The sex was the part I liked least in the early Torchwood, to be honest, for all that I write and read slash - it got in the way of the plot too often. And when you think about it, even at the beginning it was never always shiny happy people. They didn't even appear to like each other very much; Suzie was blown away almost at once, Owen was a jerk, and Ianto was keeping his cyber-girlfriend in the basement (causing a bloodbath later on).
I tended to find the characters' relationships with guest characters more interesting than those within the team. And I love a good dose of angst :-)
