Torchwood heroes from across the ages

The regular Torchwood range may have come to an end, but its many beloved characters will continue defending planet Earth – and their adventures will come to a dramatic climax in the upcoming miniseries Torchwood: Legacy. 

Due to be released across two audio drama box sets in September and October 2027, Torchwood: Legacy comprises twelve half-hour episodes, which together tell an epic story spread across the eras of the Torchwood Institute’s history. 

The ensemble cast includes many names familiar to long-time listeners of the Torchwood range, including Gareth David-Lloyd as Ianto Jones, Sophie Aldred as Ace, Tom Price as Andy Davidson, Kai Owen as Rhys Williams, Tracy-Ann Oberman as Yvonne Hartman, Paul Clayton as Mr Colchester, Samuel Barnett as Norton Folgate, Samantha Béart as Orr, Alexandria Riley as Ng, Jonny Green as Tyler Steele, Louise Jameson as Roberta Craven, and Dan Starkey as Kreg. Jordan Renzo (star of Class) joins the cast as Mr Lonely. And, there are more familiar faces yet to be announced.  

Torchwood: Legacy Volumes 1 and 2 are now available to pre-order in a multibuy bundle for just £38 (as digital downloads to own), exclusively here. 

Each box set comprises six 30-minute episodes, listed below.

Producer James Goss said: “Legacy is a celebration of Torchwood’s twentieth anniversary and also ten years of Torchwood at Big Finish, so it’s celebrating both the show and also all the various Big Finish ranges. 

“It’s the kind of story we always wanted to tell – leaping about through time and answering several secrets at the heart of Torchwood. It brings back some very popular characters, and it’s 12 episodes of very good fun sci-fi. It’s also not exclusive – it’s designed so that, if this is the first time you meet these characters, you can go off and discover more about them rather than feeling baffled.” 

Big Finish listeners can purchase each volume of Torchwood: Legacy individually for £19.99 (download to own), exclusively from www.bigfinish.com. 

All the above prices (including pre-order and multibuy bundle discounts) are fixed for a limited time only and guaranteed no later than 30 November 2027.
