Out gay actor John Barrowman has caused outrage by talking dirty in an interview with Doctor Who magazine.
The Torchwood star, who played bisexual Captain Jack Harkness in the sci-fi spin-off, shocked some fans by making explicit sexual references.
The actor revealed in the interview that his genitalia are too big for purpose, talked about fancying co-stars Christopher Eccleston AND David Tennant AND one of the directors.
Barrowman had a civil partnership ceremony last year with long-term partner Scott Gill.
He won Stonewall Entertainer of the Year in 2006.
Clayton Hickman, editor of Doctor Who magazine, apologised from printing Barrowman's smutty comments:
"We consider the magazine for older readers, but some of this content may have overstepped the mark."

Please..the man is who he and we love him for it. If there is any finger pointing to be done, point it at Doctor Who Magazine, they should and ONLY they should be held accountable for what they publish in their magazine.

Completely agree! Don't ask a gay guy who he fancies and expect him not to reply back with a mans name! I hope John NEVER changes!

If it had been Billie Piper commenting on who she fancied among her co-workers and how large her breasts were would there have been such an out cry. Where is the equality of speech/behavior. If this magazine is aimed at children, then surely this about an editor asleep on the job and not Mr Barrowman being his outrageous self.
