I have to say I love the one day-one episode way this season of Torchwood is being aired. Talk about instant gratification ;-) As for the plot, ( cut for spoilers )
In other TV related news, I've finished the second season of Burn Notice this weekend. I love that show, and it seems to love me back - in the 14th episode of the second season there was a parkour chase scene! A proper one, with a roll, a wall run, precision jumps, a cat leap and a kong! I've been researching like mad trying to see who did the stunts, but so far I haven't found anything. I did, however, learn that Gabrielle Anwar, who plays Fiona, has three kids. That... blows the mind.
Aside from TV shows, I've seen a couple of films recently that reminded me why I love cinema so much. One was Franklyn, a wonderfully dark and convoluted tale, with amazing cityscape and awesome music. I have to get that one on bluray, once it gets cheaper.
Another one was Bronson, an indie/artsy film about a violent prisoner. Tom Hardy blew me away with his performance, particularly since the bonus features included an audio intro by the real Bronson, and he sounded exactly the way Tom played him. It was almost eerie. I need to keep my eye out for more of Tom's work.
