It's a little complicated and it's something of a spoiler. Shall I explain? Shall I leave spoiler space in case you don't want to hear?
Okay, I'll do that. If you don't want to know, avert your eyes now.

Enough space?
Okay.
The hero of the story, the leader of Torchwood 3, played by John Barrowman, is called Captain Jack Harkness, but he took the name as part of a scam he pulled when he was a con man in mid-1941. In the episode of Torchwood called "Captain Jack Harkness" he goes back in time to January 1941 and meets up with the man whose name he took, a heroic RAF pilot, the original Captain Jack Harkness, played by Matt Rippy. And our Jack falls for that Jack so it's all very romantic.
