He talks about playing an "omnisexual" and is open about being gay himself: "I'm gay. I still love women - they're extremely sexy. Who's to say I'll never have sex with a woman.
听
"I believe you're born that way [gay] - it's not something you choose... Why would you choose to be in a minority that's looked down on by some parts of society?"
听
He also talks about his pending marriage to long-term partner Scott: "We're looking at dates towards Christmas and we'll do it in Cardiff. a small family dinner."
听
He also talks about Doctor Who, memories from childhood and growing up in Glasgow before he moved to America.
听
"I know about being afraid of the Daleks," he says.
听
And he tells how, as a child, he saw an episode of Doctor Who in which the shop dummies came alive and was then afraid to go past shop windows without hiding under his mother's coat.
听 "I collect action figures. I have my own now - that's the only reason I wanted to do Doctor Who!"
听
He talks about his experience of Torchwood: "For some reason, the British public took to him [Jack]. We just finished filming on Saturday.
听
"In Torchwood, everyone has a secret (but) I've signed a secrecy clause... why would I want to spoil it for anyone?"
听
On filming in Cardiff, he says: "On Friday nights there are lots of scary monsters, blonde tight-tops who fight the seagulls trying to eat their chips. It's a great night out, watching the boob-tops!"
听
Jonathan also welcomes to the show double Academy Award-winning actress Emma Thompson, about to return to the big screen in Stranger than Fiction.

She talks about getting older and her new glamorous image: "I'm more comfortable with being female now. I used to think I shouldn't wear make-up.
听
"I've had to learn how to walk in high heels. I have to shave my legs otherwise I'd look like a chimp .. and (now) I confess to loving a Brazilian!"
