A day, that's all, only one day, and in that day nearly everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. John Bloody Hart and his explosive devises were only the start, he then bombs the city and kidnaps Jack, leaving us to deal with hordes of weevils, the restarting of the major servers for most of the city as well as the meltdown of a nuclear energy plant. In one day the whole of Cardiff went to the dogs, but we fixed it, I suppose, in the process losing both Toshiko and Owen. In one day Gwen and my world crashed down around our years, but while it was only one day for us, for Jack it was almost two thousand years. Two thousand years of constant death and resurrection, only to find when he got back to the hub that he was down two of his team, his family, knowing all the while that it was his brother that was responsible for the whole thing. All in all, it was a day that they could have all done without.
