Face of Boe

The face of boe is NOT the typical Boekind. We can only presume that it is an evolved form of Captain Jack Harkness, an exceptional Humanoid in the sense that he is "immortal" or cannot die (never stated he is immortal). Based on all the flashbacks in Torchwood series of Jack Harkness's past, Boekind at the turn of the 51st century were still humanoid in all aspects and infact appear much like earth humans. This entry is for Boekind in general, NOT the face of boe, he has his own entry. I think the "conclusion" that all boekind are the same as face of boe is false, he is simply an exception to the rule. We have already encountered 2 other boekinds, 3 if you include Cpt. Jack Harkness, with John Hart and Gray. both of them were humanoid in appearance, same as Cpt. Jack Harkness. --68.90.225.31 00:56, 1 April 2009 (UTC)IkeRay

The edits are based on a presumption rather than any demonstrated facts. It is an assumption that John Hart is from the same place as Jack. It is never stated one way or the other. The edits have been rolled back because they are based on an assumption that Jack is the Face of Boe. Where does the information come from that at the turn of the 51st century Boekind were humanoid? --Tangerineduel 17:02, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

The fact of the humanoid AND invasion of the Boekind were in multiple Torchwood Episodes from series/season 2. AdamExit Wounds and Jack mentions it once or twice in DW episodes, but can't pin point them right now. Also, the "assumption" that Jack IS the Face of Boe has been acknowledged and verified by Russell T Davies, Julie Gardner, and actor John Barrowman.

Producer Julie Gardner, however, has been more assertive in this regard, most recently stating outright at the 2008 San Diego Comic Con that the Face of Boe is Jack Harkness. Similarly, the Torchwood Declassified featurette from Torchwood Series 2 has John Barrowman, David Tennant and Russell T Davies explictly stating that the Face of Boe is Jack Harkness.

Since the writers, producers, and actors have all agreed that Jack is Face of Boe, why can it not be written in the wiki? I personally don't catch the Torchwood Declassified or Dr. Who Declassified airings, being from the US, but it has been quoted multiple times on multiple websites, including this very wiki click on Behind the Scenes. where does the information come that the Face of Boe is the FIRST of boekind, like it keeps getting changed to? How could he have been the first and have a mother and father? Jack describes in Last of the Time Lords that he is called Face of Boe simply by being the first to join the time agency from the Boeshane Peninsula.--IkeRay 17:53, 1 April 2009 (UTC)IkeRay
