It's Christmas themed but blurs into New Year a bit so I timed listening to it just right.
Ace and Mr Colchester tell each other ghost stories by firelight.
By Joseph Lidster, and you can tell.

As well as his usual thematic preoccupations, Ace mentions her brother is spending Christmas with her because his husband left him, which may be the first time Ace's brother has been mentioned since The Rapture, also by Lidster. ... he got a lot better since then.

I don't want to say much about the plot(s) because this is an excellent piece, tense and personal.
It fits well with what we know of them already but isn't predictable. It expands on Torchwood, the Institute, and what they have been like. And then it ends on an excellent note.

I give it 5/5 stars.
