Oh, I do remember that RTD likes angst

But what I see, far more clearly, is that everyone is on to RTD liking angst. This means that he's boring you at some level. You have seen this before and you know what to expect. And I'm not saying you are wrong...I have the sinking feelilng you are correct and RTD...as I said above...won't be able to resist that sad scene in the rain with Jack finally meeting Ianto's family at the funeral.

Certainly, the fictional world of Torchwood and Doctor Who could absorb a loss of ten percent of its children...given this Earth absorbed being dragged across time and space by the TARDIS. But...well...there is also the resolution of the episode. Is the point of this five night special: "Torchwood is useless in a crisis!"

Of course, Clem has a Hitchhiker...I'm sure of it. And I'm sure that is the key to his survival and solving the whole mess...but someone is sitting up and going on after death. I just feel it would be better storytelling if RTD played to dark humor rather than his usual angst at this point.
