Trivia / Torchwood S 2 E 9 Something Borrowed

• Actor-Inspired Element: It was Eve Myles's idea to have Gwen compulsively eat gherkins after waking up pregnant; the script had only specified the character drinking a glass of water.
• What Could Have Been: Originally, the human versions of the Nostrovite shapeshifter were intended to be more monstrous but Russell T Davies felt it was important that the audience would still be able to recognise the actor underneath once the makeup had been applied.
• Working Title: The Wedding.
