"The Face of Boe, they called me."
And with that single line, a million minds were blown in an instant.
Martha's face was priceless
No shit
My brain: *explosion*
Yep, but it explains alot. Like the story's of face of boe story's of what he'd do when he dies. Tell his secrets to one like him and how he knew the master would be back.as he was their saw it with his eyes.and knew how to hide and tell him who all at once. You are not alone. dr: Yana.
@@BWBDCan I am so glad someone else spotted that!
Just wondering though, how does the whole boekind thing fit in? Wiki has info about Boe which I have never seen in Doctor Who or Torchwood.. maybe I missed something 🤷♀️
So if Jack is the Face of Boe, and the Face of Boe sponsored the End of the World viewing party, Jack set up the Doctor and Rose's first date.... awww he set up his ship.
And this is something I had never considered until now. Thank-you for the laugh I got out of that!
***** No that was because he knew Ianto had just died. The end of the Tenth Doctor correlates with Torchwood series 3, The Doctor knew Jack was heartbroken over this loss and helped him move on.
And set himself up with Alonso.
Mrdalek21: allons-y Alonso! (Sorry I just had to 😂)
Goddammnit.
I love how the doctor had the same reaction as everyone watching that scene.
And Martha XD
lskulski that's because David and Freema weren't told about the plot twist. It was only when Jack told them when the found out.
suliman0786: Sorry, but 100% absolutely incorrect. There's an entire scene in Doctor Who Confidential where they discuss, in detail, their reactions to reading the reveal in the script for the first time. David read the script way before John and kept excitedly asking him if he had read it yet. I have no idea where these stories come from, hah.
It would be cool if they did not know
@@isabelgee5062 well they do know and people who keep lying and saying "Oh My GoD tHe ReAcTiOn WaS ReAl" are actually cancer.
I just love that the Doctor and Martha don't even try to conceal their surprise when he says "the Face of Boe, they called me". They don't even wait for him to leave.
Lol I think nearly nobody could have hid that surprise...Martha's expression was exactly mine when he said that 😱😱😂😂
@@prestongarvey6928how do you figure that? Genuinely curious as I just watched that episode again and I can’t seem to place it.
its becaus its unscripted and the camera man nodded his head yess before the reposition and shoot the whole reaction, if you look close to the pillar you can see the camerans white shoe tip just in frame
@dragonforce2724 Yes yes, absolutely everything good in a show or film was "improvised"
@@dragonforce2724i can guarantee they knew it was coming
Quite extraordinary how the first and last time Jack and the Doctor meet are five billion years apart from Jack's point of view, but all within two years from the Doctor's...
Correction, the last time we’ve seen them meet.
Jack's now met 13
@@Thestarsandseassystem what do you consider the first and the last time? When they appear on screen or in their timeline?
Time is meaningless in this context. But we are too, so all cancel out in the end and you get a truly extraordinary event with meaningful reflection on their respective lives. Jack looked the younger doctor and the Doctor, the younger Face of Boe.
@@Thestarsandseassystem so long as Jack doesn't encounter the Doctor dying permanently no regenerations ever happening again (killed while regenerating or outright hits his true limit assuming there is one even for the timeless child) their first and last interactions will be 2 years apart in the doctors time stream and billions in Jack's from Jack's pov and all the interactions jank has with layer versions of the Doctor go in the middle of their shared history. And since the Doctor encountered Jack's final moments while there will be much history to write with Jack in the middle the start and end are set in those first 2 years they knew Jack.
Captain Jack is the Face of Boe,
Captain Jack cannot die,
Captain Jack was once a time agent,
Captain Jack wears a vortex manipulator,
Dorium Maldovar sold River a vortex manipulator "fresh off the wrist of a handsome time agent."
The Headless monks are old customers of Dorium Maldovar and he works with them occasionally,
The headless monks decapitate people,
The face of boe has no body.
