I mean, I love Jack to pieces, but he was in no way the first male companion to be canonically crushing on the Doctor.
I've wondered for a while whether RTD or Stephan Moffat was a fan of the novels and cribbed a little of Fitz into Jack, to be honest, especially considering the swagger Jack had when he was introduced. (Not to mention the Gallifrey angst!)
