Does anyone know if JB and GDL played these scenes as if Jack and Ianto were already involved in some way? It does strike me that Jack’s anger can come across as very, very personal. I’d really love to know if the writers told them anything, or if the actors just assumed some things from their own personal chemistry and went from there. It’s hugely effective. I know a lot of people find the episode campy, but the first time I watched it, it scared the hell out of me. Now it makes me desperately sad for them all.
