:::Really wish I had the time to check, but in the flashback scenes in series 1 & 2, those that pre-date 1940, did all of them have him in something other than the USAAF overcoat? | :::Really wish I had the time to check, but in the flashback scenes in series 1 & 2, those that pre-date 1940, did all of them have him in something other than the USAAF overcoat? | ||
::::He had a similarly long coat in ''Fragments'', but it wasn't the WWII coat. In ''Small Worlds'' he was wearing the same uniform as everyone else on the train. | ::::He had a similarly long coat in ''Fragments'', but it wasn't the WWII coat.

:::::Jack's coat is what we think of as a World War II era Royal Air Force greatcoat. However, the RAF existed before WWII (it was founded in 1918), and I think their greatcoats did, too. I found a portrait of Hugh Trenchard, RAF Marshal and "Father of the Royal Air Force," online (at http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/work.aspx?obj=16156 ) that is a COPY commissioned in 1959 of an ORIGINAL from 1930. Notice his coat in that portrait looks very similar to Jack's. So, if Trenchard had a coat like that in 1930, I wouldn't put it outside the realm of possibility for Jack to be wearing his greatcoat in 1927-1928. | |||
