Boy: Who’s Ianto?
Boy’s mother: He was a brave, brave man who gave his life to save us all.
Boy: Like Jesus?
Boy’s mother: Yes, like Jesus.
I’m sorry but Ianto and Jack’s kiss across the desk is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, they’re so in l o v e I can’t even comprehend the amount of love in that kiss
The story is that the crew let them go at it for a while before calling cut. I’d just about give my right arm for that footage to emerge one day. I’m pretty sure it would break Tumblr.
Actually the story I’ve heard the most is John asked the crew to keep rolling. Poor Gareth had no idea and only realized after they continued to kiss for a longggg time.
……
I need that footage I will bREAK SOMETHING if I don’t get that footage!!!!I have scoured the internet from top to bottom and have not been able to find it…yet.
I think the footage exists somewhere in RTD and JB’s personal files, and they watch it from time to time.
But this is the next best thing, Gareth explaining it in detail:https://www.tumblr.com/video_file/147614700595/tumblr_oaj92cL9AR1v5wdkx/480
… OK, two things are are now officially official:
1.) I would absolutely die (y/k, at least of a heart attack or smth) if I ever did get to see that TWO AND A HALF MINUTE TAKE (LIKE HOLY ************* CRAP)
&
2.) Gareth totally lied to the Official TW Magazine when he said that the kiss was super-easy / not awkward at all because they were both perfectly aware of each other’s respective sexualities & completely respected them. GARETH EITHER WASN’T COMPLETELY AWARE ABOUT EVERYTHING CONCERNING HIMSELF OR JOHN TOTALLY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF HIS GREAT DEDICATION TO THE JOB
Jack marched Rhys across to the water tower. ‘I’m taking you the flashy way’, he said.
‘Your flying lift thing?’, asked Rhys.
‘Yup.’
‘Lovely.’ Rhys eyed the giant silver fountain. ‘And that never fails to impress, does it?’
‘Nope.’
[They descend.]
‘Thing is, the Missus has already shown me it, mate.’
‘Ah’, said Jack.
They started to sink out of view of an unconcerned Bay.
‘Actually’, admitted Rhys’s voice from the void, ‘It’s still bloody impressive. Does it just have the one speed?’
There was the tiniest of pauses. And a click.
‘Wheeeeeee!’
