Steven Moffat has nothing to do with Torchwood, but don't let facts get in the way of a good rant.

If I have it wrong, I will say I am sorry LOL but I still won't like Moffat, you can't make me.

What I read years ago (on the interwebs so we know it is the truth) was that when Captain Jack, Martha, and Mickey walk away from the TARDIS, they were to become the new core of torch wood. However, Moffat was to take over and instead focused on Sherlock and DW.

I believe that was only ever a fan rumour. Maybe some of the Torchwood production team had hopes, but the actors had other plans going forward so it was never more than a pipe dream.

 

Probably for the best, imo. We don't have an unpopular opinions thread in this section, do we? Mine is that I never liked Torchwood. I enjoyed the location-spotting, since it was filmed here in my home town, but I thought the writing was appalling and had no place in the Doctor Who universe. The only season I really enjoyed watching was the 3rd, Children of Earth, which was a thrill-ride while it lasted - but does not stand up as well in the cold light of hindsight. The idea behind Torchwood was sound, but the execution was awful.

You are wrong. RTD may have wanted to bring Mickey and Martha into Torchwood, but by the time Children of Earth went into production, the actors had moved on. This had nothing to do with Moffat taking over Doctor Who, as:
