It’s the introduction to the Sapphire and Steel audios.
And such a good introduction it is. Two minutes in (after S&S have been introduced) and they haven’t told you anything about the characters, but in such a fantastic way as to make you think it’s brilliant. I was able to appreciate the Sapphire and Steel interactions a lot more this time as I understood what the hell was going on. As I was eagerly listening to it this time as opposed to be on a plane with nothing else to listen to. Thank you Comic Con once again for introducing me to the awesome.
I love the character of Burgess. He’s so tormented by what happened and unable to let go. *hugs him*
Also the introduction of Gold. He is lovely. Also Sapphire’s horror at running into him. She couldn’t believe that Steel asked him to come. It’s brilliant. Cause it’s done in that wonderfully prime and proper way of hers. Also the end where Gold takes care of Burgess and gets him home. Making sure he’s okay cause as much as I love Sapphire and Steel really don’t care about those things. But Gold put him through so much and for his own good and then he went and made sure he was okay. Gold does care about the stupid humans. /Gold!fangirling
And all the ghosts. Poor ghosties. Sapphire and Steel does ghosts so well. And I love how they just take it in stride that all these people are dead. Time is a right bastard.
Anyways, I love this one as it captures everything wonderful about Sapphire and Steel. After watching the show I love it even more, because I can see just how well it keeps to the show and makes it work wonderfully on audio.
I loves it. Loves it lots.
