John Barrowman On Torchwood's Return

John Barrowman was a guest on yesterdays Steve Wright in the Afternoon on BBC Radio 2, and claimed that there will be "most definitely" a fourth series of Torchwood and returning to the original 13-episode run! Nothing has been confirmed by the BBC but there probably will be. If there is, John Barrowman will return as Jack Harkness, and Eve Myles will probably return as Gwen Cooper with Kai Owen as Rhys Williams.

Advent Calendar

Hi everyone! I began making the new upgraded Whoviavortex a while back, called Tardis-Point. It was on blogger, and I used a downloaded template, but.. that didn't really go so well. So just this week, I started making it on Wix, and so far, it's going great! I decided that I'm making an advent calendar, coming up to Christmas and New Years. About half of them will include sneak peaks of the new site, because I don't really have much time to make one for each day. Others will include packs of icons, quizzes, wallpapers, and more. Enjoy!
