Ianto's Finishing Big, Too!

Following up and updating the latest Torchwood audio news:

It's now been confirmed that Gareth David-Lloyd will be returning to the role of Ianto Jones, for Big Finish's upcoming Torchwood revival. For somewhat obvious reasons, this massively hints that the series will indeed take place prior to the events of Children of Earth and Miracle Day.

Check out this fun snippet of Ianto, ready (as ever)!

Details have been released of the first two releases in the series:

The Conspiracy


Captain Jack Harkness has always had his suspicions about the Committee. And now Wilson is also talking about the Committee. Apparently the world really is under the control of alien lizards. That's what Wilson says. People have died, disasters have been staged, the suspicious have disappeared. It's outrageous.

Only Jack knows that Wilson is right. The Committee has arrived.

Written by: David Llwellyn
Directed by: Scott Handcock

Cast

John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness), John Sessions (Wilson), Sarah Ovens (Kate), Dan Bottomley (Sam)

This adventure was recorded 30th April 2015, and Big Finish's website indicates it went before the mics in both LA (where John now lives) and Big Finish's own hub, the Moat Studios.

Fall to Earth


The SkyPuncher is the first private spaceflight. But Ephraim Salt's visionary project has gone horribly wrong - the ship is falling out of the sky and there seems no way to stop it.

Ianto Jone thought the flight would be sabotaged. The only problem is... he's on board.

Written by: James Goss
Directed by: Scott Handcock

Cast

Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones), Zeynep (Lisa Zahra)
