- Gwen_Cooper abstract "Gwen Cooper is a fictional character portrayed by Welsh actress Eve Myles in the BBC science-fiction television programme Torchwood, a spin-off of the long-running series Doctor Who. The lead female character, Gwen featured in every episode of the show's 2006-2011 run, as well as two 2008 crossover episodes of Doctor Who. Gwen appears in Expanded Universe material such as the Torchwood novels and audiobooks, comic books and radio plays.Within the series narrative, Gwen is a South Wales Police officer who discovers the mysterious Torchwood Institute, into which she is recruited by Jack Harkness (John Barrowman). Gwen initially operates as a field agent, bringing a humane and rounded approach to the team's investigations of the extraterrestrial. Her tribulations at work take a toll on her personal life in series one (2006); though her marriage to Rhys (Kai Owen) keeps her grounded as her responsibilities increase in series two (2008). In Children of Earth (2009) and Miracle Day (2011), after Torchwood is destroyed to conceal a government conspiracy, Gwen must operate under her own mandate, finding herself having to protect humanity from itself, in addition to external threats.Gwen is introduced as an audience surrogate, in the mould of the \"girl next door\" archetype, much like the perennial \"companion\" character in Doctor Who. However, as the series progressed, the production team chose to illuminate contradictory aspects to her character; despite her strong moral conscience her own actions and behaviours are often ethically ambiguous. The characters of Rhys and Jack are used as literary foils; highlighting the character's suspension between her domestic life and her addiction to work. The contrast between Gwen's militancy and conventionally feminine roles is itensified in later series, when the character simultaneously fulfills the role of action heroine and mother.Reviewers have generally responded positively to the conflicting elements of Gwen's characterisation and Eve Myles' portrayal, though elements of her prosaic characterisation were initially criticised. Portraying Gwen also increased Eve Myles' profile as an actress, and has been cited as effective in both promoting the country of Wales and combatting a perceived prejudice against the Welsh accent. Eve Myles received a Welsh BAFTA for the first series of the show and has been nominated for several other acting awards across each of Torchwood 's four series'.".
