2009.

Alison: What happened there?

Silver: Well because of the whole, y'know, sleeping curse thing, I often miss out on major events, including holidays. Even the Sabbats, my pagan festivals. But that Yule fell on a full moon so I got to be awake. Even better, the guys all joined in with me and Robin to do our ritual! Even Mary got involved. She made herself to penance for weeks after but she joined in that night for me and...shit, I'm getting a bit teary now. I just never imagined I'd have friends like this, you know?

Alison: Aww! That is really sweet. Maybe I can join you guys on the next one?

Silver: That'd be cool. Fanny did the math and said the next full moon on the Solstice is...I think she said, 2038?

Alison: ....I'll set a reminder. And until then we can just have a little mini Christmas when you wake up around that time.

Silver: Yule. Not Christmas. Though it's basically the same, the Christians stole everything that's fun from pagan traditions. The tree, the wreath, even Father Christmas, they're all from Norse and Celtic culture, did you know that?

Alison: Yes, both you and Robin went on a very long rant about it when I was putting up the mistletoe.

Silver: That was mainly to keep Thomas away from you.

Alison: Oh! Then thanks for that.

Alison: Worst Trait?

Silver: I've been told that I can be too opinionated and that I also 'infodump' my interests to people when they're not interested, but I honestly think people just need to try to have more of an open mind, if they just tried to look outside their own bubble they'd be surprised what they could learn, I mean look at Mary, when she first met me she had all these preconceived judgements and misinformation about witchcraft but when she took the time to listen I went into all the history-

Alison: (Author's Note: my wrist began to cramp from attempting to write this answer down so I let Silver continue talking while I quickly washed the dishes, did the ironing and sorted mine and Mike's dinner for the evening before sitting back down with her).

Silver: -and now she understands that the devil of her religion and the Horned God of my practice are two separate entities, and that was just another lie spread by the church to make us seem evil when we're not.

Silver: Sorry, what was the question?

Alison: Oh you already answered it, it's fine.

Alison: Final question. Do you have any words of advice?

Silver: Don't do drugs.

Alison: That....makes sense.

Silver: Nah, I'm just kidding. Uh, to quote my favourite other dead person; "speak as you finds and don't lets any man-one take away thy voice."

Alison: Wow. She really was special, wasn't she.

Silver: (a/n: she nods, suddenly quiet and staring at her hands)

Alison: You okay?

Silver, smiling: Yeah, I'm just...still really bummed about those Echo bars, you know?

Alison: Yeah, I miss them too. Thank you, Silver.

Silver: Thank you. Blessed Be and Merry Part.

Alison: ....Indeed.

[doctorwhoisadhd]

i just. i cant believe that they had andy start fucking literally THE single most boring for him to be having sex with in all of torchwood. like literally EVERY OTHER RECURRING CHARACTER would be more interesting. putting him with jack gives him a silly bisexual awakening. putting him with tosh or ianto or owen or esther would just be cute. with john hart or rex or norton would be really funny. with either colin or colchester would also be really funny but in a colchester price divorce arc way. putting him with ng orr or tyler would create extremely fascinating character arcs for everyone involved. having him and gwen fuck would be more opportunities for her to suck and be the selfish bitch queen of my heart. even him and rhys would be great because because they hate each other so it would be that gwen is absolutely making them do this so she can watch. so having him fuck yvonne in comparison to literally any single other recurring torchwood character is SO UNBELIEVABLY BORING.

[mermaidsirennikita]

Since we're on the topic what is your favourite kind of romance heroine? It doesn't have to be one specific type just what kind do you gravitate towards.

Hmmm I mean, I love a lot of romance heroines, but I've noticed that I tend to enjoy heroines who've experienced life most of all or are very determined to experience it. This doesn't have to mean a widow in historicals, or even necessarily one who isn't a virgin (though I do prefer a non-virgin heroine over a virgin--and it truly doesn't matter lol, I'll read either very happily, it's just that like... if I HAD to choose I'd pick a heroine who wasn't a virgin, and the hopeful? series I'm trying to write does not feature any virgin heroines, which wasn't planned and sort of just happened). I just like a heroine who's at least somewhat jaded, who knows how the world works. Someone who is closed off.

