Torchwood – The Dying Room

Hey Guys,

here we are with the final of the third season of Big Finish Torchwood – The Dying Room. I must say that this story is the weakest, but still amazing. The story is not bad and i like the idea of telling the story.

Biggest and only problem

The problem I have with this story are the characters. We have 4 persons in this story. The two main characters. The first one is an SS-Offizier and the other is a man who get questioned by the SS. The whole story is about this and the story that leads to this. In the story that leads to this we have two more characters. Gabriel the son of the man and a lady the man met. But none of the characters get me. I don’t developed any feelings or likings for a character. That is why the story lost for me. Because no matter how good the story is when the characters are not sympathic than it is no good.

Story flow

The story is told in two levels. The first one is the interrogation and the second one is what the man tells his Interrogator. The first time I listened to the story I was really tired and got a little confused but when you listen to it when you are awake than it is really easy to follow. Like all the other Torchwood stories this one as a surprising turn. There were actually a few things that were clear for me but other stuff I didn’t thought of.

Listen to The Dying Room or not

Definitely go listen to the story. Yes it couldn’t get me but I still think it is a really great story. Also it is Torchwood so there is no reason to actually not listen to it. I am really excited for the next season. The have a few really promising combinations like Ianto and Owen but my favorite will be Andi and Norton.
