Chapter 2 link
The Doctor arrives in Cardiff and parks the TARDIS over the entrance to
Torchwood on the Plass. The Doctor is not his characteristically manic self
and is not showing his usual enthusiasm for meeting new people. In this case
Ianto and Gwen. It is evident in this chapter that the Doctor is having
problems with his memory of past and more recent events which Jack points out
to him.
The Doctor is avoiding physical contact and shows discomfort from the
friendly pat on the back from Jack. The Doctor’s affect is totally out of
character for him, as Martha noted, there was no passion in his voice nor any
energy in his mannerisms. It is the first time in this chapter that the
Doctor physically is unwell when he has his first dizzy spell in front of
Martha and Jack. Martha suggests that the Doctor not leave immediately but
stay a few days in flat she shares with her fiancee Tom Milligan.
