Doctor Who: 5 Big Finish Crossovers We Need To Hear Now
4. Torchwood And Pete's World
During the epic ‘Army of Ghosts’ and ‘Doomsday’ two-parter, references were made to a version of Torchwood in the parallel universe native to the not-dead Pete Tyler and his buddy Jake. Rose, having been trapped there, even says she’s working for them. So a one-off Torchwood special that explores its parallel counterpart seems like a natural move.
With Camille Coduri set to reprise her role as Jackie Tyler next year, and ‘Journey’s End’ showing us a Jackie who’s no stranger to Torchwood tech, so she’s got to be involved. Shaun Dingwall and Andrew Hayden-Smith (another Big Finish alum) might be persuaded to reprise their roles as Pete Tyler and Jake Simmonds respectively from the parallel world to lead a new alt-Torchwood team. As a name for the story, we suggest “Ow, hot cord!”
Like the last suggestion, it may not be able to carry a full series, but it’d certainly be a fun one-off to explore the parallel universe. Better still, if Noel Clarke and Billie Piper can find time off from being big-shot Hollywood and television stars, a Tyler family reunion could be on the cards. In Torchwood, of all places!
