Doctor Who star John Barrowman says holiday special is 'f--- ing epic'

But the actor sounds particularly jazzed about his return as adventurer Captain Jack Harkness in the time travel show's upcoming holiday special, "Revolution of the Daleks," which once again stars Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor.

It’s like going back and paying homage to the Jack and the Doctor stuff of the past, but bringing it in to the present.

It’s just an epic episode.

Below, Barrowman talks more about the holiday special, the future of Captain Jack, and the hair care regime of Chris Noth.

It’s something that Jack has explained to other companions that he's been with, and even people in Torchwood, about why we’re here, why we’re doing it, and what you should expect.

What I love about it is not only is the episode mimicking what is happening now — the Doctor is separated from the family as we are all separated from our families — but it’s also helping with Yaz’s mental healthy.

Will we be seeing any of that between the Captain and the Doctor.

Let’s just say, Jack is Jack and Chris Chibnall (Doctor Who showrunner) knows Jack really well.

But the haircare — let’s just say there was a lot of product.

Will be seeing more of Captain Jack after this episode.

It still means the same thing for me as the young boy who grew up watching the show and seeing Pertwee’s TARDIS and seeing Baker’s TARDIS and continuing on down the line.

Being someone from the LGBTQ+ community, I know  — and I mean this in a positive way — the Doctor accepts people who feel they are different, misfits, whatever.

However you define yourself, the Doctor accepts you and doesn’t care.