I do love an ice queen. The lady of the manor, as it were. I also really love an unrepentantly sexual and hedonistic heroine--like, I ADORE this type, virgin or not. Someone who's all "well what happens if I do tHIS?" and very happily teases her partner. I think both the ice queen who's seen too much of the world and is tired of this shit and the very sexual heroine (whether she's done it before or adjusts to it like a duck to water lol) are preferable to me than like... The true babe in the woods innocent who's like "whaaaaat" at every single sexual thing that happens. Like, as an example of how you can handle this with virgin heroines--Evie in Devil in Winter is a virgin, but she's very naturally sexual and doesn't have an issue with adjusting to St. Vincent's appetites and is soooo into sex that she's the one who "makes" him lose the bet. And she's so practical about it. She finds out they need to fuck to make it legit and goes "yeah that sounds about right". She's not all shocked or whatever.

I love very feminine heroines, and will usually gravitate towards heroine that give "divine feminine" vibes over tomboy vibes. BUT THAT BEING SAID. I can get behind most heroines. Very rarely will I turn down a book just because the heroine doesn't seem like my type. I tend to love heroines that people hate. The only things I really can't do with heroines is:

--constant insecurity

--constantly mentioning how plain or ugly she is like shut the fuck up Mr. 6'5" stunnah with a 9 inch cock is railing you at every minute, I don't buy it, this feels like such pandering and I frankly don't want or need it

--subset: heroines who are fat and are always like "I know that because of my ample body he probably doesn't like me" oh my god this romance hero is clearly one of those guys who likes to see it jiggle get ooooover it (I say this as someone with insecurities about my weight--I just can't get behind heroines who agonize over it every other page, she can have body image issues without it being 20% of the novel)

--heroines who fuck the hero over but it's fine because she's the heroine and he's the hero and we never confront these actions ever (ex: I just a read a book I was really loving with an NFL player hero who was a virgin, and the heroine deflowered him, they fell in love, and this Ashley Madison type site put out a $1 million reward for a woman who could prove she took his virginity; someone steals hero's phone and leaks nudes of the heroine she sent him, and it's hORRIBLE and she's understandably traumatized and depressed, but she claims her power by TELLING THE PRESS SHE TOOK HIS V CARD without TELLING HIM IN ADVANCE so she can donate the money to charity???? And when he's understandably mad it's treated as this overreaction on his part??? And dude I am sorry but how the fuck is very intimate info about his sex life being shared without his permission okay???? Anyway sorry that shit blew my mind.). I find that condescending.

Heroines I love that I think sum up a lot of this:

--Greer Galloway/Colchester/Galloway Colchester Moore or whatever the fuck from New Camelot by Sierra Simone. Greer is so self-possessed and cool and smart, but she's also like, this hedonistic wild woman who is fully willing to "why not both?" her marriage. Lol some of the best parts of the sex scenes in those books are Greer in the background like "GIVE HIM THE DICK!!!!!"

--Neomi Laress, Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole. A total temptress(ssss) who flirts first and asks questions later, but is also out for her own (understandable) game and accidentally falls in love with a deeply damaged Conrad Wroth and is like "he is baby". Both tough and jaded and deeply nurturing once her heart opens up.

--Ellie Peirce, Lothaire by Kresley Cole. I love Ellie so fucking much. (And she's a virgin heroine, so again, I love all!) She's tough as nails (her epigraph is literally "steel magnolia? TRY TITANIUM") but has the vulnerability to like, cry and break down when shit gets really hard. She refuses to be disrespected. She's very in touch with her own sexuality and uses it to get what she wants. I love a heroine who approaches a hero that is basically the equivalent to a massive toothy snarling monster and like, solemnly buckles a diamond collar that says "BRAT" or something around his neck, and then he's just her bitch from there on out.

--Eleanor Ramsay, The Duke's Perfect Wife by Jennifer Ashley. A new favorite! I love her your honor! Very fun and nice and perky and confident, but has been around the block and isn't super quick to trust Hart this time around. (Even if they did have sex THRICE like a decade ago, as he constantly reminds her.) She had the dignity to expect better from him and dumped his ass without crying (in front of him). She also, unfortunately, can't resist that dick. And wants to take Victorian photographs of it. The dichotomy of woman. But again, this heroine who just blinks at the hero unimpressed and goes "down boy" is really My Shit.

