  • Hehe I'd go for sexually transmitted immortality and if that didn't work then number ten but seriously they are really smart ideas well done ;) u should send then to him

  • Omg! Your vid made me realize there is a way to bring Ianto back if the writers wanted him to come back!! The Nanogenes!! Jack could get them (idk where from though) and use them on Ianto and it could bring him back like it brought back the kid in Dr. Who!

  • BRING IANTO JONES, BACK ! The pain is so bad. :'( Think about Jack. He loved him.

  • Remember droppergangers. Jack can make a ianto droperganger and swap them when ianto goes into the building before he dies. So ianto lives and the dropperganger dies. That or he could be saved

  • The nanogenes seems the most plausible. Plus in the episode the Doctor says that because those nanogenes have never seen a human they assume they're all meant to be like the epty child. What if Jack was healed by some that had never seen a human, they think everyone should be immortal, he uses them on Ianto and POOF. Immortal Ianto and immortal Jack, together for all eternity...ok I'm going to write that down in fanfic form...

  • @naboobolo I had the same idea! But yours is better than mine lol!! :)

  • I actually liked the 'it was all a dream one'- it would mean Jack never sacrificed his grandson after all </3

  • Or Ianto just could be stuck somewhere on the other side of the rift (House of the Dead ending?). But I do love the sexually transmitted imortality one, lol!!!!

  • Btw, this was a message from Belgium.

    Cause even here we love Ianto and support the character !

  • I don't understand why they keep him dead, after all what the fan make for him to come back. Everybody loved Ianto !

    And plus: W*F ?! it's science fiction ! There's a million way to bring him back to live with sens.

    I don't understand. It piss me off !

    I really love that character, and his dead broke my heart. I just want to be in front of russell T davies and scream " What the hell have you done ? ! Are you stupid ?"

    Anyway... I keep hopping they'll change their mind... and bring IANTO BACK !

  • @Sayori382 I am in complete agreemenet - he was always my fav character with his cute Welsh vowels and interesting personality.

    I love how you put the asterix in 'The' in WTF, rather than in 'F**k' -- WT*

  • hm, I have 11th idea. Flesh, matter that clones people. All Jack needs to do is live until time travel and flesh is normal and go back, kidnap Ianto and put flesh instead of him. No time would be rewritten, he would just wake up when his flesh clon dies, and in Jack's arms :)

  • Nanogenes. All I gotta say.

    (Why haven't they made a comeback?)

  • the timewatch idea, me and my best mate had that, as in ianto is a timelord, like the doctors son. then i had the idea that yeah the time war wiped out the doctor's family, ianto's timeline was rewritten so he was born human. then the doctor gives the watch to ianto and brings him back as a timelord. mmmm, great idea for a video that. okay, i'm doing that lol x

  • love the ST Immortality lol :P that would be awesome. dont get how the first time jack kissed ianto he brought him back but the second time it didnt work. afterall both times ianto was dead x

  • can't they just use nanogenes for everything?

  • I didn't see if it ever got answered, what episode is the first clip from?!

  • @kiriika "The Parting of the Ways" - the new Doctor Who, ep 1x13, the story arc with Jack in it

  • u should soo send that to steven moffat^^

  • I actually remember Eve Myles saying in one of the Declassified episodes: "anyone can come back in Torchwood."

    Take that, RTD!

  • I think the nanogenes are the best idea...

  • WHich episode was the one at 0:10-0:13

  • @andreavillanuevam Torchwood 3x03 - Children of Earth, Day 3

  • It was like "Screw it! No one likes him anyways!"Ass Holes

  • is ianto banging jack? pardon me i've yet to watch the show.

  • If Jack's immortality could be transmitted sexually, there would be way more immortal people in the universe than any of us can even imagine.

  • @MaebySurelyBarely XD true that

  • What is with the stop watch?!

  • I'm tempted to say it's worth wanthing CoE for this video!

  • I started watching Torchwood because of Janto, how can I ever keep on watching it Ianto died?! No... I REFUSE myself to see only Jack and Gwen, or even worse: Jack and a new guy! HELL NO!!!

  • sadly the best anyone will get is a 10 second flashback or dream sequence for series 4

  • They're probably going to bring him back in one way or another. He's too popular to stay down for long.

