Papa Don't Preach is a Torchwood constructed reality Mpreg crack vid by Eunice and Greensilver. It imagines Captain Jack Harkness as a teenage girl who was knocked up by The Master and plans to marry Ianto. The apostrophized "Papa" is The Doctor. The vid uses footage from both Torchwood and Doctor Who. It was very positively received by the fandom, and is often praised for it clever use of the song lyrics, the choice of canon images, and use of manips, to tell a very different story.
It has been mentioned in an academic paper, "Veni, Vidi, Vids!" audiences, gender and community in Fan Vidding, as an example of vidding and gender. It has also featured at several panels and events at Vividcon over the years.