--Sara Fielding, Dreaming of You by Lisa Kleypas. Sara really encapsulates a specific subset of heroine that I love, and I think this is probably my favorite type of virgin heroine, which is "local woman cartwheels headlong into mortal peril at any given moment while very growly man shrieks in terror and runs after her like she's a priceless vase that just fell off his mantle". Sara is nosy, she's not afraid to learn, she is naive at points but in a very "my b" kind of way, she super doesn't care about cheating on her wet blanket fiance when Derek Craven is on the menu, and she does dumb shit like go "Should I get bangs?" (Derek: I WILL KILL MYSELF IF YOU GET BANGS.)

[thatlastdanceofchances]

“I know where you are now. And I know what I will do next.”

7.5 Propaganda by Ash Darby Orr is desperate to get to Voloshnik. The city’s sealed off in the middle of a war the world’s forgotten. There has to be someone left to save.

7.6 At Her Majesty’s Pleasure by Tim Foley Yvonne Hartman is in a very special prison. And there’s absolutely no way out of it. So why is she convinced she’s escaped?

7.7 Cuckoo by Tim Foley A group of urban explorers break into the Torchwood Hub. They disturb Bilis Manger who has his own plans for the evening.

7.8 Pariahs by James Goss We’ve all spent the last two years sticking our DNA in jars and sending it off in the post. What happened to it? Two people know the secrets of the Phlobos Scandal, and Torchwood have to keep them alive.

[camillasgirl]

Why are people hating on Charles for the Colchester engagements, did I miss something?

I have no idea, tbh. And, unfortunately, I am unable to delete anything because these remarks aren't comments but reblogs. It's really silly and annoys me.

[femmefaggot]

IS OK I UNDERSTAND NOT KNOWING WHAT TO SAY BUT BEING INTERESTED ANYWAY

im gonna explain the audio season characters because theyre my friends <3

- mr colchester: he has a first name but he hates it so even his husband doesn't call him that. he's a kinda grumpy old man and he basically does the same support things ianto used to do (one time colchester was like "i dont know how you managed before i came along" and i was like well there was ianto. beforehe died.) but unlike s1 ianto he still does a lot of the action stuff. shooting aliens. running around the city. classic torchwood

- orr my favourite orr <3 ive already talked about them but their powers are very useful for undercover work. and also i think theyre immortal now?

- ng : some kind of prophet that camz to earyh to hide from her god and chose to hide in gwen's body. she realised she actually really likes life on earth and torchwood. like orr shes also in the process of finding out her own identity outside of what other people want her to be/do since she was the prophet for so long. shes a lot like gwen tho

- tyler : ex-journalist who is actually not very kind. he almost got recruited by torchwood but then he let an alien shoot a room full of people so that he wouldn't be killed and jack was like "ummm wtf" and didn't hire him. he kept hanging around the hub everytime weird shit happened to go tell torchwood all about it and eventually he gets recruited for real

- yvonne : the yvonne who used to be the leader of torchwood one but from the parallel universe thats in season 2 of doctor who you know the one. she crossed over years ago and took over torchwood by pushing jack off a building. very ambitious ad manipulative always making convoluted plans in her head

- norton : hes only in a couple episodes of season 6 but hes in alot of monthlies/other boxsets before that. hes actually an employee of 1950s torchwood who uses soem kind of time travel hologram to be in the present...... hes a little bitch hes so funny.

NG AND NORTOM SOUND RLY FUNNNN I LOVE CUNTS AND ALSO QUESTIONS OF IDENTITYY yayayay this iz so cool

ALSO I forgot in the first ask u said smth abt not knowing h2g2 I CANT like suggest a starting point but there iz soooo much ive been thinking abt playing the text adventure game ^^ but I started w the books n theyre sooo fun LIKE UMMM if u ever enjoyed uhh that 1 seriez w the orphans LOL the baudelaires the writing style iz that sort of filled w character but not 4 kidz

[javic-piotr-thane]

update: OK THIS IS NOT THE ACTION I ASKED FOR

NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING

to preserve it for posterity (aka my own screaming brain after i've calmed down a bit), i'll try and summarize in the fewest words what we've just gotten: in chronological order

Colchester finding Tyler in a nightclub, taking drugs and snogging the dealer

Colchester ripping the scumbag off him and sending him away (while absolutely needlessly complimenting Tyler), seeing the state Tyler is in and..being protective of him ??

