Capt Jack Harkness in The Doctor Dances

[nekoninja1234]

bananas are good.

[esthae775]

"Have you checked everywhere? UNDER THE SINK?"

this is my favourite Captain Jack line. I don't know why, it just cracks me up to death everytime

[BleachAnime2010]

I miss Nine. I mean, come on! 'I'm sure he would Rose, I'm absolutely certain... But who with?' :3

[07Optimus]

Close the door will you, your ship's about to blow up, there's going to be a draft!

Now who's being cheeky, Ninth Doctor!

[DylanOnMars]

Nine, I miss the hell outta you. You'll always be my Doctor. <3

You, Jack, and Rose had the best chemistry ever.

[Zeyono]

Under the sink?!

[Iambored1com]

"Don't drop the banana!"

"Why not?"

"Good source of potassium!"

Major lol!

[NerrissCullen]

UNDER THE SINK!!

[KendrixTermina]

Nine and Jack trying their best to outcool each other to impress Rose = funny as hell.

[KendrixTermina]

"Who looks at a Screwdriver and thinks, oh this could be a little more sonic?"

"What you've never been bored?" - This story is expanded in "A Christmas Carol." apparently, the Doctor once had the choice of kissing a girl or developing a new kind of screwdriver, and chose the latter, probably not noticing the girl's intentions. The girl in question might be the Rani, since the Doctor apparently(and the Master certainly) had the hots for her back at the academy.XD

[Aetera]

Does anyone else find it a bit suspicious that the Doctor feels it necessary to constantly remind Jack that he "likes bananas"?

And then tricks Jack into holding his banana?

[EnigmaDrath]

LOL The guys bickering over the validity of a sonic screwdriver while poor Rose is the only one thinking practically.

[agent502]

This is the first time I've watched the ninth doctor, and I must say, I might watch him more, 'cause he's AWESOME!!!

[uofc57]

@agent502 He's definitely just as amazing as Ten - just different - a little darker and sadder, but lots of integrity and compassion

[TheCastellan]

Did Jack ever get those 2 years of memory back?

[westlife4life93]

@TheCastellan I dont think he has yet. not 100% sure tho x

[DrWhoFan000]

i just relised that captain jack has played alot episode since 2005 in doctor who he played a total of 10 episodes thats more than micky i think

[CrazyGood88]

I absolutely ADORE David Tennant as the tenth doctor, but i truly madly deeply miss Chris Eccleston. He was mine and my mom's favorite Doctor before Tennant and he still makes me smile and wish for him whenever i see the reruns...his and Rose's chemistry-though different from her's and nine's-had an 'oomph' to it that went beyond compare

[TheCastellan]

Me too, I liked Eccleston alot more. Plus his sort of world weary persona was good as well. He reminds me of Tom Baker in some ways.

[CrazyGood88]

exactly...

[mildetryth]

Is that just me, or is that a seriously WICKED grin the Doctor gives when he sees Jack holding that banana at 2:00?

[jessevb]

the human mission is to get out there and "dance"

[january301973]

The ship that Jack stole crashed to Earth was a form of ambulance - the nanogenes inside had never seen a human and when they saw Jamie they assumesd that all humans were like that. That is why the zombies wore gas-marks and had scars on the backs of their hands. Jack thought that The Doctor and Rose were Time Agents That is why he sent the ambulance through time so he could con them into thinking that it was more valuable than it was really worth.

[00Indy]

these tie for the second scariest doctor who episodes i have seen, and high up on the funniest scale too

[airbrushaz]

My absolute favorite doctor who line of all time...

"Well I've got a banana and in a pinch you could put up some shelves"

LMAO, priceless!

[IsobelsTeaParty]

"Don't drop the banana!!!!"

[ErikMogan]

:D Captain Jack is the kinda guy I wanna be in the future.

[ladymeserole]

That's kind of scary. Have you seen Torchwood?

[ErikMogan]

Yes I have, and I know that the things the Captain and I have in common are a bit scary, but I don't blame you.

[HeroesandDrWhofan]

love the dig at pompeii were they trying to tell us something

- no, i just think that the fires of pomeii episode was a referance to this one. because it was writen 2 years before.

[hayenga1]

"Who looks at a Screwdriver and thinks, oh this could be a little more sonic?"

"What you've never been bored? Never had a long night? Never had a lot of cabinets to put up?"

LMAO! I love how they dont listen to Rose when shes looking for the light switch!!!!

[nimi1611]

ar=t 7.02 wat the hell is jack on

[Queen0ftheCastle]

A german bomb that was about to blow up the ship that'd crash landed.

[Hawkeye52431]

You just can't beat the writing in this episode:

"Well I've got a banana and in a pinch you could put up some shelves" - "Window?"

