Continuity: Owen's memory is "4 years ago," i.e. approximately 2004; however, when Jack takes Owen to the Hub, the mysterious "hand-in-a-jar" is present in the Hub. Dr Who lost his hand in the Christmas episode of 2005, so the hand-in-a-jar couldn't be there in 2004. more

In this penultimate episode from the second season, the Torchwood team are lured into a potentially fatal trap when a building they are exploring is wired to explode. Covered in debris and fighting to survive, the various team members remember how they were first introduced to Torchwood.
This is a great episode and its fragmented nature works well. The episode builds to a terrific climax, leaving the viewer ravenous for the final episode.
9 out of 10. This has been a cracking series and I dearly hope that many more seasons will follow.
