Actually Captain Jack Harkness is SO important. During a time when we couldn't get a single queer on screen in most shows and even those few we did get ended up dead 90% of the time, he was not only openly bisexual, he was openly bisexual and LITERALLY unable to die.
They buried that gay and he still dug himself up and kept fucking
Wait I’ve never watched doctor who I thought this was a porno.
it’s a kids show

I love the spectrum and diversity of queer experiences shown by New Who’s three (canonically) queer companions, some of which is very grounded and some of which leans into the possibilities of the sci-fi genre.
Yaz is seemingly realizing her queerness at 25(?), and is maybe struggling with it. We know that she experienced severe bullying in school and struggled with mental health and identity issues because of it. It’s possible that this was related in part to her queerness, even if she wasn’t open about that to her self.
Bill isn’t out to her (probably homophobic, at least very heteronormative) foster mother, but she seems totally happy being out to everyone else. She mentions liking girls at least once an episode and hops about the universe being her gay self. She does face some homophobia, but also she becomes a transcendent space lesbian, so yay.
Jack seems to be living the sci-fi dream of a post-homophobia future where his omnisexuality is par for the course and a non-issue (as far as I know. I haven’t seen Torchwood; maybe it’s explored more).
These three also have different backgrounds and identities that intersect with their queer identities and will of course influence their experiences as well.
I love that Doctor Who provides the space and worlds possible to explore these queer narratives, providing something to relate to for many different queer people.
That other part of the dream was that we noticed that the Master hasn’t showed up for a long time in doctor who. So Captain Jack Harkness and a few other made a drag performance to lure the master out.
The ryhms were really good. But I forgot them all
Apparently a graphic novel centered around Jack is being pulled now. This is absolutely fucking ridiculous. John wasn’t even connected to the project! God not to sound like a fucking conspiracy theorist but I feel like the “scandal” surrounding John—which has been public knowledge for over a decade and has been dealt with over a decade ago—is very purposefully being used to push aside the very recently exposed and actually very serious scandal surrounding Noel Clarke. It makes me fucking furious and sick
Doctor Who 2021 Event would have tied in "directly with episode two of the hotly-anticipated series 13."
It sounds like they’re pulling him from the episode/recutting it and trying to remove anything connected to original story.
Um...god ducking damn it
Yeah! Exactly! So what, s13 has to be completely rewritten? A beloved and historically influential queer character has to be erased? For what???
Idk, what John did wasn’t right, yeah we got that. But John is running around with his butt out since years onhis official Facebook. Or checking his fans dicks out under their kilt.
If BBc has a problem with that they should have cancelled him years ago. And now they pull every project connected to him?! After he did something that was not okay, but something that can definitely set right again with a few apologies and better future behavior
While Noel is not mentioned at all, and did way worse stuff
Sorry but that sounds like a witch hunt. I am not okay with what John did, but I stand with John. Sorry, not sorry
Doctor who: has a pansexual alien getting undressed by a laser beam
Loki Disney+: has a pansexual alien getting undressed by a laser beam
I didn’t knew that JB was kicked out of shows for his set behavior in doctor who
Yeah is behavior was not appropriate but everyone acting surprised and suddenly canceling him are over reacting imo. JB always showed that behavior openly on his IG and Facebook. Bum out, checking others people penises... are people not paying attention?!
If you do not like his behavior people should have cancelled him years ago. Idk for me it feels like riding a wave
That doesn’t mean I agree with his behavior I just disagree with people’s reaction
The Saga of Captain Jack Harkness smuggling things up his arse continues
John Barrowman dying his hair? Is jack back?!
CAPTAIN JACK HARKNESS IS NOT JACK HARKNESS REAL NAME WOT???

less than an hour into the “sugar and gravel only diet” intervention
Jack steps into the brand new TARDIS for the first time carrying a box of custard creams from an intergalactic trade caravan in the Andromeda Galaxy. Sheffield had been put under quarantine due to a plague outbreak and the Doctor was in desperate need of custard creams, according to her companions who’d sounded terrified when they’d rung him up that day. The entire ship is pitch black minus the crystalline pillars surrounding the console that glows an eerie purple color. “Uh, Doc?” he called, heading towards the light source. “You there? I brought you the-” A hand grabs his arm and drags him to what seems to be a hall as a voice shushes him. How rude. “Hey!”
“Sshh! You’re going to wake her up,” the girl from last time hissed.
“What? What the fuck is going on?” Jack asked, earning a sharp stare.
“Look,” she whispered, “the Doctor’s been acting…weird to say the least. You’re lucky she’s asleep right now or…” A low, growling sound echoed throughout the ship, cutting her off. “Shit!” Jack turned back to the console where a pair of glowing eyes was staring at him. “Now you woke her up.”
“That’s the Doctor?” He squinted, trying to get a good look at her. “Is she fucking possessed or something?” He stepped closer. “Listen up, you little shit. I don’t appreciate you-”

Jack paused. “Wait a minute…” The alien didn’t even bother to say hi to him. So that must mean… “Doctor?! Long time no see! How’s it been?” He went up to kiss her but instead got punched in the stomach, causing him to drop the box of biscuits and double over in pain. “Love you too, Doc,” he wheezed.
