John Barrowman has said that Torchwood could return as a TV series.

“I have a phone conversation on Monday to see how we can get it back on television,” Zap2it quotes Barrowman as saying at this year’s San Diego Comic Con.

Of course this isn’t the first time Barrowman has claimed the show could be back over the years, but he sounds confident it could be more than wishful thinking this time: “The fans know me well enough, I’m only going to say it if I mean it and believe it.”

He added: “If you really believe in Torchwood, get the [upcoming Titan] comic. Get this series going, it’s like a Kickstarter. If you buy the comic, you’ll show your support … we need Captain Jack back on the screens.”
