We, the undersigned, have just finished watching the season finale of Torchwood (episode 2x13 - Exit Wounds) and we are not pleased with the direction you have chosen to take things.

We feel that the character of Toshiko Sato, as played by Naoko Mori, should return for the third season of Torchwood. We feel that her character, while given a noble death, has gotten the short end of the stick over the last two seasons and has not been given the full chance to become the fully realized character that the fans know is possible. This seems entirely unfair, and we humbly request that a way is found for Naoko Mori to reprise her role as Toshiko, and for the character of Toshiko to continue to be one of the main characters of Torchwood.

Thank you for your time.

    • Please bring Tosh back; she wasn't even a full character when you killed her off.

    • Torchwood with Toshiko won't be the same! She is needed because she brings out the joy of wonder and of life in the gruop. Please bring her back in season three.

    • Bring Tosh Back! Torchwood actually can't function without her! although she's underappeciated by a lot of people- I believe that without her the entire team would fall apart. BRING HER BACK NOW!

    • She was for me personally the best character on Torchwood, one of the most realistic ones and it's such a loss for the series to lose her. She should be brought back. Hey, the show is sci-fi after all!

    • I know character deaths are necessary in any television program, but Tosh, I feel, was not given enough time to show her potential and needs at least 1 more series before leaving the show. Please reconsider!

    • Toshiko was one of my favourite characters, I understand that characters have to die off for the show to develop, however, I think it entirely wrong to kill off one of the most essential characters in the show. Perhaps something has already been thought of for season 3, to bring back some of the characters, who knows? But I would ask for something to be done to bring her back, in all honesty I don't think I'll be watching Torchwood again now Naoko's gone.

    • I think you could've found a better way to do the finale. Killing off two characters is a bit too much

    • Even though I thought Tosh's final moments were some of the best acting in the world from Naoko, I don't want her to stay dead permantly as she was a fantastic girl with many great querks. Thank You.

    • Tosh was given so much room to grow this season - and we, the fans, really felt like she was finally living up to her potential. She's endeared herself to many of us, especially carried through with Naoko Mori's excellent performances. It would be a vital loss to the Torchwood team if her character is not brought back.

    • killing off 2 fifths of the main cast in one fould swoop is just too much. I will never ever stop watching Torchwood, but I fear this could be the death of this show.....

    • Naoko is an amazing actor and plays the role of Tosh perfectly. We just begin to know her and her capablilites and you get rid of her... why break up such a perfect group? Sure, they might be screwed up and they all definetly have problems but they work, they fit. Please bring Tosh back. And Owen too. With sci-fi anything is possible.

    • I absolutely adored Toshiko. She was one of the reasons I continued to watch. I'm not sure I want to return to the show next season with not only half the cast gone, but one of my favorite characters. It will not be Torchwood.

    • Give her own Toshiko series. In that way they can not kill her off. Naoko Mori is too good to be off air, candidate for the next Doctor or Romana, anything, Bring her back.

    • You could have episodes where Jack remebers a past operation. Or the Time Rift regenerates Tosh, possibly Owen too.

    • i remember reading somewhere that another set of risen mittens to bring Tosh back were kinda just hanging in the plot bunny ether... quite frankly, that's a crap idea... but this is bloody scifi! there's gotta be something else out there that can bring people back from the dead. I want Tosh back, but atleast try to think of some newer ideas. I know it's a bit unrealistic to hope that Tosh would be back for any kind of perminance during season 3, but you can't just lock her up in the torchwood vaults and forget all about her!
