Frobisher was the one who put the kill order out on Torchwood, which naturally upset me. e deserved his fate in CoE as far as I'm concerned. That was why I wasn't sure I could watch the Twelfth Doctor. His natural Scottish accent certainly helped, he sounded nothing like Frobisher and didn't look like him either.
Revisiting all those past companions seemed totally unnecessary to me, especially fixing Jack up with a replacement for Ianto, as if that would fix Jack, make him suddenly happy again after everything he'd just been through =(
Torchwood had massive potential but then it was just wasted by focusing on the least interesting character to the exclusion of the others. I don't think the show needed the Gwen character at all, and would have been better without her. Everything the audience needed to know they could have got from the team's interactions, and maybe the characters who got caught up in whatever came through the Rift, just before they were retconned.
