Consider: Since he has attained immortality, he has been on Earth a long time. How did he get there? How did he get back from the future Earth? Perhaps the Doctor and Martha pick him up shortly after the events of the Dalek war. He is, as yet, unaware he is immortal and therefore the same old Captain Jack we used to know. He travels with them for a time, perhaps gets left behind in Earth's history, perhaps he leaves pursuing the secret of his missing memories. It neatly gets him out of the sad, dull, immortal Torchwood-Jack mentality and requires no convoluted Torchwood crossovers for <i>Doctor Who</i>. It also would not cause problems for the possibility of Torchwood either being renewed or not.

I'm counting on the second series being when it gets good. Be interesting to see if the reunion with the Doctor does give Jack any of his former conman twinkle back.
