Fans eager for the third season of “Torchwood” can hear three prequel episodes that will begin airing today on BBC4 Radio.
The three episodes, called ”Asylum,” Golden Age” and “The Dead Line,” will serve as a set-up to the events that will take place on “Children of Earth.” All three are considered “canon” within the universe of “Torchwood.”
The radio shows are written by Phil Ford, Anita Sullivan and James Goss and star series regulars John Barrowman, Eve Myles and Gareth David-Lloyd, the 45 minute plays will air at the standard Afternoon Play slot of 2.15 p.m. (UK time) today, Thursday and Friday.
After airing, the episodes will be made available via the BBC’s iPlayer for listeners to hear worldwide for the next seven days. After that, they will be made available on iTunes.
As of this report, the first episode is on-line and available for download.
Michel Daw says
The download is only available to listeners in the UK. You may have to find ‘other’ means of listening.
Merlin McCarley says
The official line is DL available for UK only, but here we are at day 2 and stateside DLs have not been blocked yet.
Mitch from Omaha says
What do you mean “canon”? There is no such thing as “canon” in the Doctor Who series.
ALibertarian says
I was able to D/L episode 1 and 2 but today I get the “Not Allowed” for all 3.
What’s the deal?
