This plot is total crap. As with COE already the basics aren’t working. And again it’s nothing you can explain away with the SciFi object of the show, given that there still is any I didn’t read anything which indicates that’s still a SF-Show. Population would not rise over night. Even if no one dies anymore it still would take around 14 years till one gets fertile, nine months till a child is born. And woman would stop to be fertile around their 50. As the survival would mostly mean that older people do not die, population would indeed grow but not in such a quick time to such an amount. It would take years till this results in such a huge growing of population that it would be a problem.

Besides it would take at least weeks if not months till governments will have made the write connections. Most countries of this world don't have a functioning registration system with deaths and newborns. A lot of countries don't even know the real amount of their citizens. And even if realisation finally hits look how long countries debating about natural preservation - since years. They never would be able to come up with any solution like camps in a couple of days?

RTD really needs to see a psychiatrist for his paranoia towards governments. And he should stop writing immediately because this is not only a totally illogical plot idea it's stolen again. Classic Star Trek already dealt with the question what happens if people do not die and other movies/books did as well.

You are actually going to complain about the story line! Come on, all of the SYI-FI shows are make believe. Of course it could never really happen. Where did your imagination go?

I am very excited that Torchwood is coming back and so is quite a few other people I know.
