I am so with you on this. I love the FoB thing so much. The WHoniverse completely sets up sacrifice of one's life for others as heroism: we get it with Harriet Jones, with Adelaide, with a million one episode characters. And the two people who are the ostensible heroes of the shows -- the Doctor and Jack -- are, by definition, barred from the type of heroism the show endorses. That we find out Jack gets it in the end and that we should have had faith in that all along, because the information was already there, is just stunning.
