Torchwood: The Death of Captain Jack

Captain John Hart (played by James Marsters), a wild ex-time agent who lives by his own rules, lives to tell the tale on the final moments of Captain Jack Harkness (played by John Barrowman) in the first of the Torchwood audio drama CDs rolling out for the year 2018 and expect madness in store for this latest mission full of dark humor.

Torchwood: The Death of Captain Jack

Written by David Llewellyn and directed by Scott Handcock, this latest Torchwood mission not only brings back the ones mentioned about but also familiar faces such as Eve Myles as Gwen Cooper, Gareth David-Lloyd as Ianto Jones, Kai Owen as Rhys Williams, and Tom Price as Sgt. Andy Davidson, among many others. In this mission, the death kneel of Captain Jack is nigh and in his deathbed comes a wild ex-time agent to tell the tale about something he should have had.

This is all about the madness Captain John Hart unleashed throughout the pages of history and and in typical Torchwood fashion, you can really feel the madness plunging through the atmosphere as you follow along with this deranged by unique storytelling only Captain John could ever imagined and while this is downright crazy and downright vile, it fits right perfectly to one of our favorite villains ever mentioned from the Torchwood archives.

Fans of the Doctor Who spinoff series are very pleased about the return of Captain John Hart ever since his madness spills from the first and the last episode of the second series and with this audio drama, his madness forever plagues through the hearts of many because fans surely missed that wild attitude of his. This is a must-listen for every Torchwood fan, even if they are on a mood to listen to some of the forgotten archives from the history of Torchwood and looks like we have to give the hardworking folks from Big Finish a paralyzing kiss. Literally. Like Captain John does.
