base security?

he's the one that stays behind and looks after things

and it would explain why it were easy to hide stuff, if it's his job to see to what gets in there.


(as pointed out in passing in a post I otherwise entirely disagree with, Jack did ask Ianto to reverse the lockdown in 1-08, not any of the others)


Tosh jobs include translation programs, computers, and enough forensics or medecine to be useful around corpses and at the hospital. Maybe more lab equipment than actual people, that would group her skills closer together. Only Owen qualified to work on the living.

Owen = medicine doctor, and don't he let people know it. Anyone leaves off his title he adds it.

Tosh is also entitled, but don't do that.

Gwen = police, mostly walking around, bit of victim support according to the website.

Jack is the boss of everyone. Also knows more alien tech than the rest. And can pilot a spaceship. And knows the future a bit. And knows too much history, mostly when mentioning WWII.


Gwen and Owen have fairly narrow focus and well defined skills, Tosh and Ianto are a bit more generalist but in different ways, and Jack knows everything as convenient (Greek mythology? Because that comes up so often! Mind you, educated white guy for the last few thousand years has a certain expected cultural base. Can see it being useful to know, and also being available to read when the reading was skinny.) Or possibly Jack's clever wrist computer does and tells his head. You never know.

Didn't Jack on Who say that he'd ran a con or two in Pompeii? It would make sense that he'd pick up a bit of Greek and Roman mythology there.

Plus, Philoctetes is partly out of the Iliad - and Jack is rather tied to warfare, so it would make a little sense that he would know bits of that.
