10 Doctor Who Moments You Didn't See Coming

Series 12 of Doctor Who was full of surprises, not all of them welcomed by the fanbase at large. But a moment that was almost universally enjoyed was the return of Captain Jack Harkness, who exploded onto the scene after a ten-year absence.

While it would've been nice to see him get more screen time in the series - and while his next return in Revolution Of The Daleks was a bit of a disappointment - nobody can deny that the moment when we first heard Jack's voice in Fugitive Of The Judoon is the stuff that happiness is made of.

"You missed me, right?" Yes we did sir. Yes we did.

Unlike its shocking handling of the Simm Master reveal in Series 10, the BBC actually managed to keep this moment under wraps too, resulting in a really nice surprise for long-term fans.