  • @awfulsails Oh I really hope so. It would be too painful to see Jack without him. :-(

  • There are douzens or ways they could bring him back to live without it being all that weird, but instead they killed of pretty much all of the team. Nice going guys...

  • 'Sexually Transmitted Immortality' AHAHAHAHA :D

  • honestly, i don't care how full of plot holes or badly written it could be, I love Ianto so much they can bring him back however the hell they want and i wouldn't care! XD

  • Was it just me or did the risen mitten ( Best name ever ^^ ) Move after Jack threw it away..... ( if so, this better have a plot twist so Ianto gets reserrected in series 4)

    Love No 3 and 9 ( but No 2 and 10 would probably work)

  • I'm with you on the nanogenes but didn't they cause alot of trouble last time they brought something back to life? "Are you my mummy!" Sort of thing sept it would be. "Are you my Jack!" lol

  • i'm glad i'm not the only person who thought that the stopwatch was definitely a fobwatch... he should definitely be brought back. gwen? who's she? ianto was the heart of torchwood.

  • I think it should have all been a dream, and make a surprise, that Ianto should be brought back.

    And I want Owen and Tosh back as well.. /:

  • OMG i love that you thought of nanogenes i've been thinking that ever since he died! and im thinking what a good idea, i mean jack was there and then he leaves earth at the end of COE day 5 and im like FIND SOME NANOGENES JACK!!!! :) so yeah nice :)

  • I agree with Queenoftheweevils: I, too, like sexually transmitted immortality!

    Ianto needs to be resurrected--just on ifs or buts--- but a MUST!!  not for Jack, but for Ianto fans like ME!! 8)

  • Oh yes! If only RTD would make this true!

  • Even if they reanimate him, it wouldn´t be the same.

  • yeah man BRING HIM BACK!!!! no season 4 without Ianto Jones!!!

  • this vidio got me wishing that if jack could find the doctor then maby just maby he could get ianto back and torchwood....

    or maby im just a geek missing them all

  • I'm rooting for sexually transmitted immortality

  • NANOGENES!! NANOGENES!!! NANOGENES!! You could make a realy cool story line with that as well.... NANOGENES!! We love JANTO & IANTO!!!! BRING HIM BACK!! :(

  • The doctor introduces him to Alonso (-.-) in end of time, so it's pretty clear he isn't gonna do nothing about this...why should he?...

    We want Ianto back! : (

  • NANOGENES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • He's dead.

  • What about the risen Mitten? I think it's catchy ;D

  • Or he could just randomly show up again one day without explanation, and to be honest, I'd question it at first, then just be content that he was back :)

  • Very well done. Especially enjoyed the "sexually transmitted immortality" :D And the "all just a dream" version was cool.

    The most probable are the nanogenes - remember, they brought (eventually) the 4-year-old back to life.

    Needs some more work though. Haven't understood half of your ideas... Actually, now that I think about it, most of them include Jack crossing his own time line. Do you really think he'd do such a thing, even for Ianto?

    Finally: stopwatch - classic! What about rooftops? ;)

  • Possible. If series 4 airs or when it dose will u watch cause i know alot of people who wont because of ianto's death

  • I kno i was saying there is more than one pair, but the vortex manipulator is also varying even when the doctor fixed it he didnt appear when and where he wanted to, but ya anythings possible and the doctors tardis changed into a type 40 which uses a new key the old series says that and the key was roses who took it back before jack was shot, and the paradox part was made by the master any other paradox would make the tardis inside dissapear as scene in fathers day, but ya i agree anything is p

  • And bring someone back to life jack cant die so ya it worked with owen?

  • U know ianto was a cool charecter and yea he destroyed the glove, the vortex manipulator dosnt work the same, the doctor took back the key, sti is possible i guess?, and the doctor would lock him away forever if he turned the tardis into a paradox machine, but remember the endimg of the end of time that glove rassilon had there is actually a large ppssibility that that was the glove (risen mitten) wich leaves sooo many possiblitys that can happen plus if jack can never die it would kill him ( f

  • @garrateen9

    Who says only one pair of gloves ever existed? The vortex manipulator can be fixed. When did the Doctor take back Jack's key!?! The TARDIS already was a paradox machine, so if let's say team Torchwood was doing what they do and perhaps snuck onboard the Valiant to sabotage it or something, they were in the eye during the big reverse, and tada, second set of them! Point being, ANYTHING is possible. This is sci-fi. :)

  • @girlwhowasntthere if you look at the two gloves they are not the same pair, the first one has rounded fingers while the second one has pointy fingers, witch means there are atleast two more gloves out there.

