to be added
Cast[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Captain Jack Harkness - John Barrowman

Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Constantinople is being targeted by the allies.
- The Ottomans and Australians are engaged at Gallipoli.
- Ali was Ata's late older brother who identified as a conscientious objector, though Ata tells Jack that he was a coward and a liar who had no principles. He had physically abused Ata since childhood.
- Jack admits that he still fears death even after experiencing it so many times, remaining ever uncertain whether his next death will be his last.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Though one could assume that Jack's appearance in World War I would place this story during his time waiting for the Doctor through the 20th century between The Parting of the Ways and Everything Changes, it is the authorial intent of director Scott Handcock that, from Jack's perspective, this story be placed not long after the death of Ianto Jones in Children of Earth. This would establish that Jack had somehow been able to travel through time despite the Tenth Doctor's disabling of his vortex manipulator in Journey's End. However, the intended placement is not made clear in the story itself.[1]
