Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Season 2 episode 5 'Adam': At the end of this chilling episode, how does Adam attempt to blackmail Jack into not erasing him?

Answer: By changing Jack's last happy memory of his family

Jack's last happy memory reappears later in season 2 as we see the return of Captain John and someone else from Jack's past, his brother Gray.

Answer: The villagers on their 'harvest'

Gwen has the most trouble with the villagers in this episode; she just cannot comprehend how humans could behave in this fashion. Finally she asks the leader why they carry out this 'harvest' of outsiders to the village, and receives the answer, 'Because it makes me happy.'

Answer: Their last breath

Jack can be seen in the old film clip too, he was spying on the 'Night Travellers' by performing with them as 'The man who can't die', which we know to be fitting!

4. Season 2 episode 12 'Fragments': How did Owen first meet Captain Jack?

Answer: At the hospital during Katie's operation

Katie was Owen's girlfriend who had an alien living inside her brain. We get to see a much more sensitive side to Owen in this episode, and understand why he behaves the way he does. Toshiko was imprisoned by UNIT for stealing plans from the government and it was Ianto who helped catch the pterodactyl. No-one just applies for a job at Torchwood!

5. Season 3 episode 2 'Day Two': What is the name of the alien who is controlling all the children?

Answer: The 456

We never really find out who the 456 are, or even if there is more than one of them. This just adds to the terror factor of the mini-series.

6. Season 1 episode 12 'Captain Jack Harkness': Jack and Toshiko find themselves trapped in 1941, but who is the creepy manager who can seemingly flit between the times?

Answer: Bilis Manger

Bilis is a crucial part of the last two episodes of season 1, as he manipulates Gwen into opening the Rift, which brings out Bilis' master, Abaddon, who begins to stalk the city, killing all who fall into his shadow.

7. Season 1 episode 13 'End of Days': What happens to finally persuade Gwen that they should open the Rift?

Answer: Rhys is murdered in the Hub

In the episode, the team see familiar faces from their pasts who try to convince them to open the Rift. Ianto sees a human Lisa from the episode "Cyberwoman", Owen sees Diane from the episode "Out of Time" and Toshiko sees her mother. Jack insults the team to try to stop them opening the Rift, he recites Gwen and Owen's relationship, Toshiko and Mary's, Owen's fight with a Weevil, and Ianto hiding Lisa.
This leads the team to turn on Jack and attack him, Gwen punches him and Owen shoots Jack in the head, not realising that Jack cannot die.

8. Season 2 episode 4 'Meat': What does the team discover inside a haulage truck, which leads them to begin investigating, and to begin with, suspect Rhys?

Answer: Alien meat being sold as normal meat

The team first suspect Rhys as the meat is found in one of his haulage company's trucks. However, Rhys is innocent and ends up finding out about Torchwood and even helps out the team!

9. Season 2 episode 6 'Reset': This episode sees the return of which familiar face and old friend of Jack?

Answer: Martha Jones

Martha is called in to help Torchwood after they discover a series of strange murders, where the victims had been cured of incurable diseases. She is the only one of the Doctor's companions to appear in "Torchwood."

10. Season 3 episode 5 'Day Five': What sacrifice does Jack have to make at the end of this episode in order to save millions of children from the 456?

Answer: Kill his grandson by re-routing the alien signal through him

Jack realises the only way to save all the children from being sold as 'drugs' is to sacrifice his own grandchild. He cannot cope with the grief this brings about, and at the end of the episode he bids farewell to the Earth and Gwen, to go travelling to find a new life for himself.
