TW-classic

[silver_sun]

As some of you know I'm setting up a comm, tw_classic for all things series one, two and pre series of Torchwood. More info here: http://the-silver-sun.livejournal.com/121333.html

The question is when, for the purposes of this comm, should be the cut off point for for what is classic Torchwood.

[Poll #1604398]

New material, books, audio books, and radio plays, if they are set before the decided cut off point, will be included.

I'll keep this poll open until Saturday when the comm goes live.

I'm off to work now so I' not going to be able to reply to people before this evening.

I'm not sure whether Deadline is before or after Journey's End... because i very much like the idea of Gun-Wielding!Ianto and take-charge!Gwen hiding from Jack the fact the Dalek's are coming to the Hub and then HANDLING IT! (and the Jack reaction when he comes back to find them taking apart said dead Dalek has SO MANY possibilities! ::grin::)

Though i'm also one who misses Owen and Tosh - so would fix-its/AU's from those points fall under the "Classic" banner?

i like the idea of allowing for Alice, Stephen, and Ianto's sis and family without dealing with CoE!

If Journey's End is included, then you could also include Sarah Jane and Luke knowing Jack-Torchwood, you have a good place to start the "My (brother/uncle/father-grandfather) does WHAT!?!" (because how the HECK could the world NOT notice the multitude of planets in the sky and the RUSH when things were put back?) which could bring in the family mentioned in CoE, AND you could work on fix-its for what the Doc did to Donna ::grumble::

okay, just my thoughts (and i've already added the community ::blush:: )

Good luck,

I think the Deadline was meant to be the last of the old style Torchwoods before CoE, mainly because it seemed to all 'let me hit you over the head with this giant plot hammer of foreshadowing'

Series one and two based fix-its and AU's are definitely allowed, being as Torchwood was an anything can happen (usually did) show at that point.

I think I'm probably going to have a seperate poll over the use of Alice, Stephen and Ianto's sister + family once the comm is open. I think most people will probably say okay to use them.

Wow it's like you read my mind. I too want Journey's End because Ianto & Gwen do so rock in it. Also the whole moving the Earth is just so cool plus you get all of the old companions together (think of the possible story lines just waiting there). AND DONNA!!!!! Can't forget about her. I so want her to meet Ianto ( between the two of them they could rule the world don't you know *GRIN*).

As for the rest I'll wait for the next poll.