  • @girlwhowasntthere time can be rewritten :) ..nuff said!

  • @girlwhowasntthere Also, the risen mittens look like the glove of Rassilon which TAKES LIFE. Perhaps it can GIVE LIFE as well?

  • Didn't hey destroy the 2 glove

  • sexually transmitted immortality made me giggle

  • Nanogenes seem to be most likely.

  • Lol so much at three.

  • Number three, LOL, number nine if only.

  • This was great ;D If they would bring him back he has to be the same old Ianto! That means... not boring.

  • My favorite way is the stop watch.

  • you should send this in. all compelling. i mean, yes. i would want to rip my hair out if CoW was all a dream, but it'd be worth it to bring ianto back. i mean, kill gwen. it'd be so much better.

    JANTO FOR LIFE!

  • You know you might have something in the stopwatch idea

  • Two Words: Risen Mitten

  • I so Want that to happen

  • what ever happened with that ominous "gloves always come in pairs" comment. or wait, did they find a second glove? i seriously cant remember

  • @Rikoshima It was the second glove that they used on Owen.

  • @girlwhowasntthere

    point is, the glove wasn't the same as the other one. so who says there aren't 2 pairs of gloves? really? it's getting boring though... + there were enough problems explaining the difference between Zombie!Owen and "I can't die"-Jack...

  • @Rikoshima no the Timelords have the second glove. just watch the End Of Time Part 2 in Doctor Who and u will see that the Timelord President has the glove.

  • lol, bloody brilliant.Loved the first ones and that hysterical last !

  • Genius!!!

  • WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! we need the Ninth Doctor to come and bring Ianto Back!!!!!!!!! i miss them both! :(

  • I hope. Oh, I hope!

    Have enjoyed all of your videos. Heartbreaking Themes 1 & 2 - awesome, too!  (Did I hear 3??? Yeah, you said that!)

  • @hubblespacepaws

    Actually, it's more like reprises 3 through 7 now in the works. However, I'm taking a hiatus until massively pestered, so don't hold your breath on those.

  • I love you for this!

    I can live in hope!

  • # 10 is probably the best choice, but I think it's a little deus ex Machina for RTD.

    maybe if the ratings are bad for the american version they'll bring him back that way. :)

  • AHH This is amazing - Stick that in your pipe and smoke it Russel T. Davies There you go, 10 perfectly good reasons why you can bring Ianto back - Apart from it was all a dream xD

  • hope bbc is watching this :)

  • Sexually Transmitted Immortallity LOL

  • i'm liking STImortality...

  • lol at our school everyone was ragin when ianto died and there like - "omfg were was the doctor bitch" :L

  • IT'S THE RISEN MITTEN!

  • I LOVE DREAMS!

  • i like this show because its one of very few that the main guy is gay. but people die too much

  • Thank you for giving hope to Ianto fans! I love this video ♥

  • *has an idea* Nanogenes, programmed for Jack's DNA, which would, in theory, give any being they came into contact with, immortality.

    On the other hand, they might make Ianto look like Jack as well.

    Hmm.

    11: John Hart has a WORKING vortex manipulator and misses Eye Candy

  • i don't really care how but bring ianto back!!!!!!!!!!i miss gareth david lloyd-he's so cute!

  • ianto shoun't have died.....in these tv series there is too much death....i really like ianto+jack....when i saw him dying i wanted to stop watching those last eps,couse i was furious T_T give him back!!!!!(to the one who killed him in story/script)

  • I really like the idea of the stopwatch ;D

  • just thought of something... what was the anti-virus for at the beginning of the Children of Earth series? Would that bring Ianto back???

  • The anti-virus was for a different thing

    Something that was gonna affect humans, so the 456 offered that in exchange for 12 kiddies

    Me thinks...

