Like I said before, the producers and writers of this series clearly wanted to have an epic "what would happen if?" story to rival, or even outdo, the previous one. And, as with series three, the horror is accentuated by the suspicion that this is the kind of thing that politicians and other authority figures might actually decide t do in an extreme situation. But Children Of Earth was only five episodes long and each one took us a bit further along the line of knowing both the back story and what the authorities might do in response to the situation. Here we are at episode five, only half way through and knowing very little. My memory insists that I saw the burning-alive revelation coming but I may just be fooling myself. I know I saw the death camps similarity but I can't really be certain that I guessed how they would get rid of people who seem unable to die. I suspect that the imbd rating is higher than yours because of the final minutes being so dramatic and horrifying. That's the part that people remembered seeing when they came to rate it.

"Are we going to drop something heavy on him?", Nicole, "Reaction to Torchwood: Miracle Day - The Categories of Life" Well, that was a short-lived record for the most most-shocking death we've seen - last week we had the "Dead is Dead" politician in the car-crusher - this week we had Vera getting shot by the horribly obnoxious Maloney and then being put in the module to be incinerated. This is a bit of a consolidation episode - there are no high tech heists but we do have our team infiltrating overflow site on both sides of the Atlantic, and we're gradually discovering more and more horrible issues. This episode was written by Jane Espenson who was a writer and story editor on Buffy. It's good to get PC Andy and Rhys involved in the show again - Rhys dressed as a chauffeur was nice. Vera's death comes as a shock - and a reminder that our Torchwood team members can die in the series. I really liked her. And Gwen beating herself up over her attempt to get her father out only for it to go wrong being classified as Category 1. You really feel for her. But the story seems very real - you could imagine it all happening given the situation in the world - and that's scary.
