1. Lost Souls

Outside of the government, beyond the police and fighting for the future on behalf of the human race, the Torchwood team leaves Cardiff and heads for the Franco-Swiss border.

This is where former time-traveller Martha Jones is now working as a doctor at the world's biggest physics laboratory, CERN.

Deep in an underground tunnel, a giant particle accelerator is about to be activated for the first time. But something strange is happening.

Scientists are hearing voices and collapsing with a strange illness. Is something lurking in the tunnel? Do the dead ever really stay dead?
