I haven't played the game yet, but the episode background info is gold dust for early Torchwood Institute stuff.

Centurian Incident of New Year’s Eve 1899, in Cardiff.
1907 schism
very different Torchwood
Subterranean Menace (incident #1918/056)

plus period detail like Harriet not being allowed a degree


Someone else - suspect they typoed the name at least once: "He remained with Torchwood Cardiff until 1930, at which point he transferred to London to work in a research and development capacity. He is best known for his work on cloaking shields. He died in 1957."
Cloaking... in 1930-57?

... I'm getting all sorts of ideas that make me want to get my GURPS books out. Like that Rift manipulator looked all sorts of Steampunk.

oooh, and

DR CHARLES QUINN
Quinn fell victim to an alien parasite at the age of 13 and was placed into quarantine by Torchwood. His life was saved by the work of the pioneering surgeon, Dr Jan Van Nellen, but it was necessary to keep him under observation for some years.

His education was provided by Institute staff



... Torchwood raised kids? Huh.

Plot. Bunny. Central.

In the messages section there's once again Tuesday 29th January 2008. Was it 30th circled on Toshiko's calendar? I thought it was 20th. And Friday. I'll have to watch again.

... hang on, I just noticed an email in Gwen's box that says 12/01/2007. the next one up says 18/12/2007 so is probably a typo.

The 'clothes for Tommy' one in Ianto's box is fun :)
