Big Finish is celebrating Torchwood’s tenth anniversary with a brand new release – The Torchwood Archive out now on CD or download.
The two-hour special reunites some of the show’s original stars John Barrowman, Eve Myles, Gareth David-Lloyd, Naoko Mori, Indira Varma, Kai Owen and Tom Price in a brand new story from writer James Goss. This special also features Samuel Barnett as Norton Folgate. Barnett stars as Douglas Adams’ in the new BBC America series Dirk Gently.
“Welcome, visitor. The Torchwood Archive provides a complete history of our Institute from its distant beginnings to the present day. When we founded our great enterprise in the year of our Lord 1879, we decreed that there should be a record of this achievement, stored at the very furthest limits of the British Empire. By visiting you are spreading that legacy, perhaps out through the skies. For now, I shall bid you a good day and welcome you to the Torchwood Archive. Do, please look around.”
The Torchwood Archive is a forgotten asteroid in the centre of a great war. Jeremiah is its first visitor in many centuries. He’s come to learn something very important. And the ghosts of Torchwood are waiting for him.
The Doctor Who spin-off arrived with a bang on the 22nd October 2006. What followed was 5 years of original, exciting, funny and adult drama still loved by many today. The show unofficially bowed out on the 9th September 2011.
As part of the birthday celebrations, Big Finish is also offering fans a special discount on both this new release and previous Torchwood stories, limited till 23:59 BST on October 28th.
