[[Memetic Sex God|Captain Jack Harkness]] exhibits [[Extreme Omnisexual|rampant omnisexuality]] and a proclivity for flirting with anything that can say hi. He also kissed the Doctor before any of the other new companions did. In fact, his spinoff show, ''[[Torchwood]]'', is based entirely upon the premise that bisexual alien hunters are hot. Kinda strange that the Master just kept killing him over and over for a year (he also calls him "handsome" and keeps him chained up in the basement though), but then again, maybe the Master gets off on it -- he's tried to kill the Doctor often enough.

* Jack finally, properly, gets a sex scene in season 4 episode 3 of ''[[Torchwood]]''. It's '''utterly magnificent''' and bordering on softcore porn. From the moment he grabs Brad's face and pushes him to his knees, to the quite sudden role reversal and Jack getting pounded ''hard'' -- it's everything the fans had been wanting to see for years. And since he's not invincible that day (long story), he [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|insists on using condoms]].

** There is a [http://youtu.be/Ix6omvPYXWI cut scene] from "The Hungry Earth" where Eleven gets distracted wondering where Rory is, before stating almost dreamily that "I like him. A ''lot''." It's adorable and most definitely should have been left in.

** Can't forget the bit in "Amy's Choice" where the Dream Lord has just sent the three of them off to sleep in one world, and they wake up on a park bench... and the Doctor's head has fallen onto Rory's shoulder into a [[Headbutt of Love]]. They both kind of freak, and the [[Adorkable|adorkableness]] reaches near-fatal levels.

** During a scene in "Day of the Moon" when they've all faked their deaths to get into Area 51 and are taken into the Doctor's prison via bodybags, it's Rory who the Doctor goes for straight away and you can see him [[Anywhere but Their Lips|kissing his forehead]] to one side of the screen.

** Oh wow [[Butch Lesbian|Ace]]. She gets suspiciously chummy with a female guest cast member in almost every story. We really have to give special mentions to ''Ghost Light'' (in which she [[Bifauxnen|dresses up in Victorian male evening dress for no apparent reason]], and then has two separate [[Cat Fight|Cat Fights]]), and ''Survival'', in which the Les Yay between her and the Cheetah Person Karra is so shameless that when the author [[Word of Gay|complained]] that her [http://www.btinternet.com/~david.darlington/WORDS/RonaMunroInterview.htm intended lesbian innuendo had been censored] most viewers wondered what the hell could have been cut out that could possibly have been shown before the [[Watershed]].

** They hug constantly, they flirt, they banter like an old married couple, and of all the companion/Doctor relationships, they seem most like a dynamic duo rather than "the extraordinary Doctor and his amazed companion along for the ride". We may as well add that Jamie was the first Old Who companion to be name-dropped in the revived show: Ten used his name as an alias in "Tooth and Claw".
