Daniela Denby-Ashe, everyones dream girl from next door in
hit comedy My Family, makes a sexy guest appearance in BBC "adult"
drama Torchwood this week.
She plays an alien who strikes up a relationship with one of
the female members of Captain Jacks crew (played by Naoko Mori). Not really
nudity, but still, quite an interesting storyline so far I think you’ll agree
for Daniela to be involved in! "One for the boys" is one way I have
heard this episode described as the sex leads to trying to infiltrate Torchwood.
Just incase you’ve just arrived from the other side of the
galaxy and missed all the hype, Torchwood is a "spin off" of the
institution that is Doctor Who. It’s an organisation above the law that deals
with alien encounters in the early part of the twenty first century and the
programme allows, with its later timed broadcast, more stronger content
including - yes - matters of a sexual nature!
An earlier episode may well have produced the best girl on
girl screen kiss on Uk tv this year, as the new recruit to the team (played by
Eve Myles) was trapped in a holding cell with a girl whose body was taken over
by another alien life force that needed to survive off, ahem!, well
"orgasmic energy"! When she snogged it out with Eve, she found it was
no good trying it with women, but made very pleasant viewing for all those
watching!
It may well cause debate among those loyal to the great
original programme with the Tardis, but I tried to just settle into watching it
regardless and find it alright, so far, as it tries to make an impact in the
ratings wars.
Torchwood (Greeks Bearing Gifts, with Daniela Denby-Ashe
guesting) is on BBC Three tonight, Sunday, at 10pm.
Its repeated later in the week on Wednesday night on BBC2 and Friday night on
BBC Three again - both after nine.
For a little more naked flesh though, check out Sky Movies
line-up this coming weekend as two of the most beautiful women in Hollywood
today show off some of their hottest work from last year. Domino (Keira Knightley with a topless sex scene, on Sky movies 2, on Friday night at 10pm) and Into the Blue (Jessica Alba looking
visually stunning in a bikini, Sky Movies 1 premiere on Saturday night at 8pm) hit the small screen.