    Not quite sure

    But I think that's the jist

    :/

    And I have a whole book of possibilities

    It's quite sad really T.T

  • like you have on the video, there are so many options for Ianto to come back. Seriously, Jack and Ianto were like the ideal gay couple... they're just perfect for each other!

  • @pixiedreamer13

    i wouldn't call them "ideal gay couple", which would be a total wrong appellation for them.

    they were so unique coz they havn't such a defined relationship and defined sexuality - even if COE made such a wrong idea of them .. a side effect, coz the wanted to make the thing between jack and ianto clear to people, who never looked any torchwood season before..

  • Ianto needs to come back!

  • u noticed how much ianto looks like dr number 10. ok, we saw him like tht before jack saw the doctor as DT. but i just noticed. and in an episode of dr who the doctor says "its like when u fancy sum1 n they dont even no u exist". martha looks sad, so jack says "you too huh". maybe jack keeps ianto in the suit n sneakers with sideburns n spikey hair for tht reason, as well as him looking gd anyway

  • Nanogenes! Yay!

    That dream one can't happen. It was established in The End of Time that the events of Children of Earth did happen.

  • Don't forget what happened with River Song. Brain waves amplified to the point where she technically got brought back to life.

  • nanogenes plz

  • NANOGENES!!!! if russell doesnt bring ianto back i will hunt hin down. and eat him.

  • saveiantojones,com  < here's another way :D lol

  • Omg that was great!

    The bit where Jack lets himself into the tardis, I was totally waiting for him to shout "Honey i'm home" ^_^

  • lol! I had really thought about the kiss thing but... the nanogenes!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:DD:D:D:D:D keep our fingers crossed that RTD or Gareth or John or someone sees this :D:D:D:D

  • and what if jack did put dome of his life back in to him just it needs sometime to work you know like at the end of season one (i think it was not forsure sadly i haven't watched a lot of this :()

  • oh hell,if immortality is a sexually transmitted condition,half this planet,through direct contact or by the "condition"being passed onto children would be immortal because of Jack:P

  • saveiantojnoes,com

  • anyone know the name of the song playing in the background?!?!?

  • That brilliant here's hoping on nanogens in series4

    I do miss ianto though

  • I dont really know how, but...Ianto must come back to jack in season 4.....that is real love....brilliant partnes

  • Sexually Transmitted Immortality? Yeah, you gotta watch out for those STI's... ;-)

  • Two words: Alternate Ianto. LOL

    If Jackie can have a parallel Pete and Rose can have her human Doctor why can't Jack have an alternate Ianto?

  • Ok, Lucozade... its a bit of fun....

    Pity that it would all be a bit screwy if they bought him back. Kinda defeys the point of killing a character.

    Before anyone says it. Owen was written in, that WAS possible...

    Gonna miss Ianto all the same, Love the vid... If only...

  • So why can Owen's resurrection be written in but not Ianto's?

  • Fingers crossed for the nanogenes!!!

  • Jack can't mess with time without deadly consequences (not even the Doctor can), the stop watch was a normal watch, the vortex is far too dangerous and the Doctor won't allow it, and the Ressurection Gaunlet were both destroyed-- they also alow Death into our universe, so that can't happen, either.

    The only possible thing is Nano Genes.

  • or Sexually Transmitted Immortality. :)

  • @shutterflie Don't we all wish that was real?

  • @shutterflie So THAT'S why in Miracle Day people won't die anymore... ;P

  • I love you

    girlwhowasntthere

    I just watched the ... i cant say it ... and i almost started crying (ment to be doing homework parents would noticed) then i saw this and i almost got in trouble for laughing... and screaming with joy!

  • All the above!!! They must do a follow up show with him bringing Ianto back...........they must, and how about all the others too. I couldn't believe how they killed them all off!! thanks, great video

  • Brilliant ideas. And quite honestly, about half of them would definitely work. RTD can be a genius, but my goodness, the man just can't wrap his head around the fact that everybody loves Ianto. And the only reason he hasn't killed off Gwen yet is because that's his favorite character. *rolls eyes*

    But anyway, great theories, and I hope some get put to work in the new season. Especially the nanogenes one; bloody brilliant!

