Howling:Could Jilly Kitzinger be immortal?

At the end of Torchwood: Miracle Day we discovered Rex was immortal. While I have my own theory on how this happened, which I've probably posted on some discussion somewhere, I've been looking at other theories that the Blessing was giving Rex immortality as a gift. Now we saw Jilly running from the warehouse, and seemingly caught up in the explosion. Jack and Gwen never saw her leave the wreckage, so unless she was just unconcious she was pretty much presumed dead. Could it be that she was caught up and blasted by the explosion, but was near enough the Blessing for it to reheal her? It's not a possibility easily ruled out because we saw her alive and well the next day.

And while on the subject of gifted immortality, what about Esther? While I hope it isn't the case, she was certainly near enough to the Blessing. Could Torchwood just have faked the funeral so they could have an agent who everyone presumed dead? Is it possible that if Rex got immortality, everyone who died while the miracle was switching in the immediate vicinity of the Blessing was brought back to life? I doubt it but I'm just interested in other people's theories. 94.72.209.160talk to me 13:32, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

it was stated that the reason that rex became immortal as well was because of jack's blood in him. and was it said that the thing with jilly was the next day? also, she might have been far enough away from the explosion that it didn't affect her too badly. i haven't seen the episode for a few months now but i don't believe there is any much reason to believe that anyone other that rex (and jack obviously) were made immortal.

I don't know who "stated" that it was Jack's blood. The only clue we got was Jane Espenson tweeting that the Blessing gave Rex immortality. But this is too vague. It hardly rules out anything, and doesn't really support anything, either. Now I think about it Jilly said she had been coming to the bench for a few days. But I was surprised how completely unscathed she looked. All this is pure speculation. We can't rule out any theories, but we can support them. 94.72.209.160talk to me 14:08, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

No disrespect to Imamadmad but it certainly wasn't stated in the show that Rex became immortal because of Jack's blood. There wasn't time for anything much to be stated after the characters found out. Each of the three main characters said, "What?" and then Rex asked Jack, "Hey, World War Two, what the hell have you done to me?" and that was that. Rex is assuming his immortality is something to do with Jack. That's a pretty reasonable assumption but he doesn't actually know and he definitely doesn't know how it happened. Besides, even if a character had said that Rex became immortal because he had Jack's blood in him, that wouldn't necessarily mean it was true; a character theorising or guessing isn't enough to establish the theory or guess as actual fact. --89.241.72.64talk to me 19:32, December 30, 2011 (UTC)
