Why couldn’t they just synthesize whatever hormones 456 were getting high off of. Did literally nobody think to ask what they wanted with the kids. I have so many emotions about this

I was thinking. Torchwood and SJA take place in the same universe right??? So.... When Children of the Earth occurs.... What happens? Bannerman road gang fight back? Start protecting other kids on the street? Sarah Jane tries countless numbers of times to call the doctor to help or to beam herself on board? Mr Smith tries to disrupt the government attempts at snatching kids by hacking their computers to keep the children safe???
I wanna know more about how the large scale events in these shows knit together. Because we all know the Bannerman Road Gang would try to fight back in every way they could

the creators of "Torchwood" in the third season specifically blew up Jack Harkness to complicate the intellectual exercise in the style of "will he survive after *option*? 🌚
I'm still hoping for a disintegrator...

After being a Doctor Who Fan for almost 10 Years I Finally Started and Finished Torchwood!
Because of being a fan for so long and because of the internet I knew some of the storylines/character deaths but overall was going into watching the series not knowing the ending/some of the major plot points.
Season 1 and 2 were probably my favourite, mostly to do with the original team being together and the Hub being the central meeting place for a lot of the episodes.
I thought I was prepared for Children of the Earth, I knew what was coming but nothing could have prepared me for how sad that season is and just how quickly it goes from bad to worse. Even more so Gwen’s message for the end of the world and just seeing the other side of planet Earth when the Doctor isn't there to save them was very chilling.
Miracle Day...I have so many thoughts and emotions. First off having gone through a global pandemic Miracle Day is very terrifying to watch. Seeing just how fast the world descended into chaos and also seeing the two sides of the world either thinking that everyone has just continued living or thinking that people who would otherwise have died but are somehow still alive should be considered dead. Very much parallels to our own world during the pandemic.
An interesting thing I considered while watching Miracle Day is that it could have been a good point to create Superwholock (bear with me here). Season 4 takes place mostly in the United States and at one point Jack impersonates someone from the FBI, Sam and Dean Winchester would do this all the time making it a perfect time for those parties to meet. As for Sherlock it would have been interesting for him to have been contacted by any of the police units either in London or in Wales or even possibly the CIA as a consultant which would eventually have lead to him meeting Gwen and Rhys and then later Jack, Rex, and Ester. I realize that the Who part of Superwholock at the height of that super fandom was the 11th Doctor but I thought this was an interesting aspect of Season 4 to imagine.
Memorable Moments from all 4 Seasons that I enjoyed
- Jack having a daughter and grandson and learning about their relationship.
-All the alien tech and the way it looks so very Doctor Who like while still separating themselves as their own show.
-The Origins/Archives of Torchwood
-An Episode dedicated to how each member of the team came to work for Torchwood
-Seeing many familiar faces in Season 3 and 4 that have gone onto other shows and movies that I have seen.
-The Pterodactyl that lives in the Hub

Our spines fit together, like jigsaws, or fingers,
Bone settled gently against perfect bone.
My palm in your palm, where it lovingly lingered,
When I was still we, and you were my own.
.
Together we stayed, with no thought of leaving,
Joined, as we’d been, from the moment of birth.
Never alone, no sorrow, no grieving,
Perfectly one – the Children of Earth.
.
The gods looked down, unjustly haughty,
Never to know the things that we knew –
Their palace and powers were all for naught,
We had the great riches, you, I, and I, you.
.
And happy, below, we saw nothing wrong,
The Daughters of Earth, the Sons of the Sun.

My poetry short excerpts #3
"
We are all children of the earth
Each and every one of us
We grow our routes within it’s hearth
And together we shall entrust
Earth’s fate in our hands"
