Hey Guys,

welcome to the 2nd adventure of the 5th season of Big Finish’s Torchwood ‘The Green Life’ with Jack and Jo Grant. This was one of the adventure I really looked forward to. I really love Jo. She was such a great character and pairing her with Jack promise so much fun. This is a sequel to ‘The Green Death’.

Bickering

I could just listened to them bickering all the time. It is so much fun to listen to them. They they interact is so perfect and so Jo and Jack. Jo got older and she lived her live without the Doctor for a while and I always love the Doctors Companion who don’t regret leaving him. I really loved it when the show us that these people had great time with the Doctor and their miss him but the actually are happy in their life. Jo is one of the people who tried to make so much out of her life. She fought to make the world better, she traveled and never regretted leaving.

Difference

Jo left the Doctor and it has her decision and Jack got left and never got quiet over it. He also use to find a solution with a gun when Jo just don’t like them. It is quiet interesting to see them fighting with each other to find a way to achieve the same thing. I really loved this story. It is a typical Torchwood story. Torchwood itself like a big gray area and they never have a totally ‘white’ solution. Torchwood is just so imperfect and it is so love to see. Because Doctor sometimes things he so much better than the humans. The third Doctor for me had always this way of thinking that he has the only right solution. I think most solutions of Torchwood would get his approval. But they tried their best. So it is great to see Jo understanding that. She doesn’t like Jack solution but she listened to him and understands.

High Expections

I had such high expectations for this adventure and it was even better than I imaged it. I think they captured not just Jo’s character perfectly but also the feeling you had watching ‘The green Death’ and the UNIT. It shows the past and how it is now. I really love it. Jack and Jo are a great time and I had a lot of fun listening to this adventure.
