In light of the New Series Doctor Who stories beginning to be novelized, there's always the possibility that the spinoffs will as well! IIRC, some of the SJAs have already been put to pen (about a third of them, actually), so there's already some precedent!
So, I ask you, dear Torchwood forum, what stories do you think would most benefit from being fleshed out in prose, and who would you like reading the audiobooks? Setting aside Children of Earth and Miracle Day, which would probably be giant multipart works, like the Daleks' Master Plan novelization, we're obviously mainly looking at Series 1 & 2.
Of those... from Series 1:
Everything Changes, in first person, from Gwen's POV, read by either Myles herself, or Clare Corbett, who was lovely in First Born.
Countrycide I think could be particularly terrifying, and I have no idea who I'd have reading it.
And I'd want Indira Varma reading They Keep Killing Suzie.
from Series 2:
Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang read by James Marsters (he's got a surprisingly nice audioreader track record)
Dead Man Walking, read by Burn Gorman if they can get him for the required chunk of time.
Fragments, read by each relevant cast member in turn.
And, while we're dreaming, I want them to go back and do readings of the original novels that don't yet have readings, and to do audiobooks of the Titan storylines, since it's pretty obvious that those desperately wanted to be novels but had to settle for being comics instead.
