I liked the conversation in the stet radiation room, but it added in even more continuity problems regarding Jack's immortality.
Agreed. He seemed impervious to the radiation, but we know that although Jack is immortal, he is not invulnerable. Things kill him even though he gets up again. So what was going on? And how did the Doctor know it would work the way it did when he hadn't heard of Stet radiation before?
I don't know and it didn't really bother me, but I'd like to see the story through through better.... Perhaps stet radiation makes a person's body and limbs fall away and they eventually turn into the Face of Boe.
Yerk. I'm sorry I had that thought. Ignore it, please.
Jack didn't realize he had been changed until being killed on Ellis Island.. so he didn't notice he hadn't aged in the 23 years since he'd returned to Earth?
He did say he was slow. Maybe people age slowly in the 51st century.
