Torchwood Radio Play: Asylum

 LOVED IT!! Sweet story and the writer managed to make it work in 45 minutes. IMO would have played very well as an epi.

Nice bit of by-play between Jack and Ianto. Not Janto, just two people who know each other very well. Actually it sounded like fanfic: Jack acting up and Ianto being the weary voice of reason.

Gwen and Ianto double-teaming Jack  to get him to do what they wanted-- funny stuff. 

And Andy got to the the HERO!!! YEAH!!!

And yes, this is what I'm doing to relax. Now, off to clean the bathroom.

And Andy didn't get retconned! There is not enough squee in the world...

I just finished listening and I thought it was lovely and sweet. Loved Andy in it (yes and that Andy didn't get retconned).
Really enjoyed the Ianto/Jack by play, especially the childish Jack playing with the gun. I could see Ianto rolling his eyes. "Oops." Haha.
Yes what you say about the tag teaming, and Jack trying to assert his control.
Personally, I thought (and have always written) that Torchwood was in the Asylum business anyway, so nice that the BBC have caught up.
It was a bit like fanfic. And was also nearly soothingly sweet. Made me wonder if they felt the need to calm people with the new season apparently being a bit harrowing.
Yep, worth listening too as you drive somewhere or do the ironing.
