That thing? In the episode?

So, I've been venting to natlyn for the last half hour about the utter impossibility of remaining sane after being buried alive for 1,874 years. So the only fix I can think of will now become my personal canon.

My personal canon? The Doctor finds out about Jack being buried alive: unburies him a week or so after he's buried, they adventure around space and time for a bit, and then reburies him in time for the 1901 Torchwood to dig him up, thus preserving the timeline.

He totally would. Unless Jack *wanted* to be buried.

I'm thinking that even Jack doesn't hate himself that much. And honestly? Even if he did, would the Doctor really let him suffer like that? For that long?

Of course not. As soon as he found out, he was down there with his shirtsleeves rolled up and a spade in hand.
