Torchwood – Zone 10

Hey Guys,

welcome to the newest Big Finish Torchwood adventure ‘Zone 10’. This time we get our lovely Toshiko Sato back. So this have to play before the end of season 2. I would say it plays before the episode they met the real Captain Jack Harkness. Because she tells them that she hadn’t seen her family in years, but in this episode she gets ready to go to the birthday of her father. So when this isn’t a mistake, than Torchwood makes sure that she will see her family again.

First Solo Mission

The radio signal that Tosh is investigating says ‘Toshiko Sato the truth is in Zone 10’. This signal is over 40 years old. So long before Tosh was born. But she feels like it is for her and when you look at what the signal means, she is right. So she travels alone to russia to find the truth. The Story is simple and not really surprising. Of course everything has in the end to do with the Comitee.

I love Tosh and i want more adventures with her but this adventure is not feeling so familiar as the other storys. When you her the others you are feeling like your characters you love back. But with Tosh there is something missing. I don’t know what is. Maybe because she is not so good at the radio thing like the others. Or it is just to long i saw Tosh in action. The last time i watched Torchwood is a few years ago…maybe that is the reason. The only thing i know is that something is missing. But i hope that Tosh is coming back for other adventures and that this feeling will be gone than.

Torchwood: Made you look

Hey Guys,

i totally tried to listen to this Big Finish Torchwood Adventure – Made you look – way before but i always fall asleep when i started listing. It is not really bad. I am just really tired after the vacation and working again is tiring me out too. But it doesn’t help that this adventures is again with Gwen. I really dislike her. I love everyone in Torchwood just not her and everytime i rewatch Torchwood i dislike her more. So this story is like i told you already about Gwen and it plays in the present after the last adventure with her ‘More than this‘.

The long ride

The story is actually really good. Like every story of Torchwood from Big Finish it has a catch and it is really amazing. The Story works with so like stuff and it is soooo little happening but it is far from boring. It is like a long journey. The only problem with that is that it is Gwen. So everyone who loves Gwen will love the story even more. For me it just works because i don’t really care about her. So with every other character the story be more interessting for me. But like i said the story is good. It is nothing fancy, but just that makes it so good.

The problem with that is again that i can’t tell much about. Because everything i tell you will take something from the story. But just that you got an idea. Gwen found a video where a girl is telling that this one town is dying and Gwen is go there to check things out from there everything turns out bad like always.

So just buy it and listen to it! It is good and it makes me really want a season three. But as far i know there is nothing about that there will be one?! Please!! We need a third season. But what we will definitly will have is a Torchwood special with Gwen, Jack and Ianto. Also in the cast is listed Rhys and Andy. Listen to the trailer: here.

Torchwood: Moving Target

Hey Guys,

welcome to the newest Torchwood adventure – Moving Target.This is adventure is with Susie Costello. I never liked her and i don’t thing the adventure will change that but we will be open about it. The story is obviously playing before first season were Susie is still alive on earth.

Before she fall

The Comettee is giving the earth free as hunting ground for aliens. The whole earth seems to stand still. Just Susie and a other woman seems to can be moving. Susie seems to be an accident and the woman is the person that is hunting. Susie and Alex – that is the other woman – are teaming up. This is not just before season one that is in a time she lost her believe in the humans, before she lost herself to the unkown. Alex is a completely different person than Susie. She is not having much self-esteem. She tries to make herself important through a husband and kid… she is using the still stand of the world to do everything. She sees it as an opportunity to be free of everything and do stuff you would never do.

What makes this is a great story is that we see the Susie Costello we all know in the end or a part of this person she will become like the robot that is always around tells us. Now we understand the future a little more.

Torchwood: Ghost Mission

Hey everyone,

something that “Big Finish Torchwood Adventure” always seems to do is that the adventures that i am the less excited about, are one of the best. Ghost Mission is an adventure with Andy Davidson and a new character Norton Folgate which hopefully will be in more adventures. These tow rock this adventure. It plays after Gwen got Torchwood started again. So i asume that it takes place after “Torchwood – More than this“.

Dream Team

We all know who Andy is. The little sweet police man that always stands on the side. He wants to be Torchwood and want to be part of the bigger picture. Norton is a sarcastic commentator. He always has to say something. Andy is always more gabbling than real taking and Nortons comments are always on point and sharp. They has so much chemistry.
To be honest i am shipping this two so much and hope that we will have alot more of this team. The first thing i did was search for not existing fanfics about them.

Let’s go on Mission

Norton is from the past and is like a ghost in the present – some alientec that is explained in the story but things like that just don’t stay in my head. He can’t touch anything and that brings them in a lot of funny and dangerous situation. Actually the whole story is about Norton testing Andy if he is good enough for the new Torchwood. This is how they do things now. He can’t really help Andy because of the touching thing but his comments always hit the right spot and always making me grin.

So much fun

This story has a really interessting dynamic. It is about the question why you would join Torchwood. It is about the feelings of Andy and it give us a part of the bigger picture of the whole Commitee story. The story is deep and dark in away, but the two characters make the story light and fun. You can listen to it and love and feel helpless with Andy get annoyed be Norton or laughing at Andy.

So everyone listen to this amazing story. I really love every bit of it and needs so much more material of these two characters together.

Torchwood: The Victorian Age

Hey Guys,

so I am back from my vacation in Prague and here is already ‘Zone 10’ waiting, but i never wrote about ‘The Victorian Age’. So here we go with the first Episode of the second season of Big Finish Torchwood adventure. Here we have Captain Jack Harkness again and Queen Victoria. It plays on the 17 May 1899.

Alien Hunt

This episode is a hunt through London. Jack is hunting down an Alien that should have been died and broke out of Torchwood when the Queen is there to inspect the Institute. The fun in this Story is the Queen that is going with Jack on the hunt. She is a great character. She sees the world in a different way and is desperate to help her people. She is not running after Jack, most of the time the Queen is running into the action and Jack needs to follow. It is a great dynamic between them. It seems like her walls are coming down and she has fun on the adventure with Jack and on the other hand is shocked from all the pain and death she sees and want to close Torchwood down. They seem close in some scene but there is always a distance between them.

It is a really great story and it is fun. It has humor, really great music and i can just recommand it.
