JB: I can't, I can't tell you anything about the show in itself, except the fact that it's a team of five people including Jack, and we have a place called the Hub, which is near the Opera House in Cardiff [in Wales, in the UK]. It's underground, this fictitious place. We are an organization that fights alien crime, and tries to figure out alien happenings on earth. A lot of the things that have happened with Doctor Who [in the second series, currently showing on UK television], the Torchwood team have been responsible for fixing or annihilating after the Doctor does his bit.
And the Doctor is saying, at the moment, like “Who the hell are these Torchwood people?” because our paths haven't crossed again, and I am frantically trying to find him.
AE: To find the Doctor.
JB: I'm trying to find the Doctor. Because there is something that the viewing public won't know yet, there's something about Jack that nobody knows. And he needs the Doctor.

In the commentary to the Doctor Who episode The Christmas Invasion, the production team referenced the Cardiff spacetime Rift from The Unquiet Dead and Boom Town as part of the explanation for Jack being on modern-day Earth.
More recent comments from the production team reveal that Jack has come to Cardiff in expectation that eventually the Doctor will return to the Rift to refuel, at which point Jack can reunite with him.
Though any connection between the two roles played by Eve Myles -- Gwyneth in The Unquiet Dead and Gwen in Torchwood -- is yet to be clarified, the former character has a strong personal bond with the spacetime Rift established in that episode, and around which the modern-day Torchwood has established its base of operations. _________________ Mistress should engage running mode

The first full trailer for Torchwood shows a partially converted Cyberman, apparently of African descent. According to The Daily Mirror, it is a female who was left behind from the final episode of Doctor Who, season 2 (Doomsday (Doctor Who)); it is unclear whether it is a product of the Mondas Cybermen or the ones from Cybus Corporation, both of which have been known to use elecrical shocks to stun or kill. The Cyber-woman in question has the same handle bar head piece as the Cybus Corporation units, although this could just be an coincidence.
The Doctor's severed hand from The Christmas Invasion can be seen pickled in a jar at the Torchwood Hub.
According to The Daily Mirror, one episode of Torchwood will see the team "get to fight a half-Cyberman half-woman who was left behind after the final episodes of Doctor Who." The BBC teaser trailer for the show features the partially cyber-converted or dis-assembled cyber-woman, who appears to be of African descent. The trailer shows her electrocuting Captain Jack. _________________ Mistress should engage running mode
