Love Torchwood: House of the Dead because it’s like. What if Eurydice just refused to go with Orpheus. What if she thought it was selfish and stupid and just wouldn’t. And like. What are you meant to do with that lol. Why am I crying. How do I stop.

'You left the toilet seat up again!'

'Why do you care? We're both men.'

'It just looks better!'

I'm sobbing. Actual tears.

I actually love the Torchwood audio drama because it feels like a fanfic but it's all canon

Thinking about how Jack thought Ianto was an angel when he lost his memories

huge shoutout to Big Finish and GDL for tearing my heart out through my throat and wringing it out like a towel

Why Restricted Archives Entries 031-049 is my favourite Torchwood Audio.

I haven't listened to many so far, and of course nuance is a thing, but I found this audio unique because of how entertaining it is with simply one character in one setting. Obviously this is a testament to everyone's favourite autism boy <3

The ending is kind of enigmatic ?? Because its like "I was only pretending to be a saddo to manage the alien threat >:D" but at the same time what we are shown for the whole audio that this is Ianto when he's not pretending, when he's not being polite. Maybe it shows that he's confident in his true personality to the extent where he's willing to accept that it can be used as a target to the threat, and takes it in his pride. In that case he had been pretending to pretend that he was "morose and lonely" as he put it. Or he was mocking himself in that scene, which also checks out. Either way he doesn't let on that he knows what the alien is until the very end, so it kind of implies that the whole thing is extremely calculated. But the listener is kept guessing, as are the team, about anything and everything that could be attributed to Ianto's personality.

It also gives a voice to the quiet ones. They didn't remember me, they don't listen to me, they didn't invite me, and I don't mind because didn't want to go anyway. If I had been offered I would've said no. But it still hurts. Well, that's just me. Its fine, it's fine, it's fine, I don't mind. Do you want anything? - And I think outside of the TV canon, writers often forget that about Ianto. Tosh is described as shy because of her tone of voice, but Ianto doesn't even allow himself to appear timid. Admittedly its probably hard to portray taciturn characters in media because you only see them when they talk, but I think viewers could take the initiative after he managed to hide Lisa in the archives for so long. James Goss is obviously able to express the complexity of Ianto's character artfully, and what brings it to life as always is GDL's performance. Bro is intensely reserved. More than any other character. He fears being perceived, as do many neurodivergents, and seeks to avoid socialising altogether because he is taken for granted to maintain a mask that is nothing other than useful, with a bit of his uniqueness bleeding through. Though voluntary, this can be very demanding. His true, withdrawn, meticulous, cynical, sarky, camp-y personality would be considered too weird. Because he's like this he gets fed up with how ridiculous the others can be in comparison. And so the cycle continues. His aura is too powerful 😔

Okay I never know how to end Tumblr posts.

"By and large, most buildings, they don't hate me. They're practically ambivalent towards me... Except the post office."

-The Office of Never Was

Ianto was so delightfully unhinged in this. Poor guy just wanted to go home and watch The Apprentice but instead he must face The Horrors.

I want to buy the torchwood audio dramas, the ones with the original cast? (I think they are bbc not big finish but could be wrong) but I don’t want to subscribe to audible.

is there a way I can buy them and own them? I prefer physical media but i know that’s not possible for audiobooks most of the time unless they are on CD which i’m pretty sure these aren’t (don’t own a CD player anyway) so if there’s any way I can own a download on my phone without going through a third party that’d be ideal, if not then where can I buy them that’s not audible ?

appreciate anyones help!

What do you mean Big Finish has been making Torchwood audios since 2015?!?!?!

[iantojonesirl]

[theyreallgaylol]

Okay does anyone know if there's like the scripts or sumn for the Torchwood audio dramas cuz like.. I CANNOT do audio books, I get distracted too easily and don't retain any information, so it'd be easier for me just to read them.
