He probably already got paid for it, so it’s probably no big deal to him. But I am glad people are speaking out about it and not in a “lol what a joke, hahaha” type of way

Hope he saves that paycheck because this means he's radioactive for Brit TV and entertainment for the foreseeable future. This isn't just Who. It's variety shows, game shows, plays, panto, you name it. The best he can do now he pray this doesn't lead to a lawsuit or worse, an arrest for something and then, maybe, just maybe, he can earn some money writing a new memoir about this chapter of his life, since he can't work as a performer.

Oh I think it will be a big deal to him still, he’s been campaigning for years to bring Torchwood back, plus all of his campaigning to bring Captain Jack back to DW as well, he will definitely be pretty pissed and upset at this.

I remember Eve telling that story of him putting his dick on her like it was funny and just what he did.

Just good old casual sexual assault. That’s so horrible

Eve was the real star of Torchwood anyway.

ik people hate Gwen and honestly I'm not a big fan myself, but Eve is so naturally funny, weird and charming I hope she somehow gets a career boost out of this whole situation.

How will they include torchwood without him?

Disappointing all around

Torchwood has existed way before him, so i guess they could include Victorian Torchwood.

Captain Jack and just Barrowman in general were everything to me as an early to late teenager - I own two of his autobiographies I now shudder to revisit. I got so excited when he turned up on Doctor Who again.

Just to show "art before the artist" types how simple it is:

He can get fuckt.

Bring back Eccleston as Jack in a truly confusing and unsettling turn of events (but only if Eccleston ever feels comfortable returning).

He’s a bit of a pervy trench coat flasher.
