The Chicago Tribune has revealed the names of the writing team drafted by Russell T Davies for Torchwood Series 4 – and it’s a pretty impressive list!

Torchwood Series 4 is a co-production between BBC Wales, BBC Worldwide and the Starz network, with Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner resuming Executive Producer roles.

- John Shiban (Breaking Bad, Supernatural, The X-Files)
- Doris Egan (House, Tru Calling, Dark Angel)
- Jane Espenson (Game of Thrones, Battlestar Galactica, Buffy)
- John Fay (the only UK writer on the team – he wrote two episodes of Torchwood: Children of Earth)

The shows listed above represent some of the biggest genre programming series over the past 20 years – it’s a superb list that promises much for Torchwood Series 4, due to be screened in 2011 with stars John Barrowman and Eve Myles joined by a new international cast.
