- Please no spoilers beyond this episode unless you see that later episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those episodes.
- This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
- If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
- The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.

Oh, interesting! I didn't realize this was actually supposed to be the end of the show. I'm glad it's not! lol We're going right into series 4, so I'll be watching the first episode next week and I'm really excited! :)
Britany Felix
Yeah, especially Jack. How do you continue to face people you admire and respect after doing what he did (again)? I get not being able to stick around in that moment.

I've never heard of those other two shows. I appreciate that you share your thoughts even when you know you're likely to be in the minority. I like hearing different perspectives because sometimes it helps me see things in a way I didn't previously. :)

Great series! You’re right in that this was supposed to be the end of the show, but only to be brought back for a final series 2 years later. I’m interested to see your reaction to the different vibe of series 4!

Just incredible. My body feels this series through and through. The ending feels so perfect too, everything that has happened is so traumatic that it makes sense everyone just have to go their own ways
Thomas Midena
not to mention his house was already surrounded by reporters reader for him to publicly give up his kids

Where would you have run to if you were Frobisher? It was worldwide. I said on Discord, but this rewatch made me sobbed unlike any previous ones before, no idea why it hit so hard this time, but it did. I hate this show, it's wonderful XD

I might as well get in here before all the praising fans :) As I said in the chat (and to paraphrase a friend of mine) Children of Earth is very good for Torchwood; poor as Science Fiction. I could write loads,but I don't want to be the lone voice of dissent. What I will say,though, is that CofE clearly models itself on (and very much wants to be) the TV series Quatermass (1950s/60s), and Edge of Darkness (1980s). All I can say is watch/react to those in order to see how this sort of 'Sci-fi/political conspiracy' really SHOULD be done.
