Torchwood: The Five People You Kill in Middlesbrough
This audio is not at all subtle, but I found it cathartic.
There's a spaceship crash in Middlesbrough, and Yvonne Hartman, and Torchwood, have a Plan to sort everything out quickly and peacefully.
This audio is not about that plan.
This audio is about systematically eliminating people who responded to a national emergency by dithering, covering their past mistakes, making whole new ones while refusing to admit it, spending huge amounts of money on things that dont work, spreading misinformation, and getting themselves out of town in defiance of a national lockdown.
I like it rather a lot.
Dark but fun, like a particularly twisted cartoon.
Unless you start really thinking about it, then it's back to Torchwood being terrifying.