"Barred, sheer drop outside, seven stories"

"And no other exits"

"Well... the assets conversation went in a flash didn't it?"

OR

"Okay... one, we've got to get out of here; two, we can't get out of here - have I missed anything?"

As I say, the writing's genius! - Kudos to Steven Moffat :)

[mildetryth]

I know! I think Moffat is one of the most talented writers they have in the team. He writes scary AND funny! Plus, I absolutely adored that little thing he wrote for Children In Need, with the Fifth Doctor.

[SugarRushOMG]

wow you love john barrowman. Guess, what(i bet you'll be jelous ;] ) my mate went to one of his concerts ha she sed it was brill, Just thought id let you know lol

[Voyeuristik]

xoxoxoxoxox

[theGoodguyChuck82]

"A sonic what?" "Screw driver." lol. got to love JAck

[GwenCooper01]

love the dig at pompeii were they trying to tell us something

[littleChloe22]

"Who looks at a screwdriver and thinks "this could be a bit more sonic""

lol

[torchwood234]

i love the switch were jack pulls out a banana

hilarious

[ingahauks]

When did he(Jack) die?

[torchwood234]

he died in parting of the ways and rose brought him back 2 life

[montreuxJazz]

and that's why he can't die??

[BetaArtemis]

thats right, when Rose brought Jack back to life, she couldnt control the power, so she accidently brought him back forever.

the Doctor explains this in the series three episode "Utopia"

[lvble4ever]

Hahahaha I <3 Jack

[crayonpafc]

ooooh dance ;)

god i never picked that up before!

[HippyHobbit]

Thank you! I've been looking for that "Volcano Day" quote at the start since it featured in the trailer for series 4 episode 2. My Who-vian friends were looking at me like I was mad when I was saying "No, seriously Jack said about Volcano Day, in series one! It's an injoke!"

They'll have to belive me now! Thanks so much!

[qaffangyrl]

you're welcome!

Do you watch Torchwood? DId you like the Tosh.Owen exchange about the "space pig" from DW Aliens of London?

[crayonpafc]

i didnt see that ... or if i did i cant remember it now

do you have a clip of it?

[crayonpafc]

ive been looking for that scene aswel ...

thought the preview for s4 ep2 was a bit familiar

ah captain jack does weird and wonderful things to peoples minds

[timelady1994]

Ten is way better than nine i love David tennant and John borrowman they are cute

[Wizzosis]

captain Jack has matured a lot since his first appearance in doctor who. In season 1 he's very childish and all over the place but in season 2 and in torchwood he's matured and gotten more serious but he still has that childish way about him which I love but the guy did hitchhike through an entire century before he ended up in torchwood so that kind of explains it all.

[TaienQuinn]

and he's not yet immortal

[shinystarlight]

I started watching Torchwood cos im an insane slasher and my friend showed me the Jack/Ianto kiss in the end of End of Days. I watched the whole series then, and then bought Dr. Who season one. So I kind of did it backwards. I know some people didnt like Captain Jack when he first appeared on the scene, but I loved him from Torchwood so I liked him from the start. its great to see him so carefree in these clips though. He doenst have the wieght of immortality bringing him down.

[bridgetj5]

The weight of immortality bringing him down is a really good point. He's less serious and brooding here.

[LaraMcK]

I am in the same boat. I don't know anything about Dr. Who--or even what the mission of a time agent is.

Help help. Any back story is helpful.

[Wizzosis]

PM me and I'll try to give you as much backstory as possible.

[shinystarlight]

I miss Nine! Don't get me wrong, David Tennant is beyond awesome, but I adore Christopher Eccelston. He and John Barrowman had great chemestry. It's good to see how far Jack has come since then. We was far less jaded then, but also far more selfish. How far he's come..

[qaffangyrl]

I liked Nine but I LOVE Ten. I just always have this big stupid grin on my face everytime I see David Tennant on screen.

ANd I agree about Jack's growth. That's why I wanted to post these so the TW fans would have a better context of how far Jack had come.

[TaienQuinn]

Christopher Eccleston was better at Linguistic jokes he was also more enigmatic than Tennant. Tennant has the edge when it comes to physical expression but I'd love to have seen how muych further Christopher Eccleston could have gone - I wonder if they could ever write Eccleston back into a few episodes.

[Merilka]

@TaienQuinn Theoretically they could, because we never saw his regeneration into the Ninth, so they could write like Season 0. I have a whole arch for a season before the Time War with references to the next seasons and a companion and everything XD

[ErikaChristine]

I only saw the first part of that episode, so thank you so much for putting this up!!! :D

[qaffangyrl]

you're welcome!

[bridgetj5]

LOL. Haven't seen this in ages. It's nice to see how far Jack's come from this to Torchwood.

[qaffangyrl]

Oh I totally agree! It brings so much more depth to his actions.
