waking dreams

OK. First proper, non-introductory, episode. As I posted earlier, this episode was a key episode for me to figure out what kind of Doctor this is. (It's written by Moffat too, which is always a plus)

And... oh, boy. Oh, wow. It delivers. In spades. And... um, yeah. Well..

Today, the 10th September 2008, saw the beginning of a much-hyped experiment at CERN using the newly-completed Large Hadron Collider or LHC. Fortunately for us, the doomsayers were proved wrong when the planet failed to implode the moment the machine was switched on.

(Score one for those of us who were smart enough to know that it wouldn't've happened anyway!)

Now. Throughout the day the BBC has broadcast a series of programmes on BBC Radio 4 centred around the LHC and what the CERN scientists plan to accomplish. This programme included a one-off, 45 minute special episode of the popular Doctor Who spinoff, Torchwood. This episode, "Lost Souls", was set some time after the end of the second season of Torchwood and guest-starred Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones.

The episode can be heard here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/bigbang/torchwood.shtml (EDIT: apparently it IS downloadable outside the UK. WOO!)

EDIT #2: Considering it broadcast less than twelve hours ago, there are icons from Lost Souls on LJ already. bassair's LJ has good ones.