That's how he's the face of boe
If he's immortal then how did he die in Gridlock
GASP
Mind blown
@@DWargs I personally prefer the theory that Jack could only die once he passed the furthest point that Rose ever went into the future - which was the destruction of Earth.
also if u watch gridlock theres a part where the cat guy says someone once inhaled the fumes and her head grew to like, more than a handful of feet, which leads me to believe jack inhaled enough once for his head to grow to just where it was when he became boe.
I have no idea how and why, but I am sure about 1 thing. This is the most mindblowing plot twist in history of time and space and the whole multiverse-thingy...
Could not have said it better myself
Wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey, spacey-wacey.
He gets beheaded by the monoks leaving him as a aging head
Got u to 1K likes for a superb comment
RIver being Amy and Rory's daughter ranks up there too though.
I loved how Martha IMMEDIATELY made the connection. Her emotion change is PRICELESS.
Becaus it was her real reaction and not acted this was snuck in by the directors and only jack new thats why the doctor says no and laughs
@@dragonforce2724that's cool if it's true
I love it when a side character gets the respect that he deserves, and not get killed every time
Despite the show(s) attempts but said side character unlocks the immortal perk
Well, he kinda is killed every time, he just comes back every time too
Techinically he dies in Gridlock so..
@@Thegrimreaper4lyfe Right .... but they can still re-use the actor as he ages due to "He looks older but doesn't die".
I still remember the first time I saw this scene. How my jaw hit the floor. Precious memories :)
I know right!! I show my bro like,"DUDE!!! CAPTAIN JACK IS THE FACE OF BOE!!!" We freaked
I just love The Doctor and Martha's facial expressions.
Personally my first time watching this was before I'd seen any episodes with the face of boe, so it didn't really mean much to me at the time.
omg me too.like about to explode omg
1:04
John said when they were watching the episode when it aired, he went and opened the window. He was asked what he was doing, and he said waiting to hear the sound of everyone’s jaw dropping lol.
This is one of my favorite moments in the modern series. :)
True: One of its few redeeming moments in its worst era.
Yup I have to agree! It's so god damn heart warming :)
Agreed :D
Ian Warner Worst era? I haven't seen much of old Doctor Who but i did watch the first seasons. They might just have suffered from the spinning weels of time but this does not redeem them for me. To claim any season is worse than the original one, is straight out delusional.
ingenjannik
Even at its worst it was better than the worst Doctor David Tennant, and it pains me to say that. He was a proper fan of the show and had such promise but instead he gave us 5 more years of his predecessor as worst Doctor Peter Davidson only Peter Davidson redeemed himself with the actual death of a companion and a regeneration that he didn't know if it would actually work.
I like how the Doctor's reaction here is exactly the same as all the fans watching.
That was actually David Tennant's genuine reaction. They deliberately kept that scene out of the script until the very last minute, so it was a surprise to the actors as well.
Akaihiryuu77 except John Barrowman... he had to do the scene!
Akaihiryuu77 not true, they got the scripts a few days before shooting and tennant actually read the script before barrowman, but of course they did both react like the doctor :)
@StormsparkPegasus there's an entire Confidential episode about them reading it in the script beforehand, you liar
And with this knowledge we know that are beloved Captain Jack will get his wish to die and he will die aiding his friend and saving lives. He will live a long, eventful, and meaningful life and he will die the way we met him, with the Doctor. *raises glass* To Captain Jack, The Face of Boe, the man who was always there even if we didn't know it.
+Amanda Johnson I agree. A fitting moment for all of who are fans of the Captain. Just think......over billions of years he grows in wisdom and light until he is, truly, The Face of Boe. The enlightened being who comes full circle to his friend, the Doctor. As it began, so shall it finish, at the right time, in the right place, with ones he loves. And he truly does go gentle into that good night.
+K Turney Just had a thought: several people mention the "last of his kind" line. After billions of years of existence, legend would grow around the Face of Boe, obscuring his actual past. An old adage, and I'm paraphrasing, is that when the legend is bigger than the truth, print the legend. Thus, as legend swirls around, the universe forgets that The Face of Boe was once Captain Jack Harkness. But not us.
