Articles Where Are They Now - Frexit Wounds Cast? by DJ Forrest

"I've crossed my own timeline. I can't be allowed to meet myself. A lot of lives depend on this. You'll be protecting the future. That's what you're here for, isn't it? And now I need you to put me in the morgue. Freeze me. Set the alarm to defrost in a hundred and seven years time."

Fragments/Exit Wounds

In the first episode of the two parter, everyone in the team bar Gwen, were investigating an old disused mill on a derelict estate. They were expecting to find aliens. They were not expecting to find strategically placed detonators with only 3 seconds left on the clock. Lying in the wreckage of the building, each of the team lie trapped by fallen masonry, suffering levels of pain and discomfort. Owen is awake and concerned for the falling pane of glass with the potential to sever his head from his shoulders.

We are transported back to the early days of when each member of the team was introduced to Torchwood. Jack, naturally the longest serving member, takes us back to early Victorian times. Owen, upon discovering his wife who needs a tumour removed, has an alien feeding off her brain. Toshiko, who stole plans for a sonic modulator device, fixed the fault, in order to save her mother from the clutches of Milton and her team, became herself incarcerated in one of UNITs prisons with no release date. And Ianto, who instead pursued Jack, to be accepted as part of the team in Torchwood Three, if only for somewhere to store his Cyber girlfriend Lisa...

Towards the end of the episode and into the second, we discover who set off the explosive devices and why.

Captain John Hart has been 'captured' by a young but angry Gray, who wants to avenge brother Jack for all the lifetimes he has lost.

Further bombs are detonated across Cardiff after John who has entered the Hub unannounced, shoots Jack 'dead', then uses the rift manipulator, causing devastation throughout the city. Jack is pulled back through the Rift with John, to a time before the city was a City. Striding across the field to greet him, is his long lost brother, Gray.

Gray has plans to change the shape of Torchwood and sets about eliminating the team. Starting with Toshiko, while Owen is trapped at the nuclear power plant at Turnmill. Jack is buried in the vaults after being unearthed by the Victorian Torchwood, and distracts Gray from whatever action he was going to do next by punching the walls of his confinement. Shocked by his brother Jack's return to the present, Jack can only silence him by stifling him with the chloroform on the surprisingly clean hanky. An old Victorian trick, which puts him to sleep.

At the end, Gwen, Jack and Ianto stand emotionally facing the computer screen, where Toshiko has made a final goodbye speech.

John Hart, decides to stick around on Earth for a while longer, and leaves Jack and the team with their grief.

Amy Manson

'Alice Guppy'

'Hmm. The Doctor, he will be able to fix me. When the Doctor turns up, it'll all be put right. You wait till I see the Doctor. First, I'm going to kiss him, then I'm going to kill him. Transcripts of your conversations with strangers, in various drinking dens, since you first came to our attention.'

Alice was part of the Victorian Torchwood who first captured Jack after he came back to life outside an inn with a bottle protruding from his stomach. Part of the Hub team, Alice also aided Charles Gaskell in exhuming Jack's body from the Cardiff Park location after a signal was picked up from the ring, he had been given from Captain Hart.

If you get a chance to watch the film Not Another Happy Ending, do it. It's a Scottish film, with Karen Gillan as a writer who seeks publication, and Amy plays her character Darsie, who lives inside her head, but acts outside of it. You'll get what I mean when you see the film. It's brilliant. The film came out in 2013. The casting and scenery are awesome. We wrote a review of the film on our Beyond the Tardis Page.

Skipping ahead to 2015, Amy played Medea in Atlantis for 11 episodes. Played Merida in Once Upon a Time for 8 episodes between 2015-2016.

Torchwood Three. My gift to you, Jack, for a century of service as field operative. Give this place a purpose before it's too late. Please. (stares at the locket in his hand) I looked inside. It showed me what's coming. They were mercy killings. It was the kindest thing I could do, so none of us see the storm. I'm sorry I can't do the same for you. Twenty first century, Jack. Everything's gonna change. And we're not ready.'

Alex was the head of Torchwood Three, who after seeing the future when he opened an alien locket (explained in Big Finish Torchwood Archive), killed his team before turning the gun on himself. Jack became the new Head of Torchwood Three.

'Show me the piece. Oh, it’s beautiful. A perfect sonic modulator. Toshiko, you've done so well. Oh, except now you're the victim of your own success. Perfectly situated, proven ability. You can give us so much more. Then your mother stays with us. And your brilliance is used against her. Like this.'

When Toshiko presented the plans and the completed sonic modulator device to a woman known as Milton, she hoped that both she and her mother would be free of her clutches. But as Toshiko had fixed the faults with the device, she proved more of an asset to Milton, who was determined to keep hold of her a while longer. When Toshiko demanded the release of her mother, Milton triggered the sonic device, fully protected behind ear muffs, except for Toshiko and her mother. Before more harm could be caused, UNIT soldiers burst into the room and contained the situation and Milton and Toshiko were arrested.

'It's like being lost in a place you know really well; you can't get your bearings. Sometimes it comes back to you, and sometimes. I'm sorry, Owen.'

Katie was Owen's fiancée who suffered terribly with memory loss. It began as a possible Alzheimer’s case but after another MRI scan revealed it to be a tumour, an operation to remove it reveals an alien starfish living on her brain. It produces a toxic gas that kills every member of the operating staff in the hospital theatre, including Katie.

'I prayed for death. Those creatures, the things they did to us. Because of you. The favourite son, the one who lived, who will always live. The only strength I have is my hatred for you. I begrudge you everything. I want to rip it all from you. To leave you screaming in the dark. I will never absolve you. All of it, it's your fault.'

Gray was consumed by rage that Jack was the golden boy, having lived a better life than he. So consumed, he stabbed Jack after embracing him in the field after being transported back to pre-Cardiff.

Eventually Gray's vengeance was brought to an end, when Jack chloroformed him by use of that ever so clean hanky!!! It gets around, does that hanky, haha.
