For me personally, Owen is the best character in whole Torchwood series ever created... I love him he was aside from Jack the best character in all of spin-off series of Doctor Who universe
i could literally talk about the nuances in burn gorman's performance as owen ALL DAY and i have no one i know in my life who watches torchwood and thus no one to yell with
29:34 Seeing as everyone knows Jack's immortal, I'm sort of surprised he didn't just shoot first, ask questions later. 31:21 If only if he hadn't gotten trapped by the worst Nuclear security measures ever then Ianto may still be alive.
@@danielmacgillivray3118 this is completely from Season 3 hindsight but if Owen was still alive he could have gone with Jack to face the 456 and then when everything goes to shit then Jack would just die and come back to life and Owen wouldn't be effected. Also it would have been interesting to see how he would have been effected by Miracle Day.
@@Jedi_Spartan i dont think owen would have been affected by the events of miracle day. It turned all mortals immortal and all immortals mortal. Owen was neither of those things. He was just dead. No heartbeat, no breath, no nothing. Given that miracle day didnt ressurect the dead, I think he would have been unaffected. However, I would kill to have seen him in children of earth/miracle day.
Ditto. On the surface Owen is a womaniser, an asshole, and a terrible person. Underneath... well, he's still all those things - but he has lost so much before Torchwood and you get the feeling that he's an asshole because he's sick of the world being the way it is... yet as a doctor he chose to save the people in it and with Torchwood he chose to save some little part of the world and make a difference. Owen is a complex character, and even if you never end up liking him, you can't help but respect a cynical man who still chooses to save people.
it's interesting how a character that's supposed to represent us and be likable I disliked the most, and the fact that she kept on living just by being creators fave was even more annoying
They cant without ianto owen and tosh but i think doing a series on torchwood two would be epic and if they set it at the same time as season 1 we can have cameos now that would be epic
They're doing an audio show with Owen. You're forgetting that this show is a spin off of Doctor Who. The show that pretty much made time travel an almost Sci-Fi standard. So, if they can bring the team back, they can. And besides, when we left them off, the guy from the CIA joined Torchwood because he became immortal like Jack. So they don't need the original characters to do the show. Other shows do similar things like Law and Order and NCIS.

Marther jones annoys me every time she says someone dead im shouting cheat compressions chest compressions!!! There was no pressure put on that wound at all. He was unlikely to survive but he had some chance if she did simple first aid
"My names Dr Owen Harper and i'm having one hell of a day" - Owen harper
I love that moment.
Owen maybe look like a bad guy outside but in his heart and in him he was so soft and so good❤️
He's the best!

Check out his stuff in the Torchwood range on the Big Finish website. His stories are consistently the strongest.
i think he def had the most development
I've only watched the first season of torchwood but owen is already my favourite character
It's not even remotely a competition until Children of Earth.
"Let's all have sex"
"And I thought the end of the world couldn't get any worse"
Owen Harper had one of the most amazing story arcs for a TORCHWOOD character!

How would ianto live?

Owen in Miracle Day that would be great
@@danielmacgillivray3118 or he would just drop dead and then get resurrected by the time it ends

his combined t-boy swag with ianto was so great they could no longer bear it 🙏
Started out disliking him, now he's my favorite. Huh.
Yeah, I suppose.
Yeah he is one of my favourites
Ditto.

I think that was kind of the point
Same here, I started out not a fan and then he became my favourite character and I didn't want him to die
Exit wounds left me crying 😭😭😭
@Quinn Thomas watched it today oof
I love owen’s theme, it’s so dramatic and perfect for him
... am I weak for skipping That Scene in Exit Wounds? I just... not again. Never again. I can't.
No, m8. It's totally fine...😭
when Owen was alive he felt dead and when he was dead he felt alive
It’s amazing how the characters you would hate the most in real life are the ones you find the most interesting on TV.

They should bring Torchwood back

The Ultimate UA-camr yeah but like they lost half the audience for season 4 and John Barrowman is 53 and in his cameo the lighting was really specific
Sadly, a lot of fans don't want Miracle Day 2.0
You need to get on Big Finish! They have an entire series of Torchwood audios with all the original cast back
One of the best characters in the Doctor who universe. I’d have loved an interaction between him and the doctor.
I like him. The actor, though I only saw him in Torchwood and Game of Throne, impressive acting
Been watching Torchwood again after many years, last episode of Miracle Day to go. You can't beat the first 2 seasons though... Owen was cool.
I've been doing the same and now I'm not feeling that great
I loved Children of Earth because it was so dark and also the inclusion of Rhys to the team but it still wasn't the same without Tosh and Owen
"I'm gonna die, might as well do it with eyebrows."
Kid knows what's up
12:29
After seeing Owens fate hearing Jack say “I will” hurts because I then realise Jack failed to save Owen
Did you have to..? 💔 But you're right
9:55 classic Owen :)
And I thought the end of the world couldn't get any worse
Owen harper will always be my favourite torchwood character.
Owen harper was such a good character
There should have been more from Combat . We really saw Owen well in that ep.
I started out not a fan of Owen and then he became my favourite character and I didn't want him to die. I preferred Owen in series 2 than series 1
you didn't even include the My name is Owen Harper clip. that is my favourite
he had the best storyline my god
I love Owen, I miss him but not as much as Ianto. He’s way better.
Owen was way cooler
I miss Owen, Tosh and Ianto. Three great characters that got killed off
I remember him in the cell when he vomited up all the alcohol he couldn't digest.
"OH, THAT IS THE SINGLE MOST DISGUSTING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN!"
Are we not going to mention Out of Time at all?
I miss owen so much! he's such an underrated character
When Ianto said Jack needs me i heard Jack eats me.
How nice
God I miss Owen so much
owen is THE poster child of tortured soul
"She's actually carrying pizza"
What about Jack & Owen in the police cell?
Owen my guy
7:52 This scene hurted me so much
Someone tell me why is the Torchwood channel uploading a lot recently
Could it be coming back🤔 who agrees?
Torchwood was released on bbc iplayer recently so its easier for people to get the clips.
Its due to Jack being back in dr who
They cant bring it back without ianto owen and tosh but i think doing a series on torchwood two would be epic and if they set it at the same time as season 1 we can have cameos now that would be epic
Quinn Thomas yup and I don't just want it there bcs I'm.scottish
Best torchwood character.
His and Tosh's deaths were so sad :(((
Love torchwood
They should never have shut this show down...
Second best whoniverse character ever.
19:13
Rav was in Torchwood
What? I’m not dead.
Owen had NO good moments in "Fragments?" Are we sure? Can we get someone to double-check that?
Good
I love how no one in this show has an exclusive sexuality
RTD said bi/pan rights
Owen I guy so nice they made him die twice
Hell yeah they did
owen is so torchwood
Owen.. 🥹😭😍
Countryside was the best episode
I never got why so many people found him attractive. He always looked weird to me and he worked better as character once he experienced death
Marther jones annoys me every time she says someone dead im shouting cheat compressions chest compressions!!!
There was no pressure put on that wound at all. He was unlikely to survive but he had some chance if she did simple first aid
I like Owen Harper
So basically Owen just erased his name from the book of death by fighting a skeleton
Can I do that to tho?
no because he still had to pay, he just got a delay
2nd best who character ever.
i have a bandana just like that
💙
🤣💙
