Torchwood canon question

[beccaelizabeth]

I've got muddled by fanon and GDL interviews, so I need to untangle some proper canon. Episode or tie in book, either works.

What is Ianto a fan of?

From the books I'm thinking James Bond and Abba.
Beyond that I can't remember which I read where.

James Bond gets referenced in both the books and the show (DW, series 4).

The Abba thing is a whole thing in Twilight Streets, and I wouldn't quite say Ianto's a fan. If I remember it right he grudgingly admits to its "poptastic danceability" while being irritable at Gwen for being nosy and a little thick about his sexuality. I don't think it ever gets mentioned on the show.

yeah, I've got the Abba quote around somewhere

ETA quote: "Fine. Then I admire the Andersson/Ulvaeus writing partnership as craftsmen and songsmiths. I believe 'One Of Us' may be the best song written about relationship break-ups ever, and I have a soft spot for the fusion of witty lyrical content and poptastic danceability of 'Voulez-Vouz', but let me make this absolutely clear: I bloody loathe 'Dancing Queen'. All right?"


I was wondering more if there's other things too
