i am looking at this picture for research onlyAlso Tom and what seems to be yet another lack of underwear?
And I can imagine his lessons would be packed for....reasons
Probably the only circumstance I would ever actually fight to sit in the front. Love Professor Hiddles.

Easier access to be able to shag while still in the suit.Also Tom and what seems to be yet another lack of underwear?
You can vote for Tom for The Essex Serpent in the NTA awards (I have been voting each year...used to vote for Doctor Who a lot before Chibnall took over ). It also used to be a fun ceremony, not sure how about these days.
It is just to vote once so no need to keep reminding to go vote 12 times a day
Also, if you are not sure for what to vote in other categories....could you vote in comedy section for Only Murders in the Building? Thank you

'That scene'? The bit I loved was the complete awkwardness of the first kiss made it look more believable.
He just ate her face up

I knew he will be the kind of priest I like. Dear Lord forgive me! 
Do we think they really needed an intimacy coordinator?

How do we know he doesn't have underwear?
You can tell particularly in some older photos of him where you can clearly see the outline of uh…something
If he were wearing underwear it wouldn’t be quite so uh…staring us in the faceBelieve me I’m not complaining!
I’ve put TES on the side for stranger things
It was hot! And also heartbreaking. I’m liking the episodes better and better as it progresses, the cuts between certain scenes are absolutely stunning and some of the characters I hated are actually growing on me. They’re very multidimensional. I can’t believe there’s already just 2 episodes left and I’m not looking forward to another Tom drought until Loki airs next year (at least as far as projects).

TES anyone?
THAT scene was way too short. Y'all know what scene!
Also what's that with no undrwear??? You dirty birds! Haha! I love the way you think!

Agreed but if anyone is interested this person on twitter made an edit to splice it all together chronologically-
SPOILERS
And I LOVED the passionate awkward nose smushy kiss that seems to be Tom’s favorite. The guy has a big honker that gets in the way of kissing but it was SO sexy. I wish we had gotten more though, I have a feeling that’s going to be it because I can’t see it as a full blown affair rather than a moment (or 7) of passion. But I also haven’t read the book.
Oh gosh I forgot the intimacy coordinator! Yep that would have to be it.
I'm rewatching it, again, to stop myself wallowing in the terrible stuff on the internet. Some things jump out this time.
I finally really like Luke! He's still kind of a knob head but he's a more sympathetic & likeable one than he was in the book. Stella is an angel on this earth, both in the book & in the show.
One sweet thing I thought of - in that Jimmy Kimmel interview where Tom talked about how he thought the boy playing his son took a while to accept that he wasn't actually Loki & asked all kinds of questions every morning after the new Loki episodes dropped - imagine being that kid & you get to see one of your (apparently) heroes from the movies every day & he's nice to you & you get to talk to him about the stuff he's in that you love him for. And also he carries you around
I just think about what a wild & exciting & like, comforting thing that would be for a kid.I have finally seen it (also had to watch mid-finale of Better call Saul so I am no double stunned ) - also, came late from work (And what a work week again...I have to hold on for one more week to my vacation!)
I have to say, knowing the book, I have to appreciate a few things. (SPOILERS) - *that* scene here was a bit awkward (however intense) but in the book, it was a bit...not the way I can imagine "it" begins but whatever, I am old-fashioned
But I have to give it to them that the gradation is marvelous and the last 15 minutes were great.
Unlike in the book.....I didn´t mind Luke in the book. He was a bit selfcentered, ambitious but seemed to care for Cora and truly love her. I ...don´t like how Frank Dilane plays him. I am sure it is not his fault and he is just doing what is in the script (however, I am sure he chose a way how to play him based on it) But I definitely don´t remember him being so creepy, sleazy and posessive of Cora. The way he encourages her to do what she wants but disagreeing with it at the same time is incredibly patronizing and I hate that.
It is stressed out - and that agrees with Cora´s description in the book - that she does have that effect on people. Even that point about keeping Will in the jar at home as one of her curiosities is actually truthful. She collects favourite people, not things (it was even told like that in the book). I did have to shake my head when they were talking about "small parts" because we know that Tom is...the opposite
Anyway, I am curious how far they will go with Martha´s fanatism. I think with two episodes left and moving to London, I hope they won´t speed up her romance since we barely met the guy so I hope they will leave it out? I guess we´ll see. I am curious how far they will take her communistic fanatism. I do not mind Martha on the show, it is the actress, I think so I like her here. But the things she was saying in the book here and there made my blood boil (sorry, I cannot stand this ideology and its milder versions that are so favourite these days, but are similarly stupid and unrealistic)
Going back to the episode....I actually loved the scene where Will fought the villagers. He did not openly defend Cora, but stood up against them, by using a simple voice of reason, that there is no serpent and just fought against fanatism. A man of God but man of a reason, too. I hate religious fanatics of any kind (coming from the most atheistic country in Europe, I have to say, it is in my blood ) but I respect people´s beliefs when it is comforting for them and they are not hurting or forcing it on anyone.
It honestly made me angry how they started yelling at Cora that she is marked as witch when her scar appeared. It was the opposite, she was hurt by her abusive husband and they say this...no wonder she is so defensive.
Also, I am really sorry that the story (based on the book as well), did not offer Clémence Poésy much to do yet. Her few scenes here were great...Stella´s awareness of how Will is attracted to Cora, who she also likes and then basically encouraging him to go dance with her...maybe because she feels something is not OK with her and wants Will to be happy...
I have to say, I *love* how it looks. The opening above the marshes was beautifully shot, the absolutely gorgeous look inside Cora´s house during the party, the lights, the white wood...it looked like a magazine with "How to create a cozy cottage"
As I said a while ago, I felt the book did not have enough material for six episodes, I now have to admit I was wrong. As many of the letters from the book were turned into actual scenes, some things or characters were left out or appeared briefly, it feels like there is a lot to solve in just two episodes. But they can make the episodes longer or cut some stories short.
And in the end, a shallow note from me....Tom just looks stunning...in each scene, when he is his intense self, when he looks at Cora with *that look*, in the suit, the scene where he is dressing up....camera obviously loves him
But the camera work here is on the show is overall great. And I have to say, I would actually prefer this as a bingewatch and to see the whole thing at once.
Sorry for long post, I just cannot help myself when I like something Also, agree with @db131 I guess Loki will be filmed mostly inside studios so we may get some glimpses or random outside filming, maybe Tom attending something but after two episodes of TES, I am a bit worried we will end up with not much to look at. But Tom seems to glow lately, and obviously enjoys the social interaction so let´s hope he won´t disappear for long
SHORT EDIT: As much as I dislike Dillane as Luke here, their short interaction with Tom´s Will had as much chemistry as Tom has with Claire But I suppose Tom would have a chemistry with a tree if he chose to
