It'd be nice for a little less axe-grinding in Torchwood. The appeal of making it a more poly orientated show (which it would be if they brought Captain Spike back as a regular) means that the sex-monster-of-the-week can hook up with anyone, rather than just whoever happens to be single at that moment.
I'll agree that the Christmas specials should be something spectacular. Runaway Bride was probably the weakest of the three so far, and the lead in at the end of S2 was poor as well. Generally when I see something in a series that doesn't meet the standard my reaction is "Meh, they can't ALL be awesome." As long as there's a redeeming feature per episode, I'm happy.
Jack Davenport is in Coupling, along with Sarah Alexander who is yummy. Jack Davenport is simply made of win. I've been avoiding Ultraviolet, but if he's in it I might check it out.
