that's why some of these heroes even have identity problems themselves.
I always think heroes with identity problems are more fun than those without identity problems.
His last teenage years or first twenties years got to be very violent.
Even the way he spoke of the enemy as "the worst creatures" implies that he still lives with that trauma. Whoever they were. I'd guess Daleks, except that evidence in "The Parting of the Ways" would contradict that.
No wonder his self-defence switch is always fully on.
A permanent state for him.
All this reminds me how happy it is to see him and everyone else act all silly like some kids in 'Boomtown'...
I love those scenes so much: Jack is so entirely and completely happy with Rose and the Doctor. It's good to see, and such a contrast to what follows.