Tyler hitting on Colchester because he'd rather have sex with him than no sex that night [minimum interpretation, further interpretations filed away for later use]

Tyler, confronted with Colchester's strong disapproval of his drug use, confessing that his job is tearing him apart - that reading hate comments all day every day is really getting to him (confessing that he thinks he deserves to be sexually assaulted (??) because he can't stop the comments, trapped by the system)

Tyler accusing Colchester of feeling nothing (directly revealing way more about himself than he ever did before)

Colchester jokingly offering to knock him out next time he wants to "feel nothing for a few hours", and driving him home (shocking Tyler, who evidently did not expect him to be "nice")

[mar-sibilina]

Orr’s on a mercy mission to a doomed city. Sgt Andy is visiting an old flame in prison. Bilis Manger spends a night in the Torchwood Hub. Mr Colchester has to keep the most hated man in Britain alive for one more day. “I know where you are now. And I know what I will do next.”

7.5 Propaganda by Ash Darby. Orr is desperate to get to Voloshnik. The city’s sealed off in the middle of a war the world’s forgotten. There has to be someone left to save.

7.6 At Her Majesty’s Pleasure by Tim Fole. Yvonne Hartman is in a very special prison. And there’s absolutely no way out of it. So why is she convinced she’s escaped?

7.7 Cuckoo by Tim Foley. A group of urban explorers break into the Torchwood Hub. They disturb Bilis Manger who has his own plans for the evening.

The Killers' Mr. Brightside: An Enduring Anthem Breaks Records

The Killers are celebrating a double victory with their iconic song "Mr. Brightside." The track has landed them not one, but two Guinness World Records! As of July 4th, it's clocked a staggering 416 weeks on the UK singles chart – the longest run for a group and the overall record for any song. That's nearly eight years of dance floor domination and anthemic singalongs! Lucy Hamblin.Waytagojoe at en.wikipedia, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0, via Wikimedia Commons Released in 2003 as the lead single from their debut album "Hot Fuss," "Mr. Brightside" has transcended generations. The band itself is surprised by its enduring popularity. Frontman Brandon Flowers told Guinness World Records, "It's infectious still to us… There's going to be people tonight who've never seen it live, there'll be some people who've seen it 45 times. And we just don't get tired of it." Drummer Ronnie Vannucci Jr. echoes the sentiment, describing it as a "highly reciprocal thing" where the band feeds off the crowd's energy as much as the audience feeds off theirs. Guitarist Dave Keuning adds a touch of humility, acknowledging they might have envisioned success, but there's no guarantee a song will resonate like this. Guinness World Records Adjudicator Will Munford hails "Mr. Brightside" as a timeless classic, filling countless dance floors and soundtracking countless late-night singalongs. It's a testament to the song's ability to connect with fans across generations. This isn't "Mr. Brightside's" first brush with chart history. In May, it dethroned Oasis' "Wonderwall" as the UK's biggest-selling single never to reach Number One. Sales and streams combined put it at a whopping 5.57 million, making it the third biggest song overall in the UK. It's no surprise then, that it averages a staggering 1.8 million streams per week in the UK alone, with no signs of slowing down. The song even played a role in a recent concert. During their London show on July 11th, The Killers paused their performance so the audience could watch England's Euros semi-final victory. The win was met with a celebratory eruption, and the band fittingly launched back into "Mr. Brightside" to mark the occasion. "Mr. Brightside's" popularity isn't without its quirks. A DJ in Colchester has made headlines for imposing a hefty "fine" of £1,000 for anyone requesting the song at his club! While some might scoff, the DJ argues it disrupts the flow of the night and doesn't always fit the vibe. Love it or hate it, there's no denying "Mr. Brightside's" impact. The band's recent London show received rave reviews, with a focus on both their greatest hits and deeper cuts. They'll be celebrating the 20th anniversary of "Hot Fuss" with a Las Vegas residency in August – tickets are still available for those who want to experience this phenomenon live.

Torchwood Timeline (April 2024)

This is my canon timeline for the Torchwood TV stories, novels, and audio productions. It's fairly similar to the wiki timeline with a few small tweaks. It's also completely spoiler free, unlike the wiki timeline.

Some entries have firm dates, some have months, some have general decades, so I've tried my hardest to fit them into where I feel they fit. If anyone spots anything that I've missed or sees any glaring problems let me know and I'll try to suss it out. New stories will be added as they are released.
