Torchwood Radio Plays did it gave me a closure ??

First thing i have to say about them that this radio plays are better then COE or the new Torchwood Miracle Day ( though i refuse to acknowledge it as Torchwood)  i watch the first episode of Miracle Day & that is everything which is not Torchwood.. just few scenes of Wales & Jack & Gwen doesn't make it Torchwood. anyway we are talking about Torchwood Radio plays which are  i consider the real Torchwood . The first of Three plays  " Devil & Miss Carew" i liked it it gave the old Torchwood feeling Alien hunting Cardiff based Torchwood three with its flamboyant Captain & Devilishly witty Tea boy & Gwen Cooper & her Husband Rhys the banter between Ianto & Jack brought the smile on my face after long time Torchwood made me happy first time when listen to Gareth's voice as Ianto tears of joy came into my eyes although the ending was bland of the play but that was forgivable & it had me looking forward to the next play " Submission".

The second play of the three plays "SUBMISSION"  after long time i really enjoyed Torchwood very much the play was very good we learned about the characters & we got to meet Ianto Jones old friend & flame from TW1 Carlie Roberts loved that character. & i so much agree with Carlie " you are hard man to let go Ianto Jones" the confession of Ianto's regarding his love for Jack was heart warming & every credit goes to Gareth David Lloyd because of his ability of acting & his ability to act through his voice he poured every emotion through his voice & frankly with his voice only he can plan world domination.. over all it was good play if i let go Gwen Cooper's one dialog nobody dies in Torchwood 3 Hello!!! Owen, Tosh, Suzie, Ianto, whole team on 2000 except Gwen Cooper everybody dies.. but i enjoyed the play. now we come to the last radio play . BTW as per promotion all radio plays were suppose to be pre -COE , but it didn't happen that way at the end.

The last radio play " House of the Dead" written by James Goss was not Pre but post COE.. & what i feel about this radio play i am frankly still confused , i loved it no doubt about it , i cried a lot while listening to it & after that also. this play was suppose to fix something which went very wrong during series three "Children of the Earth" the relationship between Captain Jack Harkness & Ianto Jones which is one of the most important aspect of Torchwood went horribly wrong during COE Jack was a total ass towards Ianto & this play tried to fix that part & it did  have success  to do that , but this was suppose to give fans bit of closure on this relationship & long standing campaign to bring back our beloved tea boy Ianto Jones  what happen here is it left me sad after listening to this play & left me wanting more Ianto.. as i said before Gareth did a fantastic mind blowing job in this plays but in this play  he outdone himself he was just too good to be true.. & that left me kind of astonishing feeling how can a creator who wants to make a successful show can let go actor like this & so popular character like this & bring on some actors & characters who are so bad actors & bland characters that could not even excited viewers  to smile or laugh or cry once in whole 50 minutes.

 I have confusing feelings about the last radio play i am happy about the play that at least BBc did make an effort to right the some wrong part of COE not everything which was wrong & & tried to give fans a closure .. but it left me feeling sad once more & wanting more Ianto .. & i believe its because of Amazing Mr. Lloyd & his acting & portrayal of Ianto also Ianto as whole character so beautiful we can't help but want him more.. but now what i am looking forward to is more Amazing characters like Ianto from Gareth David Lloyd.. if Ianto comes back i am happy if doesn't i have learn to live with that & with that end of Torchwood..
