For the past few weeks, I've been posting nominations for
Television Without Pity's Tubey Awards. Well, voting is over, and the results are in. After receiving eight nominations, Torchwood won in one category:
Worst WTF Moment: Ianto dies.
The Doctor and the TARDIS were also the staff's picks in the category of "Best Almost-Romantic-But-Not-Quite Relationship."
