Torchwood Revisited

It was great to hear these familiar voices! The stories were fine, some better than others, but I was listening to spend time with old friends, not to listen to complex plots. There were some reallllllllly sad bits at the end, to be fair.

I GOT MY TORCHWOOD FIX!!!

This is incredible!!! I felt like I was watching this with my minds eye. It was detailed and very exciting. I hated that Torchwood ended but this has really given me a way to still enjoy what I’ve been missing. The storylines were very interesting and complete. I never felt that any detail was left out of any of the collections. And I never felt it needed more, it was all there in one package. HOWEVER, (speaking of more) a few more episodes like this would be greatly appreciated...I give top marks, in every category.

Plot Twist

The ending was surprising! Without giving it away I can say that the ending illuminated the deep love for Yanto that Jack is able to hide, even from himself.

Great Program

It was so good to have the cast of Torchwood back together again. The stories were very good, I thought and very well performed. The last story was a total surprise! Highly recommend.

A great companion to the TV show

If you loved the first couple seasons of Torchwood, I highly recommend these BBC audio dramas. These stories are set after season 2, and are very well written and produced. If you like these plays, I really recommend the Big Finish audio dramas as well!

Sci-fi fans love it!

I loved the TV series Torchwood and this Radio show lives up to it. It tells the story of Torchwood after the TV series ended.
I love the full cast of characters and special effects. Since it is a radio production, the stories are faster paced than most audiobooks.
Definitely worth it.

Absolutely love Torchwood.

Definitely what I needed. Had a great time going on adventures with the Torchwood gang and Martha. In typical Torchwood fashion I laughed and I cried..

Just like the show.

the episodes were just like the show. I'm glad they're wrapped in two different segments instead of trying to stretch this out into longer stories. I like the fact they brought the original cast back for the stories.

Torchwood Audio at its Finest (Again).

Brilliantly written and narrated stories - they always capture my imagination from begining to end!

Fun for a long time fan

I don't know if I would recommend this to someone who doesn't know anything about Torchwood, but if you're already a fan, it was fun and well-done. Dead Line is a must hear for Ianto fans!
