A new series of Torchwood co-produced by BBC Wales and US company Starz Entertainment has been commissioned, the BBC has confirmed.

The 10-episode series will star John Barrowman and Eve Myles, and Torchwood creator Russell T Davies will lead the writing team. Storylines will include locations in the US and around the world.

Ben Stephenson, Controller of BBC Drama Commissioning said: "We have a long history of working with many US networks, but it is incredibly exciting to be working with Starz for the first time. Torchwood will burst back onto the screen with a shocking and moving story with global stakes and locations that will make it feel bigger and bolder than ever."
