# Talk:Day One (Torchwood)

Should we not mention the Radio Times explicitly says it's the Doctor's hand? --GracieLizzie 21:55, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I should say so.  Preferably, with a formal citation, if someone has a copy of the Radio Times at hand.  (Ooh, sorry.) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:56, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
I've added a citation to the main Torchwood page, and I'll add on here too. Kelvingreen 12:04, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
In Day One, notice how protective Jack is of the hand, which he wouldn't be if it were part of a Slitheen. More importantly, notice how a version of the new "Doctor's theme" from the soundtrack to the new Doctor Who series plays on the soundtrack as Jack cradles the hand. It's the only connection to the Doctor Jack has; of course he's going to be protective of it. Kelvingreen 21:58, 22 October 2006 (UTC)


### Song of Ten?
Are we sure it's the "Song of Ten" that plays when Jack cradles the hand, or is it the Ecclestone "oooh-oo-oo-ooh" (sorry) theme? I'll have to watch the episode again. ;) Kelvingreen 11:37, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

I apologise - I changed that assuming thatg "Song for Ten" was what was meant (haven't watched it yet). If it's the Time Lord-y theme, that's more properly called "Flavia's Theme". --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 12:03, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Just watched it again, and it's definitely the Time Lord-y theme, the one that, most recently, plays over the ending of Doomsday. It's the one with the female singer, although in Torchwood is piano rather than vocal based. If that sounds like "Flavia's Theme" to you, then go ahead and change it.

I'm not sure that there's any particular significance to Jack running his fingers through the dust left by the alien's victims. I think it's just the actor playing with a prop to add a bit of poignancy to the scene. However, Jack did see the victims on Satellite Five "die" in a similar way, so he may be thinking of that. We'll see, I suppose. Kelvingreen 22:12, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Or the sensualist Jack having a last physical contact with the dead being ? He is not shown as touching the dust that is the residue of the victims. -- Beardo 23:49, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

The alien sort of sounds like a succubus or an incubus to me. I finally watched the episode and... just my opinion. Sleeps with men and only men for the energy? I'm saying an incubus because it said towards the end, "He needs more." Which means not a succubus as that's a female demon, but a succubus sleeps with men and only men, while incubi sleep with women. Either way, it sounds like one of those.  Just the alien equivalent. Just my two sense.-Babylon pride 03:13, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Wow a sex alien feeding on energy! they should have more shows like that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.100.242.194 (talk) 12:11, 28 May 2009 (UTC) 

In this episode, Jack says 'good job she's young, go through my back catalogue and we'll be here till the sun explodes'. The fact that he was witness to the sun exploding in Doctor Who, would that be worth putting in?

It is reasonably well written.

I took care of a couple of typos and a repetition.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references):  b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR): 
No dead links and the sources look okay to me. I can't see any evidence of original research.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects):  b (focused): 

It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias: 

It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.: 
The article is stable.
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions): 
The images are good, one fair use with a proper rationale and one free one respectively.
Overall:
Pass/Fail: 
Just one thing and nothing to really stop me from passing the article, but at the end of the first paragraph in Filming it says; "However, the sequence had to be shot again twelve days later." Was a reason given for this?
