Ianto Jones tracks a mysterious mathematical message in a brand-new Torchwood full-cast audio adventure, released today from Big Finish Productions – and Alasdair Stuart gives it a glowing review:

Yet again, Gareth David-Lloyd turns in great work here and Ianto has rarely been more pressed than he is in this story.

Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto) and David Shaw-Parker (Greg) star in the haunting tale, written by Stewart Pringle and Lauren Mooney, inspired by a real-world phenomenon!

The Lincolnshire Poacher explores numbers stations – shortwave radio broadcasts transmitting melodies and numerical sequences rumoured to be covert communication…

Gareth David-Lloyd said: “Ianto thinks he’s getting funny phone calls but then later discovers it’s much more menacing than that. I knew absolutely nothing about numbers stations before doing this episode and I’m surprised to learn they’re real – although it’s a lot more sinister and sci-fi in our version.”

Mysterious signals lead Torchwood to the Moil. 4-1-8-4. Greg likes countryside walks and recording the songs of birds. 3-6-2-7. No one knows the secret of the numbers stations. 1-2-0-5. How long has Ianto Jones been trapped in the boiler room? 9-7-2-3. Reality is collapsing. 3-5-8-1. The Lincolnshire Poacher is waiting. 

Torchwood: The Lincolnshire Poacher is now available to order for just £10.99 (collector’s edition single-disc CD + download) or £8.99 (digital download only) from http://www.bigfinish.com.
