Torchwood

[beccaelizabeth]

I relistened to a bunch of Torchwood audios today
to decide which ones to delete to make room for even more
because Big Finish make All The Things.

The Dollhouse, The Dying Room, Fortitude, and Save Our Souls
are all decent storytelling
but do not need to be on my phone.

I've listened to the chatty bits after the stories and they do emphasise that Queen Victoria is meant to be manipulative and quite a bit evil
and highlighting the colonialism bad actually aspects
but still
when you listen to them
she does end up winning a lot.

Old ladies being badass is a bit win except for the entire context and monarchy situation.

Still, Norton is Very a problem as well.

If Torchwood has a theme it involves watching the bad guys do bad things and win a lot.
And then calling it a win for the world, ish, because there are even worse things?

... tad bit dark, obvs.




I like Torchwood (the stories) but if I listen to it all in a row I dont like Torchwood (many of the people)
and then I end up feeling a bit odd about liking the stories
because what are the attractions here?



Probably I should listen to kinder things for a while.