Nice.
YEEE
To captain jack, the face of boe, the man who isn't there at all and never has been because doctor who is a work of fiction.
This twist messed me up. We haven't had one like that in a while.
Let's face it, we all knew she was the Master.
I'm upset that you missed the opportunity to say "Jacked me up" instead.
Jayson Boren *facepalms* really? oi...
Well, there was that Melody Pond thing... I mean that she was River that wasn't that surprising (a bit mind blowing though) but that she was "the Girls who killed the Doctor" and Mel was kind of amazing
***** I really didn't. I read somewhere that Moffat said he didn't really like the Master as a character, so that was the one possibility I never strongly considered before the big reveal.
DoctorXCraft Not as good of a twist. This one was amazing, spanning 5 billion years. Then again, I am biased, I hated the whole River story. Also not a fan of the new writer, so is also that for me. The first four series were extraordinary. The first episodes of season 5 were okay, but towards the end It was just disappointing for me. I stopped watching after that. But i keep coming back to the first 4 series, those are addictive.
Cassandra: I’m the only pure human alive
Rose and Captain Jack aboard the same ship: *Bonjour*
The Doctor says 'I really don't know' but finds out about 30 seconds later.
The first thing that popped into my mind during this scene was OMG ROSE SHOULD KNOW THIS SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ROSE
hondjes789 she might slighlt know sense she knows that he survived getting blasted by a dalek
Could be, but I don't think she associated that with the Face of Boe Jekyll /Hyde
hondjes789 I like to think that 10's clone told her after the end of season 4
+hondjes789 well rose met the face of boe in Episode 2 when they go to the end of the world 5 million years in the future
+devon jessome 5 billion actually. ^^
That scene was honestly one of the BEST Doctor Who plot twists EVER! lol
Second best is the Melody Pond reveal.
@@LANDBACKbyANYmeans Third imo is the heaven sent "prison" being a timeloop
This is one of my all time favourite Doctor Who revelations. It just shows you plot twists don't have to alter a character's entire being or be some huge massive life changing secret that changes good to evil...They can just be small things like this that just make you laugh!
I have seen hundreds of TV series and thousands of plot twists... But nothing gives me more goosebumps than this one ...
And on that day The Doctor will walk up to the Face of Boe shake his fist and cry "BARROWMAAAAAAAAAAN!"
OH MY GOD I LAUGHED SO HARD
Barrowman is the actor, Captain Jack Harkness is his character.
Mightymite Oh for crying out loud do so completely shut up.
+Jayfive276 Just saying.
Mightymite Don't. Don't "just say". Try not saying instead.
You know what would be great? Is a future incarnation of the doctor visiting him. Tease the scene by hearing the Tardis coming in. You hear the new doctor saying"hello Jack" and boe smiles.
phantasmo9998 yesssssssss
Things that aged well.
@@MondySpartan I'm extremely nervous of the spoilers that I may receive as I am In season 10 but please
@@kiragolden5555 Just a heads up, Series 11 onwards is a reboot sort of
One of the BEST EVER twists of Doctor Who! Also...love how this was so cleverly foreshadowed with the music...the music playing here now played in that first scene when the Doctor saw the Face of Boe and stayed with him as he died.
Honestly, as much as I love the Face of Boe revelation, my favorite part of this scene has to be when the Doctor disables Jack's Vortex Manipulator. "I can't have you walking around with a time-travelling teleport. You could go anywhere, twice! The second time to apologize." That is just hilarious!
I really, really want to see Captain Jack flirting with the 12th Doctor
flirting?
Same jack and the 10 and 11 are hot lol
But with the just the 10 and 11 tho
Inpolite ROBLOX like i always say fans boys fan girls are from gallifrey and fan boys are from skaro
+Elijah blechman I like daleks lol
The amount of times I've re watched this show over the years and I'm only just now noticing Murray Gold plays the Face of Boe's song from Gridlock the whole time Jack is talking 😱😱👌
Remember when the Dr and the cat nurses were so puzzled to how the Face of Boe could live that long. Never had it occurred to me they’d even have followed up on Captain Jack being resurrected and to think of that earlier or even remember it to make good writing. That’s how you create not only a good story but a fantastic universe for fans to invest into
I love how the Face of Boe's theme is playing in he background.
