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?)

Thank you - I managed to completely miss that bit. I have no idea how.

And I'm really...wow. That just seems so horrible to me, that this is Jack's fate. The Face of Boe has changed from a peaceful sort of mysterious alien life form to something achingly sad and terrifying to me.

Right. Right? LIke this is now apparently all I want to write about in the DW/TW universe, because I am SO FREAKED OUT. But I already wasn't doing complete sentence vfor about 12 hours after I finished that piece last night.
