This is great, I love Jack and will be sorry to see him go. I presume they will kill him off and then it gives cause for the past characters to come back for the fiftieth anniversary.

Gee, Jack didn't look all that bad disguised as a woman! Wonders never cease on the Cobbles!
ReplyDeleteEee, I remember Dulcie Froggatt! She was Jack's "bit of spare" in the mid-1980s. She also bedded Terry! What a hussy! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't remember Dulcie Froggatt, more's the pity! I will really miss Jack. Another of the old guard, gone.
