Doctor Who/Torchwood question

[rm]

Because I still have gaping holes in my canon knowledge and an idea percolating:



If the Face of Boe was once Jack, would the Doctor know this? And if so, when would he know it?

Also, who did Jack make the off-hand remark about it in front of? I've not seen that episode of whatever it was yet.

(Can I just say I hate asking time related questions about a circular, knotted time-line?)

This is the logistical thing (not how he wound up in that form, but at what point he was no longer human enough to have to make this transition or admit to it, if that makes sense) that I keep thinking about but still find too weird and difficult to get near.

I got stuck wondering where he made that transition.

Yup. Although of course now that I'm like "I can't figure this out" I'm sort of starting to get an idea.

He mentions the nickname of Face of Bo while pondering that while hes long lived the white hairs have started to pop in and what will he be like in a million years.