Captain Jack : Can’t die*
Face of Boe : Dies*
Captain Jack : « Face of Boe they called me »
But Jack dies all the time, he just comes back to life.
So, what happened to the Face of Boe afterwards?
Reading other people's comments, it seems the main theory is that Jack wasn't actually immortal, he could just live for billions of years
It's possible his physical form is just inactive
Captain Jack can't be killed, but he ages, so there is a point where his body is too weak to keep regenerating. When he died as The Face of Boe, he was millions of years old. It's logical that his "power" was dissapearing.
@@HannibalKantter Hence why he asked "what happens if I live for a million years?" and the answer was "I don't know."
I knew that Captain Jack would regain his immortality at the end of Miracle Day! If he hadn't he'd never become the Face of Boe. But how he ends up as a giant, scaly, alien head in a jar is a great mystery.
Well we already knew he regain his immortality since Rex didnt die from the shot he took ^^
And this only because of Jack's blood
But how come Rex's own blood didn't mix with Jacks?
SP Murphy I don't remember exactly this episode, but i think only Jack gave his blood to Rex but he didn't took Rex's one. I may be wrong tho ^^
The answer is so simple:
He was decapitated and became a HEADLESS MONK! his head was preserved in a JAR!
Lou_Dude929 yes but how did it get so flippin big
I always love that subtle look Jack gives them when they react to the Face of Boe thing. He's definitely like 'yea they know what I become..'
"Impossible Thing".... and the "Impossible Girl"? :P
nonetheless, I still got a chill when Jack said "... face of boe they called me"
Ten and Martha's faces are timelessly priceless. 😂 I love this scene so much.
I love that this scene gives a last touch to Boe saying "you're not alone" cuz everything that happens here was long in the past from BoE time line but he knew it was the future of the Doctor
That was one hell of a plot twist. I reacted like Martha and the Doctor.
There is one thing that confuses me though. In TORCHWOOD, episode 1, Jack says "I won't get pregnant. Never doing that again." How the HELL did he even know he was pregnant? I mean, that was when he already *was* the Face of Boe, as in enourmous head in a jar.
I think that time it was an off the cuff joke, you've seen what the characters like
Andrew Thorne you're probably right. Still threw me, though. But it'd be typical Jack. ^^
I think he was pregnant in the time loop with John..? He lost the child. 51st Century hormones for the win ;)
***** I am, yes. But men cannot get pregnant at all. I thought Jack only could in his Face of Boe persona (don't ask me how, I've got no idea), although in hindsight, Jack *is* from the 51st century, so maybe men can get pregnant by that time. Actually seems quite plausible, considering Nine's conversation with Rose about 51st century humans in The Empty Child
***** yeah, I know. ^^
Martha looking fine af
She is incredibly good looking 🔥
fuck you doing here mate? nice seeing a familiar face
It's just a shame she is such a bad actress
DJ B true, only moment she was great was when the Hath named Peck died in the mud, her crying touched my soul and i can still hear it in my dreams. It was almost good enough for an oscar and easily some of the best acting in the whole series.
No treeswinger looks fine
the doctors face after realizing ... EEPIC!!
+FINDY EM
No.
+FINDY EM
Yes.
From what i understand it was genuine. They supposedly kept that line of the scrip away from everyone except Barowman.
To be fair, The Face of Boe is pretty famous and Jack has traveled a bit in time and space. There is the SLIGHT chance that Jack is familiar with The Face and spun that little story to mess with the Doctor since the Face of Boe is so ancient it makes the doctor seem like a child.
That would be an even bigger twist, noice
This has gonna be the biggest twist in all of TV history. Even a lord of time didn't see this coming!
The first time that I went to Cardiff Bay, I realised that I was stood where this scene takes place on the way back. I was unreasonably excited.
