not enough people are torchwood fans in 2023. like, if this shit was airing now instead of like sixteen years ago then tumblr gays would be eating this shit up. if the big finish stuff was more easily available, people would probably also be eating it up. janto and jyler would be a ship war (a heavily to one side ship war, but a ship war nonetheless). the colchester-price fans would be happily eating popcorn at the side. everyone would be an orr and tosh fan. gwen and yvonne would be tumblr sexywomen. there'd be people picking out everything burn gorman has ever been in. there would be essays about why ng should/shouldn't be hated. andy davidson would still be lurking in the background. myfanwy would have more canon appearances.

The last three Torchwood monthlies of the current bundle have been revealed!

The Boy Who Never Laughed by Joseph Lidster, due for release in May 2025

Tyler Steele has seen so much working both for and against Torchwood. But he’s in for the shock of his life when he wakes up and discovers just who he slept with the previous night…

Tyler is joining the monthlies! I'm curious to see how he fares when not with the Torchwood team.

Child Free by Holly Robinson & George Fletcher, due for release in July 2025

Looking for a mysterious energy signal, Suzie bumps into Hywel, who is having doubts about getting married tomorrow. The next morning, they wake up with a baby and a whole lot of problems.

Yay! More Suzie!

Salvage by Gareth David-Lloyd, due for release in September 2025

Esther and Cody are on the run from their care home. Esther wants to find their parents, Cody wants to finish the latest series of his podcast. Stumbling on a junkyard of alien artefacts, Esther and Cody’s lives take a sudden turn. Scrap merchant Jed has spent years trying to awaken a particularly sullen object. But the Torchwood SUV has a message for Esther and Cody.

The news article says:

And September’s Salvage explores what happened to Torchwood’s iconic SUV, with Gareth David-Lloyd providing both the script and the voice of the SUV.

Very excited about both the fact that we'll know more about the SUV and the fact that it's probably a story from an outsider POV.

Torchwood: The Boy Who Never Laughed

This audio drama is probably the very first time I have viscerally needed a character to be hugged because Jesus's Christ. I knew that shit with the teacher was going where it went and it was just so sad. The whole thing was just SAD. Like this is the first audio in a while where I've just sat staring at the wall. This is what happens when I wish for more content for my favourite characters. They go through the horrors and I cry about it. Typical. Anyway going to go listen to Among us again to cry over the new gangs shenanigans again.

Rani Takes on the World : Beyond Bannerman Road (1)

After watching the minisode from 2020 called Farewell Sarah Jane, you can't help but think you want to see all these characters back. Lucky for me, when I saw it, this boxset had just come out, and I have to say I was impressed.

Every story is different and better than the last, the characters' evolution is perfectly managed considering the big gap between the TV show and the events from these three stories. It really has the ambition to be a true successor to the Sarah Jane Adventures by putting Rani as the front woman and working on very qualitative scripts.

I honestly cannot wait for the next one to come out and I sincerely hope it catches up on the high expectations this boxset helped build within me.

Here is a story by story review, beware some spoilers here and there, even though I made my best to make it spoiler free.

Here Today

I only have one word for this one: wow. First of all, the time loop is well executed and the urgence of the situation is very well conveyed by the twists, the characters and the music.

I can't not mention the jaw-dropping scene at the end of the first time loop. Absolutely chilling. You have to listen to it to understand how much of a shock it is.

You don't have a second to yourself when listening to this one, the story just takes you and you have to get along.

Destination: Wedding

I'm not gonna lie, it was kind of hard for me to get into this one at first but in the end I loved it so much more than the pilot! You can easily guess the solution to the mystery but never without a doubt.

Gita is just the perfect comic character, every single sentence of her is an instant punchline, and she's also got a lot of heart.

Rani seems to be kind of in a young adult life crisis, because once again she's comparing herself to her same aged peers, even more so in this one with the pressure of her mother onto her. These are themes that resonated with me a lot since I am approximately the same age as Rani is supposed to be in this and I actually am going through all of this.

Also, I wasn't sure I understood it correctly in the first story but now it's clear: Phoenix is a non-binary person! Yay! And they're dating Clyde, a major character!

In the end this one was pretty enjoyable even though it had a lot less action and tension than the one before, but the character work and the mysterious plot make it an absolute banger!

The Withching Tree

Wow, this one was definitely my favourite! So chilling! I started listening to it during a night road trip and it was really frightening!

The plot twist is really surprising and every new happening is a shock.

I really liked that this episode was kind of an episode of Rani's podcast, I hope they do that on the second series as well.

It was very well orchestrated to make the tension build up to the great reveal, which is so satisfying to listen to. Honestly a great piece of drama.

This is the first time I had heard about Tyler Steele because I didn't listen to any of the Torchwood stuff, so at first I was like "Who does he think he is? Why is he so ok with aliens?" but then I looked him up and it made a lot more sense.

I also loved that the Blue Box Files were being mentioned since I'm also currently listening to Doctor Who Redacted so it was a really nice touch from Big Finish to make Rani and Samira talk about them!
