Torchwood faces its final battles in two boxsets this Autumn

 

The regular Torchwood range may have come to an end, but its many beloved characters will continue defending planet Earth. And their Big Finish adventures will come to a dramatic climax in the upcoming miniseries Torchwood: Legacy.

Due to be released across two audio drama box sets in September and October 2027, Torchwood: Legacy comprises twelve half-hour episodes, which together tell an epic story spread across the eras of the Torchwood Institute’s history.

The ensemble cast includes many names familiar to long-time listeners of the Torchwood range. They include original television characters Ianto (Gareth David-Lloyd), Rhys (Kai Owen), Andy (Tom Price), and Yvonne (Tracy-Ann Oberman). They’re joined by Big Finish’s own generation of Torchwood agents – Mr. Colchester (Paul Clayton), Norton (Samuel Barnett), Orr (Samantha Béart), Ng (Alexandria Riley), Tyler (Jonny Green), and Roberta (Louise Jameson.)

Others appearing include the Doctor’s former companion Ace (Sophie Aldred), Kreg (Dan Starkey), and new addition Mr. Lonely (Jordan Renzo.)

 

Each box set comprises six 30-minute episodes, listed below. Volume 1: The Living Will Fall, September 2027

2026: There’s a super-weapon in the sky, the billionaires have gone missing, and sinister forces are fighting over a forgotten Nazi secret. Ace needs Torchwood’s help.

• Cornucopia by Tim Foley
• Meet Lonely by James Goss
• Yvonne Hartman’s Ultimate Weapon by Gareth David-Lloyd
• The Corn Mother by William Carroll
• Hitler’s Last Secret by James Goss
• Pangea by Ash Darby

Volume 2: The Dead Shall Rise, October 2027:

2026: Oh dear, Torchwood, it’s all gone wrong for you. The night is closing in and there’s nowhere left to run. Ask yourself this – is your workplace really worth dying for?

• Roberta’s Gone to Iceland by Guy Adams
• What It Is to Lose by Tim Foley
• Viking Funeral by Guy Adams
• Hullaballoo by Ash Darby
• Torchwood’s Last Stand by Patrick O’Connor
• Rainbow Bridge by James Goss

Further details on each story will be revealed at a later date.

 

“Legacy is the kind of story we always wanted to tell”

Producer James Goss said: “Legacy is a celebration of Torchwood’s twentieth anniversary and also ten years of Torchwood at Big Finish, so it’s celebrating both the show and also all the various Big Finish ranges.

“It’s the kind of story we always wanted to tell – leaping about through time and answering several secrets at the heart of Torchwood. It brings back some very popular characters, and it’s 12 episodes of very good fun sci-fi. It’s also not exclusive – it’s designed so that, if this is the first time you meet these characters, you can go off and discover more about them rather than feeling baffled.”

Torchwood: Legacy Volumes 1 and 2 are now available to pre-order in a multibuy bundle for just £38 (as digital downloads to own), exclusively here.

Doctor Who’s Karen Gillan is heading to Apple+ to join Harrison Ford and Jason Segel in hit dramedy Shrinking

Doctor Who star Karen Gillan has joined the cast of Shrinking for Season Four next year. The actor, who played companion Amy Pond opposite Matt Smith’s Doctor for three series, is the latest addition to the Apple+ dramedy. The series stars Jason Segel and Harrison Ford as therapists breaching ethical guidelines to help their patients make breakthroughs as they deal with their own life changing problems. Whether Gillan is playing a new therapist at the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Center or a new client is still unknown. However, we do know that Season 4 will take place after a substantial time jump from this year’s season, and feature an entirely new arc plot for the show. Season Three ended with major life changes for many of the characters, so it’s not clear yet how Gillan’s will fit into their new situations.

 

Demonic possessions, immortal swordsmen, royal intrigue and more  video game action also all feature in Gillan’s upcoming projects

Karen Gillan continues to be one of Doctor Who’s most prolific alumna. Shrinking is just one of several projects fans in which fans will be able to see her over the next year or so. Later this year she’ll back in the game as Ruby Roundhouse in Jumanji: Open World. After that, she’ll also be starring in horror movie Blasphemous, described as ‘The Exorcist meets Training Day‘ as a demonically possessed killer battling two priests played by Clive Owen and Josh Hutcherson.

Meanwhile, Gillan has a major supporting role in the new remake of Highlander, also out next year. There she’ll be Heather, first love of Henry Cavill’s Conor Macleod as he’s trained in the ways of the immortals by Russell Crowe’s Rameriez. Finally for now, as Blogtor Who previously reported, the Scottish actor will star as Queen Mary Tudor in Fools, as she and her fool (Patsy Ferran) try to protect themselves from the sinister political forces around them.
