If they think Doctor Who has "gone" woke, they have not been watching.

I remember Captain Jack Harkness flirting with anything that moves, regardless of gender identity or species.

Unfortunately his behavior continued on set. Creepy dude.

But his character wasn't meant to be creepy, and I need to remember that from time to time.

My opinions: Was he called out for exposing himself and being incredibly inappropriate? Yes.

Has he apologized and faced consequences? Yes, multiple times, but maybe not enough for some.

Is he a sexual predator? Probably Not.
