Yet another reason I'm glad I don't live on your little island. The television character remains unsullied by any extracurricular activities the actor may engage in.
The only other stuff I know him for is showtunes.
Is that not enough?

I like showtunes.
So do I, just not ones performed by John Barrowman.

His voice is crisp and his diction clean. I don't think his singing has a lot of personality, but he doesn't make a grotesquerie of it. I'd say he's a competent triple threat.

Also, he's hot.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

I don't think I've ever seen that emoticon before. It looks like a cancer patient that bit into a thermonuclear pie.

I very much approve of this thread. Carry on! :mrgreen:

Haven't seen Waters of Mars yet, hoping it's better than Planet of the Dead. What a waste of an episode that was. Oh yes, I'm still afraid of the new Doctor's ghoulish face.

Much better than Planet of the Dead--which would've been an OK episode had it not been a special.

For you Barrowman lovers:

He's alright, a tad irritating outside of the show, but his Dr. Who character was brilliant. Haven't gotten into Torchwood yet.
