A request to people who've seen this show: can someone update the entry for Torchwood for Super Weight? It's a Just for Fun homegrown ranking at TV Tropes of measuring characters' relative power in a story, divided into nine broad categories. The entry according to the old criteria was this (and can be found on the medium subpage's discussion page):
- Torchwood
- Type -1: Ordinary humans
- Type 0: Rhys Williams, Ianto, Her Majesty's Government, Esther
- Type 1: Gwen, Owen, Toshiko, Martha, human villains, Miracle Humans (non category 1) e.g. Oswald
- Type 2: Jack, Owen late in series 2, the Weevils, most alien villains, Lisa Hallet, combat trained post Miracle Humans (e.g. Rex), Adam
- Type 3: The 456, the fairies
- Type 4: Abaddon, Duroc, The Doctor (no direct appearance on the show)

What is up with Doctor Who Jack Harkness being way nicer as a person than Torchwood Jack Harkness?

It's super effective.

Is the tone really "Doctor Who with swearing"? I'm not sure if I see it.

Likewise, I think "campy" is taking it a bit far, even if not everyone appreciates series 1 and 2 that much. Is that just me?

Is it time to consider starting a separate page for the Big Finish range, rather than simply directing people to the Big Finish Doctor Who page? The BF range is now a fairly substantial part of the show, especially given Aliens/God Among Us are a creator-sanctioned Series 5 & 6.
