“Torchwood” Production Hits Technical Snag

August 4, 2006 By Sam Sloan 2 Comments

Submitted by: Lora Friedenthal (Dark Magees)

torchwood_1024768.jpeAll is not going well on the set of “Torchwood,” the “Doctor Who” spinoff series that was due to premiere this winter in the UK…at least, that’s the word from SciFi Pulse.

Due to certain camera technical difficulties the BBC has been forced to re-shoot much of the series. According to a source that contacted SciFi Pulse who is supposedly, “deep within Torchwood HQ,” the studio can’t get their flashy Panasonic HD cameras to work in low light causing the final product to look all shiney (not Firefly shiney) and glossy and the tapes had to be “junked.”

All those ruined scenes will now have to be reshot causing a delay in the show’s debut.

    The story is old and innacurate. This happened months ago and everything is on schedual.
    http://torchwoodtv.blogspot.com/ is reporting everything is fine. And I think the Torchwood site would say something about this if it were true.

    I’m glad SciFi Pulse got it wrong 🙂 The news made me sad!