"I was the first one ever to join the time agency..."
"Pretty nice Jack."
"Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister they called me."
💯
"Yes, we know who you were."
So I really didn't catch it the first time around watching, but in The Pandorica Opens when River meets with Dorium Maldovar in a nightclub he says this -
DORIUM: A vortex manipulator, fresh off the wrist of a handsome Time Agent.
(He opens the box and sighs.)
DORIUM: I said off the wrist.
I think I just figured out how Jack became the Face of Boe. Considering he is the Time Agent that Dorium is talking about, and it looks like he has been disembodied, It's safe to assume his head has been chopped off, seeing that the Headless Monks knew how to preserve the head without the body and how Dorium's head also survives in its flesh state, it's completely possible that Jack's face/head was also preserved which just grew up to become The Face of Boe.
I feel like they're leaving clues in throwaway sentences for us to connect the Jack and Boe storyline.
The_Howler I think you're right, I read in an Ask Moffat column in the Doctor Who Magazine recently that the original plan for `A Good Man Goes to War` was that Jack HArkness would join in and the headless monks would behead him, which led into him becoming the Face of Boe, Moffat said the only reason they couldn't do this was because John Barrowman (his actor) wasn't available.
MrSinxist Then that solves it. We know how he becomes The Face of Boe, we also know when by the looks of it. I just want to see 13 interact with Harkness now, I think that dynamic would be great.
JACK IS NOT THE FACE OF BOE!!!!! BOE IS PART OF AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT RACE. THERE IS NO WAY JACK COULD BECOME BOE AS THEY ARE TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE. JACK IS STILL ALIVE WITH A BODY AND EITHER NO ARM OR A FRESHLY GROWN ONE.
Scott Dain Perhaps Boe started his own race after the wisdom he gained once he was only a head. Perhaps he wanted to pass on that wisdom to someone who isn't constantly interrupted by their dick. Also, I think your caps lock is broken.
The_Howler
The whole hypothesis of Jack being Boe is idiotic and makes no sense. Anyway the producers of Doctor Who have forgotten all the unexplained storylines (Boe and Jack, the Doctors Daughter etc).
My mind exploded when I found out about this...yesterday. I'm new to Doctor Who. I'm only on season 4.
I can think of six impossible things before breakfast and one of them is Captain Jack Harkness
Their expression at 1:04 is priceless.
Captain Jack got a little mention in series 9, So I hope he's returning. I also saw somewhere that he may be back in series 10 or the Christmas special this year. I sure do hope so.
Solitary Wanderer (SW) I want him back.
Solitary Wanderer (SW) when was he mentioned I don't remember.
pretty sure it was when they was talking to (me) about immortals and the doctor mentioned he knew jack who was immortal
not gonna lie that is and will always be my favorite reveal moment, because I didn´t even consider it. I was always happy to see Jack. And devastated every time I thought he died or was left behind and then this scene came and I was like -- yeah literally I was David in that moment. And now with the twelveth season.... you can´t imagine how happy i was to see him again
BUT... HOW... DID... HIS... HEAD... GET SO HUGE?!!!!!!
+Cam TheMan Magic
+Cam TheMan Wibbly wobbly timey wimey... stuff.
+Cam TheMan
He got beheaded by the Headless Monks, then since he doesn't die I assume he grew. Not entirely sure.
+SuitedBrony swollen by the water? I guess
Oppressed Youths
Maybe... the only way to get a real answer is if Moffat ever decides to make an episode about it later.
If Torchwood comes back for a final season, it has to show Jack's transformation into the Face of Boe!!!
it doesn't happen at one single moment. He just continue to become older and older, until he looks like face of Boe
Nicolas Coenen I know but it'll be class!!! btw they have to bring the Doctor in it as well! He's been in Sarah Jane Adventures and Class (geddit?!) but he's yet to make an appearance in Torchwood!
