Very Important Jack Harkness Question

Okay. Look. In Doctor Who, two seasons ago, there was an episode with lots of parodies of British gameshows, including What Not To Wear, where Jack Harkness got his clothes beamed off by two very scary Trinny and Susannah robots.

So, my question: did they show his NAKED BUNS or NOT?

No. seriously. I have very nice HDTV download versions of every episode for that season, and I'm trolling it for interesting bits for my vid of doom and dorkiness, and Jack's naked buns are just not there. And I REMEMBER them being there when I watched the episode on the BBC.

Did they censor Doctor Who for the US market? Is it just my downloads that got censored? Or am I going nuts and did they never show Jack's rear at all?

HELP.

You've gone nuts. I have a copy of the original episode as it aired. No naked bums. RTD said they filmed it, but the Beeb made them cut it.

Dude. You mean I have the director's cut in my head? Damn.

Well, on the bright side, you have a very clear image of Captain Jack's arse in your mind. That can't be bad.

Looking forward to your vid.

Yeah, I'm thinking based on Doc Who's time slot vs Torchwood, Who wouldn't have.

*snfs* That's sounding hideously plausible. And YET.

On the Doctor Who Confidential, they showed a pixellated version of what they shot. Maybe that's what you saw?

Either way, Capt. Jack's ass in your head, not a bad thing. Have you seen Torchwood yet?

Nope, never seen any of the Doctor Who Confidentials. And my mind says they had a full-body rear nude shot of Jack after he'd been undressed by the 'bots! They DID! Except. Apparently not. Snf. But I like the delusion. *g*

I'm watching TW, yes! And I have promised myself I can watch your Jack vid after we're done. *G*

BTW, could I possibly obtain from you a Highlander clip or two for my dorky vid? Pleaaase?

It's a pretty deep vid, but you can probably pick up my point after seeing the show just once :)

You're welcome to grab clips from any of my posted HL vids, but the raw format I use has a codec that's unique to my capture card, and probably won't work for you, unfortunately.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for the offer of letting me take clips from your vids! (I promise I won't abuse it. :-)

I have a vague but strong almost-memory that yes, indeed, they did show it. So if they didn't, apparently they did a very good job of being suggestive.

Hee. At least I'm not the only one!
