Golden age is tomorrow and The Dead line is on Friday.
I thought Asylum was a great story. Everyone did a great job with the limited resources of audio, particularly the girl Erin Richards as Freda, according to Torchwood mag this was her debut and she did really well.

I thought Asylum was good for a radio play. Would be a terrible TV episode, but worth the 45 minutes listening.

Can't wait for the next two though. They sould much better.

Oh be quiet, Mr. Pedantic

Golden Age was much better, IMO. It involved more threat. The first one was more character-driven, which I personally don't like. They're okay, but not my favourite. This was more sci-fi, with

people disappearing and the team in trouble

.

Tomorrow's, I think, is going to be the best of the three. Reading the preview, it sounds similar to

The Ring movie, only with a phone call instead of a tape

. Very cool :cool:

any chance you could post the download link tomororw when it goes up?

No bother. Here's Golden Age, if anyone's interested.

I liked Asylum best of the 3, although I enjoyed them all. It's really got me in the mood for the series starting on Monday. Though I was disappointed that there didn't seem to be any foreshadowing of the upcoming story.
