This is a tweenie of the 21st century, that little bit elicited a 
"Cool!" from her, but no fear. As far as the other goes, my husband and 
I prefer for religious reasons that she not be exposed to what you are 
calling 'mild' behavior...the few scenes I've seen of that on Torchwood
yeah, way past 'mild' IMO. ;-)

Someone on the Facebook page said there WILL be more sexuality in 
upcoming episodes, so tweenie is going to be disappointed that she can't
watch any more. BUT there's always Doctor Who! ;-)
