- The Prisoner (2009) 1 – Arrival
The Prisoner Returns!
This is probably the most divisive show that we’ve done for Inevitable. Our fans have given us various opinions, from bad to great to love to dishonor on the Prisoner’s family. And yet here we are, forging forth and doing it anyway. Because 1) we want to and 2) it’s best to make your own opinions. It’s Arrival, written by Bill Gallagher and released on November 15, 2009.

Honestly this title alone was confusing.
We record these podcast in the dead of night now actually. Like way late at night. Like 7 PM. I know, so late right. In the UK the sun is probably still up at that time, being all a million miles from the equator and all that, but down here thanks to the end of DST we’re solidly two hours into darkness at that point. Yeah sun goes down at 5. Well 5:30 now but you get the point. It’s Dead of Night, written by Jane Espensen and aired on July 22, 2011.

But first, the Torchwood team (i.e. Gwen and Jack) have to deal with some snakes (noun; a treacherous or deceitful person) on a plane.

Halloween can’t come soon enough.
So the children of earth are saved and the day is mine once more. We only had to sacrifice one kid rather than the 10% that the 456 requested, but the 456 are off gallivanting somewhere else. They have technology to do almost anything but replicate this weird chemical? I dunno. It’s Children of Earth: Day Five, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on July 10, 2009.

If we could have made this episode a tone poem we would have.
The audio quality in this episode is a little worse than normal because it was recorded quite early in quarantine (nearly a year before release) before we had figured out how to properly record these things via skype. Because of that Kiyan’s audio sounds a bit scratchy. Sorry about that. It’s unfortunate we couldn’t make it a visual poem, since maybe the visuals could distract you from the audio. Alas. What a kind of shit way to end the season of Triple Play. It’s Koyaanisqatsi, Powaqqatsi and Naqoyqatsi.

Really riding this bean trend a little late.
Are we all ready to hear the story about the beans? You know the beans that I bought the other day? Well I bought some beans, and I took them home. And then I put them in my pantry. And that’s it. That’s the whole story. It’s better than getting invaded by aliens anyway. Speaking of which, it’s Children of Earth: Day Three, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on July 8, 2009.
