Torchwood and its many kisses

[rae_fa]

My dad has recently expressed a desire to watch 'Torchwood', so last night i provided him with the first three episodes.

It was only later that i realized that i had neglected to tell him that each of the main characters share a same sex kiss with different character at some point during the series. My bad. He's rather homophobic, so i wonder whether he'll get any further than the first episode.

My nine year old sister on the other hand had this conversation with me on the weekend regarding 'Torchwood':

Sister: Rae - can i watch the Jack and Ianto kiss? (You know that kiss)
Me: Why?
Sister: Because
Me: Because why?
Sister: Because!
Me: But Becky - it's two guys kissing
Sister: But it's romantic!

And then, when we were watching 'Greeks Bearing Gifts', (Episode 7 of 'Torchwood') and Toshiko was kissing Mary...the only comment my sister made was "They're kissing in public!" She gets all giggly about PDA as she's at that age. But the girl/girl kissing that took place? Didn't even strike her as odd. She's definitely a modern age kid. :o)

And why did no-one tell me that John Barrowman could really sing? I mean...i was told. But i wasn't told told.