  • Aaahhhh!!!! I like sexually transmitted immortality :) but the nanogenes thing is a really good idea....I wish I wouldve thought of it first....

  • Love it love it LOVE IT. I wish RTD would see this... ¬_¬

    (STEAL HER IDEAS RTD, STEAL THEM!)

  • Another way Ianto can come back to life - He is the son of the Master. His father hated him and broke his arm once (we find out this info in COE). What if Ianto's mother had an affair and Ianto was the result (somewhat like Jenny- able to regenerate). Just a thought and it would fix the major mistake RTD made when killing off another character. Come on how many shows has anyone seen where you kill off 3/4 of the original crew over 2 seasons and RTD had to leave alive the annoying Gwen.

  • Brilliant ! =)

    Save the coffee boy ! Not only Jack loves him, many fans do at well !

  • has anyone notesed that only two of those options were plasable

  • Brilliant! LOL

  • If only :)

  • Briljant Just Briljant :)

  • Okay, either RTD is an idiot or he thinks the fans are. Because writing something as fantastic as nanogenes into canon, having a TIME TRAVELLING ALIEN friend teach Jack a life-altering lesson about them, and then presume we're all going to believe he just up and forgot about them?! When he lost the man he loves AND sacrificed his grandson to save humanity?!

    COME ON.

  • Three letters: L O L

    Especially the STI part.

    :)

  • ok people

    do you realize that jacks immortality costs exactly 1 death(allready done :(), 1 headache, and one of the doctor's regenerations

    and voila, jack and ianto 2gether4ever

    .....if only the writers would allow it :((

  • I don't get it.

  • did you watch the doctor who episodes with jack

    ..you know his character originated on the show rite?

    his immortality didnt just happen, it was part of the season finale

    rose channeled the time vortex by looking into the heart of the TARDIS...?

  • So you're saying that someone should look into the heart of the TARDIS and bring Ianto back?

    (I did see that DW episode a couple years ago, long before I knew what Torchwood was.)

  • yes, theoretically

    actually, definitely

  • Though then the person who did it would die themselves - Rose would've, if the Doctor hadn't taken the energy out of her. For Jack that wouldn't be a problem, but... if he's been revived by the time vortex, I wonder if he can actually look into it himself?

  • This video reminded me, whatever WAS the purpose of the stopwatch that Ianto was talking about with Jack?

  • Kinky innuendo that makes you wonder and laugh as you cruise through pages of fanfic about it.

    And to put Jack and Ianto in a cute moment together.

  • But we've seen him open it before without consequences so that's out isn't it?

  • there is a story on fanfiction that uses method 3 to bring ianto back to life.the story is sin from my lips.

  • Aw, dammit, now I miss Ianto even more. But I'm kinda glad RTD isn't going to bring him back - that would ruin the impact of CoE. Gotta say, I LOVE the STI idea, though.

  • Actually, you've got a point!

  • Hi there. The Save Ianto Jones Campaign would like to include your vid in a promo DVD we are putting together. Would you be interested in contributing. Thanks

  • Wasn't I already asked this? Or was that a different "save Ianto" campaign? Whichever, my answer is yes. I had no problem using somebody else's show to make my vid, so would be kinda hypocritical for me to object to others using my vid for whatever they want. But do try to be nice to the entire Torchwood crew (no throwing the DVDs at RTD as weapons), and no selling your promos for profit either.

  • Some bad ideas in here... (well, the glove for example. Wouldn't want him to turn out like Owen, or the paradox machine. Destroy the universe for one man=? Where are they going to make out?) Nanogenes and the stop watch.... PERFECT! I vote stop watch. Ianto timelord? Puuurrrrfect! Longer timespan, for one...

  • I'm actually all for a bit of consequence. You can't just bring him back without a bit of a price. Wooohooo, glove!

    But if you're gonna get all upset over a little universe destruction, then fine, scratch using a paradox machine AGAIN. Use the one that ALREADY HAPPENED in canon. The Master was aware of Torchwood, so who says they weren't aware of him, did a bit of sneaking onboard the Valiant, and were actually there during the big time reverse. Oh look, a second team! Gotta love a paradox!

