If I had to guess at tomorrow's play...

I'd say it probably involves some revelation about Jack knowing that Ianto's going to die. This may or may not take the form of some random fandom dig, again. That's just my speculation.

I haven't heard the last one yet, to be fair, I'm waiting for a spare 45 mins. Which will shortly become a spare hour and a half and then two fifteen. Damn children.

BTW, If you've heard stuff by the time you read this, feel free (in other words PLEASE) to spoil me in the comments, I'd kind of like to know the reeling Ianto revelations before I listen, I'm not in the mood for new IantoCanon if it's going to be Debenhams-style ShitCanon and I will happily just ignore it.

Basically, Ianto had another girlfriend, or maybe she had a crush on him, or whatever, from Torchwood 1.
Ianto tells her he loves Jack. Says Jack will one day leave him.
FORESHADOWING ANVIL OF DOOM about Ianto's eventual dying in CoE and Jack becoming mortal/dying in MD. (at least that's how I saw it)

I think you saw it pretty right there.

I liked this one better than yesterday's play. But then, this had more Ianto in it! And a slightly better resolution.

Nothing major revealed about Ianto (except that he had an old flame before Lisa that he maybe dumped specifically for Lisa). That little nugget is being saved for tomorrow...yeah, not looking forward to that either. I may need to take a sick day to recover from all of the "reeling" I'm apparently going to be doing. ;)

OK, the rest of this is basically spoilers...

Yes, the last part was a perfect setup for some major fresh Jack angst/dilemmas due to new-found mortality in MD.

They (through Jack) also established again that there is NOTHING out there for you after you die (but by then, Jack was trying to piss off the baddie).

Apparently, everyone dies in Torchwood 1, but everyone lives in Torchwood 3! ?!? OK, Gwen, like T3's track record is SO MUCH BETTER by comparison.

We finally get the perfect opportunity for Jack to show a little jealousy, and all he does is feel up Ianto. We also get another 'does Jack care about Gwen more?' moment, so they're keeping that alive. (Guess that's also a setup for MD since Jack and Gwen are supposed to have a talk.)

And I'd like to know who Jack thinks is just going to take care of aliens once they cross into England?? Which makes no sense since he later says Torchwood has to go far away to explore this new case.

Oh, and we got another "sir" mention.

Maybe she's adopted RTD's point about who 'everyone' consists off.

Is "everyone" a weird category like how "the best" consists of "Pretty girls, their boyfriends, random aristocracy I want to shag, and occasionally someone's mother"?
