A gay sex scene on BBC's Torchwood between actor John Barrowman and another man received 500 viewer complaints amid 3.4 million viewers. The episode aired last week in the U.K. — the scene was a flashback featuring Barrowman's "omnisexual" character Captain Jack Harkness in bed with an Italian immigrant in 1927. The show, which airs at 9 p.m. in Britain, has included repeated gay romance story lines. But this scene, reportedly at seven minutes, drew attention for lasting longer than others and being more explicit.
The BBC released a statement saying, “We aim to depict sexual relationships in an honest and realistic way. These scenes are not meant to cause offense.”
Check out the Clip from Torchwood that got everybody in a tizzy. I have see more wood from the "Bachelor" with two girls in a hot tub. Good for the BBC for not caving in to the bigots.
