Dinner for Yvonne (audio story)
Dinner for Yvonne was the first audio story in I Hate Mondays.
Publisher's summary
A cloud of psychic plasma is sweeping over Salisbury Plain towards London. Unfortunately, it's Yvonne's night off and she's throwing a dinner party. Will London perish before she can serve the artisanal cheese board?
Plot
On Yvonne's night off, Ianto arrives at her house as she prepares for a dinner party with her Monday Supper Club and informs her that the Xylophron plasma that Torchwood One sent to Porton Down to be locked away has escaped. However, she is determined to go ahead with her dinner on account of her having missed her last three turns because of her job and demands that he leave, only to be forced to hide him in the kitchen when Ken and Diane arrive. Gerry and Kiki soon follow and Yvonne ushers them in before Tommy can reach the house, but he instead climbs in through the kitchen window. The army intend on bombarding the Xylophron plasma and inadvertently making it stronger, so Yvonne gives Tommy permission to set up an operation room in her kitchen and send everyone available to deal with it.
