Just watched all five episodes in one go.
See, this is how I like my fiction -- exquisitely painful. And this is how I like my science fiction, dealing with people making difficult choices on an epic scale. I don't know if they'll go on from here (or how they could), but if they keep telling stories like this one, I'm on-board.
I kind of hope they don't go on, though. It's like Torchwood was building to this, a beautiful culmination of character that allowed the plot to really sing and reach that heart-breaking critical mass at the end. Brilliant.
