DoctorWhoNews.com has picked up a report from TV Guide saying that there will be a third season for Torchwood to begin filming in August to begin tranmission on BBC1 next Spring (in the UK).

However only five episodes have been confirmed, which will consist of a five part story to be shown over one week. TV Guide has been told there could be more.

The TV Guide report includes a quote from Julie Gardner:
"We've decided to do a five-part mini-series, one big story that will run during one week, I wanted to make a really big noise about the show."

Torchwood season 3 gets mentioned by Andrew Mercado in yesterday Sydney Sunday Telegraph in a paragraph that also mentioned two other shows of special interest to Doctor Who fans:
"ABC British mystery series Jonathan Creek will film a Christmas special (its first in several years), cult sci fi series Blake's 7 is returning for two new episodes (after its 1981 finale) and Torchwood will have only five episodes for its third series."
