For The Love Of StoriesBig Finish produce fantastic full-cast audio dramas for CD and download.

The latest series of the Torchwood monthly audio adventures opens with a very different sort of adventure, taking the form of a spoken-word relaxation tape. But the last thing it will provide is release from stress or anxiety, sorry.  

Torchwood: Tropical Beach Sounds and Other Relaxing Seascapes #4 is now available as a collector’s edition CD at £10.99 or download at £8.99 exclusively at the Big Finish website.  

You are listening to a self-help tape. You are hearing a soothing voice. You have always wanted to do something with your life, haven't you? Oh, how you've ached to be a better person.  

Well now. This is your chance. Go on. Sit back. Close your eyes. Relax. You're going to learn all about Captain Jack Harkness. You're going to learn all about Torchwood.  

You're going to change the world. 

 

Narrator, Sir Michael Palin said: “I enjoy doing radio and I enjoy doing recordings because you have to try to create a picture for people. And especially something like Torchwood: Tropical Beach Sounds and Other Relaxing Seascapes #4 as it's catchily called, because there's lots to it. It works on lots of different levels.  

“It's a very sustained piece. It's a long piece of narration to do. There are lots of different ideas and the pace changes abruptly, and very quickly, from larky- jokey, to very dark and rather violent. Anyone who likes reading stuff, you want to be given something that tests you a bit and this certainly tested me.” 

Writer, Tim Foley added: “It was pure joy to watch Sir Michael Palin sink his teeth into the script. He delighted in its weird comedy and revelled in its wonderful menace. I sat there in the studio mesmerised by his delivery. What a lovely voice! What a lovely man!” 

Please note that Torchwood contains adult material and may not be suitable for younger listeners.
