Captain Jack and Angel. The Problem With Immortal Heros
I would wonder round while Angel was on, considering this topic in my head. Now it is something that has turned up in Torchwood (and, with crossovers, Dr Who) by Captain Jack. Your hero is immortal, but your actor isn't. Does your hero age? Will with a vampire, no, but Angel, or DB changed a lot from Season One of Buffy to Season Five of Angel. Then we fans loved him, and turned a blind eye to his changes.

Ok Ok we may comment a bit on them, but more a kind of affectionate ribbing about any changes.

It was nothing big, maybe he got a little chunkier, but his hair wasn't falling out, no noticeable wrinkles, all his own teeth, and no grey hairs. So we bought into it. Some of the changes were not that gradual, but he was still Angel.

What about Captain Jack? He asks if he will age in the last episode of Dr Who season 3. On the one hand, if he can age, then Torchwood has a longer run time, but if he can age, but cannot die? Does anyone want to live forever as an old person, with all the problems of old age?

Then Captain John asks him what keeps him coming back? So can he choose at anytime after dying not to come back? Is it his ties to the Torchwood team, the Doctor, his mission that keeps him coming back?

In The Dark
"How can I thank you, you mysterius black-clad hunk of a night thing? No need little lady. Your tears of gratitude are enough for me... "But...There must be some way to show my appreciation..." "No, helping those in need's my job. And working up a load of sexual tension, and prancing away is truly thanks enough" "I understand...I have a nephew who is gay, so..." "Say no more! Evil is still afoot, and I am almost out of that nancy-boy hair gel I like so much! Quickly! To the Angelmoble! Away!" Spike on Angel
