Meltdown is the finale of the second Stargate Big Finish season.
Meltdown would turned out to be the final Big Finish episode for Atlantis as the next and final season are all made up of SG-1 stories.
Meltdown would also become the final Stargate Big Finish to be in the enhanced audio readings format read by one of the two actors performing the episode in question.
For the next season the format is changed into the full-cast audio play format.
Meltdown stars David Nykl as Dr. Radek Zelenka and guest star Aiden J. David as Argan Loci.
Released in October 2009 and written by David A. McIntee.
Set during season 2 not long before Coup D'etat.
Due to an off-world mission going awry Zelenka found himself trapped in a Genii power station and does not have anyway to contact his Atlantis colleagues.
This therefore left with the only option of talking with the enemy a Genii by the name of Argan Loci.
Quite enthralling the situation that Zelenka has been forced to deal with due to his struggle to get Argan to trust him.
Quite gripping on hearing this played out leading to its resolution.
Very well done with the two actors involved in their performance, especially with what Nykl as Zelenka was given to do here more so than on TV, of this episode.
So I was very surprised on listening to the interview with David afterwards that he and Nykl had recorded this episode separately and each in different locations.
The magic of sound design.
The David interview becomes generally about him being a sci fi fan and he said that he did another sci fi for Big Finish before doing this that of Doctor Who: The Raincloud Man.
The conversion here becomes about sci fi on screen in general and says he would like to do screen sci fi.
Out of curiousity I went to look up his on-screen work but nothing sci fi was listed.
