fic poutage
Jan. 30th, 2007 01:47 pmWell, aside from 'argh, not another bloody story where Jack's confused about the Doctor's new appearance'. PEOPLE. He works for Torchwood. Who catalogue the Doctor's appearances obsessively. He has Ten's *hand*. There was this thing called the Battle of Canary Wharf, where the Doctor was *in* Torchwood One, and they all bloody well recognised him as Ten, so I think there's just a *slight* chance that Jack knows exactly what Ten looks like. Plus, he's been on the slow path since the early years of the 20th Century, so I think there's a very high chance that he knows exactly what all the regenerations of the Time Lord look like.
I can buy that Torchwood Three don't know that the Tardis took Jack - there's a high chance the cctv was blurred or something by the TARDIS's presence.
But please. Stoppit with the 'Jack doesn't know that the Doctor now looks like a certain Scots actor.'
Trying to figure out whether it's worth sticking a line in the latest fic about Jack having played the lead on Broadway in The Gay Divorce and shagging Cole Porter. Yes, Astaire was in the *opening* cast of all three openings of that show, (one in '32, one in early '33 when it moved theatres, and when it transferred to the Palace in London in Nov '33), but I think you may notice that Astaire did Flying Down to Rio in '33 as well as one other film.
...I still can't believe no-one's at least dropped one single fricking line about De-Lovely in a Torchwood fic. John Barrowman's character was *named* Jack, fer crissakes! Platter much until we get concrete canon about exactly what Jack was up to in 1933, people?
