The First Cut is the Deepest...

Oct 05, 2007 20:57

The CBC started airing Torchwood tonight. We have more ads on this side of the pond so the show had to be cut for time. Wanna guess what they cut?

Owen's boy kiss.

Granted, it was a non-essential part of the plot -- in all fairness, possibly the only non-essential chunk of time available for editing out -- and, because the girl is now not waiting ( Read more... )

Just don't start "running" with Jack OK? -- I don't think it would be good for your form.

Running after Jack maybe... ;)

Did they also cut Jack's mpreg comment? I don't remember seeing it.

You know, I don't remember seeing either. I wish I'd taped it now.

Damn. I thought that was a pretty important character moment.

Well, it certainly established Owne's moral line in the sand but since it didn't impact the plot it was the easiest cut.

That sucks. I thought the boy kiss was one of the best parts of the episode. *g*

I'm all for boy-kissing! *g*

While I totally agree about Owen's bisexuality (him and apparently everyone else in Wales ;) problem was, cutting the whole scene was easy but cutting the same amount of time a few seconds here, a few seconds there would have been an expensive pain in the ass. I've missed the last couple of weeks (and, obviously, your comment or I would have answered sooner *g*) so I don't know if they kept the girl kissing in or not.
