Save Our Souls was the fortieth story in the Torchwood audio series by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Scott Handcock and featured Rowena Cooper as Queen Victoria.
Publisher's summary
An experimental radio mast has been set up on a remote island. It has been picking up signals – a voice that claims it knows the future.
Five people have come to the island to hear the voice. A scientist, a soldier, a medium, an alienist and the most powerful woman in the world. The voice has something to say to all of them. It starts by saying who will be the first to die.
Plot
On Flat Holm, Florence Driscoll and Owain Pryce receive and translate a message in the voice of Queen Victoria, saying that "she is coming". The Queen arrives at the island with Captain Henry Morgan and Samuel Okonjo and is escorted to the lighthouse by Driscoll whilst Okonjo prepares for a séance at the hotel. The Queen, Driscoll and Pryce join Captain Morgan and Okonjo.
During the séance, Okonjo claims to be possessed by the ghost of a little girl called Tilly but is interrupted twice by the voice from the speaker, saying that Okonjo was a fraud, that Pryce had a woman fired for loving someone else, that Captain Morgan had his men fire on villagers for a medal, that Driscoll broke a window as a child and that the Queen has affections for a Scotsman. The voice also says that Okonjo will die in six minutes.
