— Tom Hartnell’s looks rated: a thread

theiceandbones:

i sure hope you’re ready for this

10/10. Let’s start with some basic tartnell. He’s on the rigging, it’s icy as hell, he’s got Irving’s glass and he’s just told Tozer to put a fumb in it. What does he see? Not the haters, that’s for sure. 

3584247657/10. BE STILL MY BEATING HEART(nell). Is that a SMILE??? Tossing in a few extra points for Ikea Monkey looks. 

9/10. The cheeks, the hair, the popped collar, the beard. It’s all there. Docking a point bc Erebus sick bay :(

10/10. CHEEKS. He’s brought Silna some supper. He understands. He’s a good lad. We love one man.

20/10. Here we’ve got Tart doing what he does best: handling the dead! And being a good friend! What a helpful guy. Do we deserve him? Probably not! Constantly rocking those fingerless gloves. An absolute staple of every Arctic explorer’s wardrobe!

8/10. This is the only man north of the Arctic Circle to successfully pull off the welsh wig/table hat combo. And that snood? That’s a cozy Tart!! Points taken away for kidnapping Silna >:(

1000/10. The waistcoat. Need I say more. 

100000000067546/10. CIVILIAN CLOTHES. Another expert execution of the waistcoat, the collar, the stock, and the trousers? PERFECT. PERFECTION. ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING. 

10/10. Again with the Welsh wig, is there anything this man can’t do? “Did you always want to be a caulker?” Absoluely SICK burn. His wig may be on, but Corn’s is fucking snatched. 

9/10. CARNIVALE. He’s a lion!!! He’s a fucking lion!!! STUNNING symbolism in that one. One point docked for Bad Things Happening but his kitty costume is 10/10 in my heart. 

10000/10. Oh man. Oh boy. Here we go. He’s got the cozy sweater and everything AND he’s about to sympathetically headbonk Goodsir. We do not deserve Thomas Hartnell. 

875656748684/10. I don’t think I can stress enough that there is nothing NOT good about this look. This is what peak performance looks like, sweaty. That hair, that beard,  the rosy cheeks, the cozy red snood, the unbuttoned coat and- is that another waistcoat? This look? It is almost TOO good. This episode is loaded with looks. 

BONUS:

ANOTHER SMILE! 10000000/10

51/10. Yet another Soft Tom. He’s so soft. So good. He cares. He gets it. He’s on your side. Maybe not if you’re a mutineer, but he’s got your back. And a cute necktie. Bonus points for swoopy hair.

YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS

10000000/10. IT’S TOM VS. TUUNBAQ TIME BABEY!!!! Look at this absolute LAD. If anyone’s got this? IT’S HIM. SO BRAVE. SO COURAGEOUS. A TRUE HERO. Tom Hartnell is my favourite superhero.
