Don't know much about history

People who have been within three miles or so of me recently have heard that I'm plotting a Spirit of the Century/Torchwood game.
And at this point, I'm trying to do some research on what, according to canon, has been mentioned on the show that would affect a 1920s team arriving in Cardiff after The War. Of course, there's the entire episode of "To the Last Man", which I'm going to have to mine for the initial major plot arc, but there's also a lot of Series Two of Doctor Who and I'm sure there are bits and pieces (especially off hand comments like "Oh this? It's been in the cabinet for ages") that have been dropped.
So this is where I turn to you, the people on my fList who have been watching and obsessing over the show. If you remember something that you think would impact Torchwood 3, either from the show or actual history, let me know. (I found mention in 1919, through a 'History of Cardiff' website, of a Spanish Flu epidemic and also an explosion at the dockyards that may become plot points.)

Also? If you want to help me in plotting (or just want to watch) and aren't interested in playing, let me know and I'll put you on the lock over at MyViciousCircle.

Ooooh! I'm too far away to play (unless you're considering an online game, but I didn't get that sense), but I looooooove playing puppet master... uh, I mean, helping to plot the player's doooooom... uh, I mean, contributing ideas here and there.

It turns out I can't post on the community with a filter, so I've posted it on this journal. And you're added to the filter. You'll have to let me know how much sense the post makes--it started out as my GM shorthand.
