Sleeper

Posted on June 16, 2020 by

I’m tired of the up and down quality of Torchwood.  We had a really action-packed episode just one story back, packed with silly mistakes, but then episode two comes in with a slower character piece that is intensely good.  It’s … Continue reading →

Posted on June 11, 2020 by

For those who have been following my ramblings about Jago and Litefoot, a series that has a distinct feel of the Great Detective, I feel the urge to go full on Sherlock.  “…if it should ever strike you that I … Continue reading →

The Man at the End of the Garden

Posted on June 4, 2020 by

“Who is the girl at the top of the stairs?”  Sometimes a line or a moment in an audio story can really send shivers down your spine.  I found that in a few instances here, but this was possibly the … Continue reading →

End of Days

Posted on June 2, 2020 by

Lately, that title seems more accurate than normal but for Team Torchwood, it really does seem to be the end of days.  After the events of Captain Jack Harkness, Owen’s use of the rift alerted something that has been “moving … Continue reading →

Dead Men’s Tales

Posted on May 28, 2020 by

The first thing that caught my attention with the beginning of season 3 of Jago and Litefoot was that the title of this first adventure was very … seafaring.  Now I should point out that as a fan of Cthulhu … Continue reading →