  • Well, yes, but then that would still be in the past, and voila: Ianto is dead >.> Face it, the paradox is a complicated no no for deranged lunatics with two hearts. Although even he couldn't pull it off in the end.

    Nope. I'm for the pocket watch. I mean, sure he lives longer, but Jack lives longer still *shrug* You know, if he was a time lord, he'd have to actually be someone else, so Ianto will stil´l be gone... Damn. Okay, Nanogenes! Work your magic!

  • Actually, if you watch the Dr Who ep that I think is called "The Doctor's Daughter," then we have a canon example for both the fact that Ianto didn't instantly regenerate, and also he still gets to be played by GDL.

    As for the paradox thing, only one Ianto is dead, the other is still alive and being held prisoner by UNIT to prevent him from touching himself-- wait, that didn't come out right. To prevent there being a paradox caused by two Ianto's. Now that the other is dead, problem solved.

  • Oh, you meant because of the watch/human thing, not the regeneration thing!

    Umm... difference between a stopwatch and a fog watch?

    Or his parents pulled a Cal-El and sent baby Ianto away to Earth when their planet was destroyed in the Time War, and he was secretly adopted by the Jones family, and that is the only life Ianto has lived, and he won't revert into somebody else upon becoming a Time Lord again, he'll just get to learn the truth about his past and that he's not human.

  • Okay, preemptive comment on the "but Ianto died when he was still human, so he's still dead" reply that I'm bound to get. I'm gonna say, no, he didn't. The watch was damaged in the explosion, and he's been a Time Lord again since that point, just didn't realize it.

    Hehe, this game is fun.

  • Aw, right... They were called "fog watches".. wishful thinking made me forget :\

    The Cal-El story is good, but it's been done before. No... How 'bout human cloning? I know a few cats we could hire ;)

  • I like 1 and 3 the best :P, but I don't care if RTD chose to bring Ianto back through unexplained magic or prayer, just bring him back! As Billie said, he could easily find a way if he wanted to.

  • all 100% correct.

    but ianto didnt die in the first place coz series 3 never happened. duh!

  • #10 was my first thought after I finished watching Day 4.

    It's like they killed off Ianto just to spite us, because they already have the perfect solution to bringing him back. I mean, you'd expect Jack would remember something like that when he's lost both Ianto AND his grandson, wouldn't you? *sigh*

  • "Sexualy transmitted immortality" XD

  • I think #10 is how season 2 should of ended.

  • I really don't expect them to bring Ianto back, but your ideas FTW!

  • nanogenes, they could make that kind of plausible and anyway who cares if it brings ianto back xx

  • they broke  both risen mittens

  • Ianto cannot die!!! it's just not possible, Good 10 ways to bring him back, and I reckon they should use one! =p xxx

  • One Idea is that when they erase his files on TW computer they come across a video like Tosh's and Ianto says 'I'm not dead yet, I have combined my DNA with Jack's' and they turn around and see his body bag moving...just an idea

  • Another thought is, Ianto is the son of The Master--- just like The Doctor has a daughter (Jenny). I was so waiting for yellow/gold light to come from Ianto's lips in the hanger scene with all the bodies around.

  • Oh, that is a good idea! And it would make a good reason for the Master to go through all the trouble of shipping Jack's team off to the Himalayas rather than simply killing them.

    I've often wondered, with as much of a homicidal maniac that the Master is, why he didn't just kill off Jack's team. You actually came up with a good idea on why the Master would spare Jack's team.

    OTOH, if anyone upset Ianto, imagine what the Master would do!

  • Thx. It would explain why Jack's team wasn't immediately killed off. You would think the Master would consider Torchwood a threat.

  • *nods* Exactly. The Master has a tendency to kill anyone he sees as a threat, and Torchwood would fit that bill.

    Ergo, the idea that maybe Ianto is related to the Master is a good one.

  • Absolutely.

  • Okay I love the idea of Ianto Jones being a hidden TimeLord.

    But I also love that 'sexually transmitted immortality' bit. I CAN believe you said that, as Jack probably did a lot of sexually themed stuff with Ianto. Lots and lots and lots.

    And we all know how much Jack likes sex.

    Sigh... still don't know if I want to watch CoE. I don't think I'm buying the dvds.
