Torchwood: The Lost Files 1: The Devil and Miss Carew

It's been nice seeing Rhys play a bigger and bigger part in things in these audios set between Series 2 and Children of Earth. In the show, he was kind of a background character until halfway through Series 2, at which point he started taking a more prominent role, and he's really come into his own in the audios. He's now calm(ish) and collected in a crisis, can handle himself in a situation, and even comes to Gwen's rescue at times, as seen here. It's great.

One thing I like about Torchwood is that, unlike Doctor Who, it doesn't always feel the need to explain itself. There's an entity of some sort, communicating to people through the shipping forcasts, and its nature, exactly what it wants, and what it is and whatnot are never clearly explained. It's just clear that what it's doing at right this moment is a danger to humanity so Torchwood is going to stop it. Good stuff.
