I went into this story hoping for more. The idea of a Torchwood story featuring the Mara has a lot of promise. The characters are all very engaging, but I really wanted to see a bit more of the psychological horror elements on both of the main characters, rather than just one. It's great that we did get some of that with the constant teasing from the Mara, but I think it would have worked better if it was more two sided. Also, could have done with a story prior to this giving us a bit more context on this Torchwood team before one of them is removed. However, I still really enjoyed a lot of this story. While it wasn't entirely what I was looking for, there was still a lot of strengths in the writing performance of the characters.

Strong first outing for this duo I really hope we get more of them

big finish torchwood is at its best when it focuses on original characters, and this is a perfect example of why. the story of forster was so sad and heartbreaking, but the end really felt satisfying. i wouldn't necessarily say we need to hear from this torchwood team again but i would love it if we did! the dynamic between forster, dellafield, janks and the mara!dellafield were all really well written and acted. torchwood continues to be a gays only organisation as it should be !!!
