Episode Three of Torchwood: Miracle Day (spoiler~free review HERE) aired in the US last night and it included a scene that has been cut from the BBC version (airing next week) due its sexual nature. In the player below you can watch the scene featuring heterosexual and homosexual intercourse.
PLEASE NOTE:
It is slightly spoilery, not to mention sexy, in nature.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
This is what the BBC have cut? They've shown a hell of a lot more explicit stuff before now.
Maybe this is because it's a children's hero, Captain Jack, in the scene? I'm guessing so.
I'm glad it's nothing too substantial or vital that's been cut, anyway.
Any ideas of added scenes to the bbc version to replace the time of this cut?
There is nothing added in the BBC version.
This doesn't work on internet explorer…
Was that it? WTF there was more explicit stuff in The Crimson Petal and The White including full frontal nudity (Chris O'Dowd) and more than a suggestion of anal sex with prostitutes!! Got to say these scenes look rather hot and thanks for posting!!
Bah! Children's hero? Since when was Captain Jack a *children's* hero?
@ausmerican
Obviously since he was in Doctor Who and returned and has been much-loved and popular among kids in general.
It's so silly. As has been said, the BBC show way worse things than that all the time! I'm assuming it has a whole story behind it as well so it's not pointless exposure. Oh well. #disappointment.
finds it hilarious that my country was founded with certain freedoms in mind and as time has passed (200+ yrs) we seem to have become incredibly PRUDE. Then Torchwood comes along and the UK cuts that scene. My brain hurts!
p.s. – that was HOT
It's been edited, not cut out completely!
An email from the BBC, and i quote:
It is not unusual for co-productions to have slightly different versions of a show to reflect the different audiences. For episode three of ‘Torchwood: Miracle Day’, as part of the usual discussions between broadcasters and the production company, small potential edits in two intercutting scenes of gay and straight sex were discussed and made by production. This minimal edit makes little difference to the episode to be broadcast in the UK. Both scenes remain but run a few seconds shorter than the US version. In a later episode a sequence of gay sex is important to the story and therefore both the US and UK will show the same version.

The preview version of the BBC edit does not feature the scene I have included here.
That, of course, may change in the final broadcast version.
So yea…they actually cut it completely for the UK. Bloomin' BBC.
Is it the full version that's going to be released on DVD / Blu-Ray??
