"Torchwood: Children of Earth" coming in July

It's been the subject of speculation and rumors but we finally have an idea of when we'll get to see Torchwood's third season, as BBC America's "Coming Soon" page lists the series as airing in July.

The third season, titled "Children of Earth" will tell a single story over five consecutive nights. I have to admit, my feelings towards Torchwood have long been pretty mixed, but I'm looking forward to seeing John Barrowman play Captain Jack Harkness once more and getting to see more of his romance with Ianto (Gareth David-Lloyd). Series creator Russell T. Davies, meanwhile, has written most of the season which should promise a strong story.

Right now the only news that could make me more excited is if a US air date for Davies' final three Doctor Who specials were announced (with Barrowman returning for a final adventure with the tenth Doctor). I'm really starting to feel the need for a Who fix.
