Details have been released of the next release in the Torchwood monthly range – with Tom Price gaining an unusual co-star.

In a Big Finish first, a lead role (pun intended) is taken by Phoebe, a real-life dog making her debut.

Andy Davidson has stumbled across the last proper pub on Cardiff Bay. Sticky carpets, cut-glass mirrors, eccentric regulars and absolutely no food. He gets chatting to the bar manager Nia, who has a strange tale to tell. A tale about bizarre experiments on the local dog population, about booze-hounds transplanted into real hounds.

And the weirdest thing is, Andy might be starting to believe her.

Tom Price said: “An adventure involving dogs! I mean what could possibly go wrong?

“This is the moment where the lines between me and Andy are finally, completely abolished and I’m just Andy running around with dogs (which is what I do in my spare time). Lauren and Stewart have done an amazing job on this script. It is funny, it is snappy, it’s interesting. I’ve really enjoyed it.”

Torchwood: Dog Hop, written by Lauren Mooney & Stewart Pringle, is now available to pre-order as a collector’s edition 1-disc CD (+ download for just £10.99) or as a digital download only (for just £8.99), exclusively from http://www.bigfinish.com.
