I am a massive John Barrowman fan. First saw him in the West End playing opposite Elaine Page in ANYTHING GOES and then in MISS SAIGON and finally in SUNSET BOULEVARD.
He is a fantastic actor with a tremendous emotional singing voice.
I think the BBC are lucky to have such a talent and I enjoy his Doctor Who role as Captain Jack because it has humour in it which helps the plotline. He worked really well with Billie Piper in Doctor Who as well - they had a good chemistry.
I have been lukewarm to his part in Torchwood up until now - but the first two episodes this series are the equal of anything in Doctor Who.

I was put off Torchwood by the BBC's total overkill on John Barrowman. I got so sick of not being able to turn on any programme, even cookery shows, without seeing him. I just hope he doesn't return to Dr Who.
Nothing really against the man. I'm sure he's got some degree of talent. I just got fed up of seeing him.

I think it's brilliant but then I do consider Russell T Davies to be God!

Anyone see the picture on the DAILY MAIL site with the massive lightening strike coming down on the MI5 building last night ? Spooky or what !!!! Watch tonight's episode and you will see the similarities !!!
Its popularity is due to its subject matter - more people than ever are seemingly seeing UFOs and having strange experiences......it is also being watched at the same level as Eastenders on the I PLAYER each day.....
Counting down to 9p.m !!
