Torchwood


John Barrowman, now Malcolm on Arrow, was Captain Jack Harkness in the series.

He's very good, I think, in both roles.

While all our regular stuff is on holiday break, the wife and I have been doing mini-marathons using Comcast on Demand.

Torchwood, starting with episodes from season 1, has been part of this.

Fun show.

Bit stronger than it needs to be, for general (as opposed to cult) audiences, on the gay thing.

Bit polymorphous perverse, as one might say.


Sayeth Wikipedia,

On November 30, 2008, Barrowman was asked during Radio 1's Switch programme about his habit of exposing himself during interviews, and did so on this occasion.

Although the act was not seen (a show staff member had covered the webcam), the BBC and Barrowman subsequently apologised for any offence caused.

Who says gays are perverts?

Hey, nobody would say that, right?

That might offend someone.

Ever seen photos of a gay pride day?

Not a whole lot of people those festivals of obscene perversity don't offend, very deeply, indeed.

As for this particular gay, Barrowman, the sites you find if you look up Arrow are burying the guy.

You might find his picture but not his name.

If you look him up you can find references to Arrow.

What do you think of that?
