21. Captain Jack Casually Revealing That He's The Face Of Boe
There was another surprise in store for fans in Series 3's Last of the Time Lords when Captain Jack Harkness dropped an almighty bombshell by casually revealing that he's the Face of Boe. Sort of. It's never actually confirmed either way, of course, but since Jack is immortal and heralds from a place called the Boeshane Peninsula, all the evidence is definitely there. Still, how he eventually turns into a gigantic head in a jar remains to be seen, and fans will probably never find out since Jack is one of the biggest mysteries to enter the Whoniverse since the Sixth Doctor's multi-coloured coat. A riddle wrapped inside an enigma. And no, that isn't a euphemism.
