Torchwood

Day One - S1-E2

Trivia: When Jack leaves the club, followed by the Torchwood team, and they head into an alley, there are human legs sticking out of a dustbin. These are extraneous to the plot, and never mentioned onscreen, despite Torchwood surveying the area. (00:13:05)

Trivia: The "Mister Saxon" references from series 3 of Doctor Who spill into its spin off series in this episode, as a "Vote Saxon" poster can be seen on the wall of the abandoned dance hall.

Captain Jack Harkness - S1-E12

Factual error: When Gwen finds Toshiko's hidden message from 1941, she realizes that it was written in blood, and her flashlight reveals the bright red letters on the now-yellowed piece of paper. But after 60+ years, the iron in the blood would oxidize. The writing on the note should be rust-brown, not red. (00:33:40)
