The round of 32: matches 7&8
Looks like a win and a loss for Andy yesterday
First up today is a match between Ianto’s windy pier escapades in Missing Molly vs Ace and Colchester’s oil rig mishaps in Sabotage.
Next we’re separating the happy couple, as Gwen in More Than This faces Rhys in Visiting Hours.

The round of 32: matches 9&10
Apologies for the late post, but can you believe we’re over half way through this round already?
First up is Captain John vs the world, up against Owen vs Ianto. The Death of Captain Jack is going up against The Last Beacon.
Next up is a battle of the early stories, between two main cast members, a rare right for this tournament. Owen in The Hope is going up against Gwen (and Rhys I suppose) in Forgotten Lives.

The round of 32: matches 11&12
The Last Beacon looks to be safe so I can breathe a sigh of relief
First up today we have an early Suzie story with Moving Target up against a later Tosh story with End Game.
Next is Ianto in a plane vs Ianto in a social setting, as Fall to Earth is up against Rhys and Ianto’s Excellent Barbecue.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
These choices are getting so much harder, I gave 3/4 stories from todays matches a 5/5
Adore Fall to Earth—such a beautifully paced and structured story, but Barbecue breaks my heart.
No idea how End Game has survived this far! I love Tosh but she easily has some of the weaker audios IMO.
It’s been a while since I listened to Fall To Earth, but I seem to remember the end being a bit of a copout, whereas Rhys and Ianto’s Excellent Barbecue is, in fact, excellent
The round of 32: matches 13&14
Yeah yesterdays winner was Ianto probably, I don’t even need to check
First up today is a New Who TV monster up against a Torchwood TV monster. It’s Sync vs Madam I’m.
Next is another Ianto vs Ianto match. In The Great Sontaran War he has to deal with major Kreg, and in Disco he has to deal with his father.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
The round of 32: matches 15&16
And with this being the last day of the round of 32, I can confirm that Ianto will be taking up 6 of the final 16 spots, a couple lower than I was expecting to be honest
First up is Suckers, where the author, as usual, is making Tosh miserable. It’s up against Gooseberry, were Owen and Andy are having a greatish time becoming friends.
Next is another early vs late match, as Gwen and Rhys in We Always Get Out Alive face Norton in Everyone’s Dead on Floor Three.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
As per usual with this being the last day of the round of 32 there will be no polls tomorrow, to ensure that every poll gets 48 hours. The round of 16 will begin the day after tomorrow, and I’ll only doing one poll a day going forward. Mainly because I’m enjoying this and want to draw it out for as long as possible
Argh I’m a sucker for Suckers, stop making me vote against it!
I love Tosh and it was really fun hearing her so early in her Torchwood career! (I’ll always want to vote for a Tosh or Owen audio, as I enjoyed them all… but the competition is so tough!!)
Suckers vs Gooseberry is VERY hard… they’re both so good! Gooseberry is perhaps a shade tighter but it’s so close…
The round of 16: match 1
Well here we are, the final 16 stories. I’m not gonna lie a few of these surprised me, but my favourite story is still in and that’s all that matters.
Our match today features a story starring two of Torchwood most beloved characters, up against a story that doesn’t really feature anyone in particular, despite what the cover might lead you to believe. Dinner and a Show is up against Tropical Beach Sounds and Other Relaxing Seascapes #4.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
The round of 16: match 2
Yesterday’s match is a draw at the time of posting so it’s still all to play for
Our match today is Broken a tale of love and heartbreak between two of Torchwoods most beloved characters, up against Ghost Mission, a tale of Norton getting on Andy’s nerves.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
The round of 16: match 3
I cannot believe Tropical Beach Sounds is in the final 8, I’m disappointed in you all /j
Our match today is a double Owen match. In fact, both The Last Beacon and The Hope see Owen trudging unhappily through the countryside, it’s almost like the authors enjoy making him miserable and muddy.
Remember, each poll will be open for roughly 48 hours
Why would you do this to me, Turlough?
This is like Sophie’s choice! (Never seen it.)
Argfffffhhhh
Fine.
The Last Beacon.
But only because there are other Owen and Andy eps.
You’re a cruel, cruel man, Turlough.
The Last Beacon has Ianto in it 
Maybe I’ll be kinder in the next match coz you voted for the correct story this time 
Or maybe not, each match is pre-decided ages in advance and I don’t get to choose who faces who
Of course, of course. I get you.
Allow me to shake your hand and thank you for composing such a fair poll.
The round of 16: match 4
Glad to see most of you voting for The Last Beacon. Maybe I’m supposed to stay neutral since I’m hosting this thing but you can’t stop me
Our match today features Ianto having a terrible time yet again. This time he’s dealing with family issues in Disco while he faces Norton and the Soho lot dealing with Adam in Madam I’m.
Remember, each poll will last roughly 48 hours