Trey Myles I think his transformation into the face of boe would be better and make more sense if it was incredibly gradual. Just like normal evolution
Dalek Jast that would've been cool and make sense seeing as we don't know why he's just a face
Trey Myles Yes I would love to See. That
It's been years and I still think about this scene all the time, at least once a month. It was truly one of the best moments of television ever!
When I saw this first, I was speechless; my sister gasped, my mum let out a little scream... and then we were all laughing and discussing how incredible that was. Thanks for putting up the scene! Also, can I ask for the dungeon scene in "The Unquiet Dead" again? Where the Doctor is very unhappy about the prospect of dying "In a dungeon. In Cardiff!" ?
Come back, Captain Jack! BRING HIM BACK BBC! AND RIVER! Seeing them with Capaldi would be EPIC. Perhaps as epic as this scene. You have an actor like John Barrowman itching to come back, Arrow or no, I've seen the interviews, the stories, the con videos-and you don't use this INCREDIBLY talented man who's character was a fan favorite to so many? That's just plain silly. And he has GOT to meet River. So many good stories there-heck, they could have their own series.
And she and Capaldi were awesome together. One of my favorite Christmas specials. Well I love them all actually, for different reasons.
Anyway-see how well she worked out? Now give us a little Captain in our life!
Captain Jack that is.
I love this scene so much. Ten's face, priceless!
After all these years their reaction still leaves me with a smile
The day I heard that one line “ the face of bone they called me” was the day everyone’s minds were blown and the day of theory’s had began
Brings tears to my eyes, moments such as these is what made Doctor who such a great show. I miss those days.
I die every time. I saw this thing about John and David talking about when they read the script and freaked out
This part gave me the chills and i rewatched it a few times and now i have so so so many questions!
The very scene I felt in love with Doctor Who. I mean, it was really great before - but this moment was just outstanding magical.
When The Face of Boe died I actually cried. And seeing this scene sent ripples across my skin. Such a well done series. To think I didn't want to watch Doctor Who. I am so gladly I finally decided to give it a go. Can't stop watching.
I want Jack back ! He was so fantastic ! And brilliant !
Awesome episode !
You can watch torchwood. wich is a spin-off series of doctor who in wich jack is in every episode. and its about how he prepared the world for the 21 st century
I already watched torchwood, it was great, but not like the real serie. And i want Jack in the tardis, with the Doctor !
I understand that but he cant come back. muffat cant kill him :P
moffat*
Fortunately ^^
I keep feeling like the Doctor's reaction to this matches David's reaction when he first read the script for this scene
Turns out Tennant and Agyeman didn't know either until they performed it
The joy of living in Wales is that I've been to Cardiff Bay way too many times and I get to visit the place where this scene was filmed, along with most of Torchwood and some Doctor Who scenes. It will always be very cool to me.
So perfectly written, the season was crafted brilliantly just like the other two, sometimes it’s nostalgia talking, but rewatching the 10th doctor I have seen what a masterpiece it really was.
Imagine 12 and Jack. It would be hilarious.
Ikr it be like him and missy but with a boy this time
Will King oh God 😂
12: Don't look at my browser history!
Jack looks at browser history.
Jack: What's "Dating for Hermits"?
12: Shut up; you're making that up.
RTDs big twist: The Face of Boe reveal

Pretty sure you mean RTD and not RDJ.
@@KarthikKasturiThePanda Yep
This moment made my heart crumble, and it continues to do so every time i rewatch it
Jack is the face of boe>>jack has a vortex manipulator>> river got hers from dorium maldovar,he said "it's fresh off the wrist of a handsome time agent">> dorium used to work for the headless monks>> the monks behead people>>the face of boe is a face with no body>> MINDBLOWN
*peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew* *BOOM* Mind blown indeed.
Aaand it's now at UNIT black archive
Yes, but its not funny that way ;)
But how did the vortex manipulator wind up in UNIT's Black Archive? It was bequeathed to UNIT by Captain Jack Harkness on the occasion of his death, well one of them......
His body would regrow though.
Baring in mind he's been blown into bits by a bomb before and regenerated back to his full body.
