To boldly go where no SF television show has gone before

Last night sophiaserpentia and I watched episode 12 of Torchwood. The episode aptly titled "Jack Harkness". Yeah, that episode (for those of you in the know.) Wow, what a fabulous episode - great story line, intriguing unresolved plot detail, and OMG! OMG! OMG!



Men kissing! Gorgeous men! And not just a quick little peck, I mean really kissing, and it wasn't gratuitous either, it was integral to the plot. And of course Jack still has Ianto back at home for ongoing fooling around so it's not just a one-time fluke for him. Kudos to BBC-America for being willing to air this show! (Despite their silly censoring for language. I mean, who gives a *bleep!* about an occasional swear word. :-) )

Jack and Ianto? Huh? Did I miss an episode? 'Coz last I knew, Ianto was still mourning over his dead borg girlfriend Lisa. Not that he can't be bi, but I don't remember an episode with Jack and him. . . . ?

It was just a sentence or two at the end of one of the episodes (I don't remember which one) which strongly implied Jack and Ianto are more than just friends. It was a funny exchange too, alluding to them doing something kinky involving a timer. I'm guessing there's probably lots of fanfic devoted to that! And the Jack/Ianto pairing was reinforced in this most recent episode: while Owen and Ianto are fighting over whether to use the Rift machine, Owen makes some snide remark about Ianto and Jack's relationship.
