Russell T Davies In-Route to America; Torchwood Future Uncertain
UK News is reporting Russell T Davies is leaving for America. The article is proclaiming uncertainty over the Doctor Who spin-off shows he had spearheaded with his relocating to Hollywood, CA. Russell T Davies says in the article:
"I haven’t planned anything, all my furniture is now there and I’m just going to start writing."
"It will take years to get anything made out there. It’s going to be difficult, so new and so brilliant. I will learn from people and bring it back here one day. It’s a big adventure and a lot of fun."
According to the piece, a spokeswoman for the BBC stated it was too early to tell whether Torchwood would return or not, that they would have to look closely at all the ratings.

Meanwhile Kai Owen (Rhys Williams in Torchwood) has said the following in an article appearing in the Coventry Telegraph (11 July 2009):

The notion that the BBC needs to check the ratings is laughable. But then, the way the BBC operates in general is pretty laughable.
Hey, BBC!
Over 6 million viewers spent a week riveted to this story. What's there to check?