One of my favorite scenes in all of Doctor Who.
0:25 - that's one *thirsty* look Martha's giving there..
can u blame her? :D

Jayfive276 yes
She looks like she died standing.
Its actually kinda concerning.
I miss this Doctor Who. Truly wonderful times. ❤️
Oh wow I used to love watching doctor who for years when I was younger, after joining RAF I realised his jacket is a WW2 RAF greatcoat that’s pretty cool

All of these comments from up to 5 years ago, but he just came BACK!!!!!
Now THIS was top notch quality Dr Who. I cannot wait to see what RTD does for the next season. ❤️🔥
The night I first saw this and Jack dropped that line, I remember standing up so fast, my cup of coffee spilled on the floor, my jaw was hanging and I was like: "They called him WHAT?!!!" This was the biggest plot twist since the ending of 1968's PLANET OF THE APES.
This was the only time in my life, when this moment happened, that I almost had a stroke. I've never felt that way again, as the moment I realized Jack was the Face of Boe and thinking about what all that meant...My Brain was fried for a while after that, nothing ever claim close to it again in this show.
The Doctor: "I can't have you walking around with a time traveling teleport."
Also the Doctor: *walks around with a time traveling teleport*
He is back. He is finally back
Yeah for absolutely no reason at all.
It's terrifying to think just how ancient The Face of Boe truly was.
It's been over 15 years and I can still remember how shook I was after watching this scene for the first time 🤣🤣
Just watching the smiles slide right off of Martha and the Doctor's face when they realize. Priceless!
One of the best 'reveals' in television history, purely for the subtlety of it!
I used to imagine Boe as a giant guy with dreadlocks running through an alien forest.
I love this part, I laughed so much :D
And this is exactly why Jack has to return to the series! BRING THIS MAN BACK! (Arrow is done, he has plenty of time now)
Out of all of Doctor Who this was my favorite moment. My expression matched theirs perfectly and even afterwards I could bearly wrap my head around it.
Jack, the only one that the doctor would allow to salute to him.
Anyone watching after Captain Jack returned in 2020
iAaronBeardmore me
Mee :")
Yes
Couldn't stop laughing when this happened.
This scene gets a bit more interesting when you realize that Jack heard Martha talk about the Face of Boe while Yana was looking at the watch in Utopia. It's like in this moment Jack knew that they'd met another version of him at another point in his timeline & wanted to let them know
Jack was one of the best character to show up with the doctor even when he got his own show he still had it
Oh did i love this episode!! BRING TORCHWOOD BACK!
No, torchwood went on to become its own series.
***** and then got idiotic.
***** Yeah i want the sideshow back
Yeees we need more Torchwood please !!!
Who’s here after *THAT*
Just seeing this makes me sad everytime I see David man but am glad jack back this year
Captain Jack was one of my favorite characters in Doctor Who
Haven't watched Doctor Who in ages but this ending still blows my mind years after seeing it the first time
I think it was in Gridlock that a character in New New New New York said that those highway gases once enlarged a man's head after over exposure.
It's New New New New New New New New New New New New New York
I have an idea to bring Torchwood back and out of limbo -- They could do a feature film of Torchwood on the big screen! Because the producers keep taking the programme to different stages each season: Season one it started as an ordinary sci-fi, adult drama on BBC Three, season two it moved to BBC Two and became a bit darker by losing two main characters, season three it moved to BBC One and was a weeklong miniseries called Children of Earth that was a bit more darker with the destruction of the Torchwood as an official organisation and it's Hub and the loss of another main character, season four Torchwood was brought to America as a full series called Miracle Day and broadcast on the American TV network, Starz as well as BBC One, but with the cast predominantly American which sort of disappointed me a little... It would make sense for the next stage to be a Torchwood movie... If they wanna bring the TV series back, Moffat could take over as producer...
Lol the last 30 seconds is just Matt Smith messing around with a sonic screwdriver
sometimes i come back to this just for the moment of realisation, iconic.
