Good news for fans of Doctor Who spinoff Torchwood! (I count myself among their oh-so devoted number.)TV Guide Magazine is reporting that development of the series' fourth season may begin as early as January, according to a report by TV Guide's Ileane Rudolf, who speaks with Torchwood creator Russell T. Davies.
“The recession has hit British television, but fingers crossed, it will be a go," Davies told Rudolph. "We expect things to start to move in January. We’ve got great ideas for the show. I think there’s a further lease on life for many years to come, but certainly for a [fourth season]."
Fans should also rest assured that John Barrowman's Captain Jack Harkness will be back for a fourth go-around, even if no airdate or episode count have been reported.

I thought "Children of Earth" could be less depressing, only to see Ianto killed off, then Jack has to sacrifice his grandson, and then runs off, leaving Gwen all alone. So, if a fourth series does happen, I'd like to see a little more lighthearted fare, at least towards the end.
God bless!
