Doctor Who's Jack Harkness and River Song will meet in spin-off - digitalspy.com

Iconic Doctor Who characters Captain Jack Harkness and River Song are set to (finally) meet for the first time thanks to an audio series from Big Finish.

The Lives of Captain Jack volume three will see John Barrowman and Alex Kingston reprise their characters for three new adventures.

Yep, Captain Jack and River will cross paths for the first time, and they will be joined along the way by Jackie Tyler (Camille Coduri) too.

Big Finish

The new series will be released in March, consisting of episodes 'Crush', 'Mighty & Despair' and 'R&J'.

"Alex Kingston and I have talked about this for years," Barrowman said. "We knew that the fanbase always wanted River and Jack to meet, or to cross timelines, and we just never knew when it would happen. Alex and I were always game for it and, thanks to Big Finish, this is where it's happening.

"It's like Jack is the male River and River is the female Jack. There are all sorts of comparisons in their behaviours and how they react; the verve and vivacious passion they have for solving problems; getting to the heart of the action and adventure; the determination to get what they want, but also the sadness behind both of their eyes."

Kingston added: "I've always imagined that, when River's not on adventures with the Doctor, she's somewhere having fun with Captain Jack. I've always had that at the back of my head.

"John Barrowman and I get on so well, and whenever we've met at conventions, it's the one request that the fans have come up with more than any other. We have a lot of fun together so it's something we've both been pushing independently for. I was so thrilled to find out that our dream has come true."

We are too.
