Regarding Trueblood's hoody strings: this carping is unnecessary: He's obviously read widely and has a quick decisive recall, has confidence in his own intellect but is not afraid to confer with his team-mates and make intelligent guesses. Though he gives the impression of being rather nervy, underfed and on edge it's foolish to critique his cord twiddling coping mechanism if this is his means of achieving such spectacular results.
I agree. Mr. Trueblood has a quality of sensitivity that I find irresistible. As for looking underfed, I would love to take him to lunch so he could have one of those hearty, stick-to-your ribs dishes the Brits are famous for, let's see, Bangers & Mashed or Shepherds Pie perhaps. And as for his hoody cord twiddling, I wouldn't have it any other way! Oh, and he probably has a genius IQ.
There, naughty girls and boys, consider yourselves rightly reprimanded. And may I be rightly reprimanded for being unable entirely to see that Mr Trueblood is any less well-fed than the gentlemen on his right and left. (This is the problem with widespread obesity, that the man once considered perfectly normal/slim/healthy is now considered underfed/skinny.)
rosecolouredglasses Does this mean the world has to put up with a thousand years of cord fiddling? Edvard Munch needs to make a painting of my face right now, that being the case.... :-)
Having seen his previous three (?) appearances in the season, I was dreading if (or when) Trueblood was going back to twirling his hood strings: right after the second starter!
miroe33 In regards to Armitage: nobody can do worse in that respect than that Bishop guy from Southampton in the last series. As far as Trueblood is concerned: credit where credit is due, the man is really, really good. My guess is that it's going to be an Oxbridge final with St. Peters v. Gonville & Caius.
What, I ask you, is the point of an MA in the history of medicine? She should study something meaningful with some actual use to society like my own area. I'm doing a PhD in toenail clipping in 12 century Bulgaria, because I want to make a difference.
A team led by Gabriel Trueblood and another team led by Fred Harvey of Durham would be for the ages; what happens when an unstoppable force runs into an unmoveable object.
Trueblood is very bright, but I wish he'd stop meddling with his clothes strings - it must be putting off his colleagues, and is quite juvenile - just keep your hands on the desk!
Very sorry, he's not meddling with them, he's fiddling with them. No more annoying to me than someone smoking or young woman fiddling with her hair, which one sees everywhere.
Trueblood, Loveday, Binnie & Quinn are the smartest from this series. Martinelli & Taylor too.

I like Trueblood, he knows his stuff and he has a cool manner.
Thanks so much for posting, I'm following this series with interest from Melbourne. Trueblood and those damn hoody cords!
He's the kind of person you would see in an Agatha Christie novel, the murderer who was given away by his unconscious habit... :-)
Joseph Karl or maybe a brooding vampire

Joseph Karl just weekly on a teen drama
rosecolouredglasses That's alright then!
Trueblood was awesome in this round.
Trueblood is my choice to play Mr. Darcy.
Trueblood is my future husband. Called it!
Roland barthes in 1888?!
Roberts looks as though he's wondering how he got mixed up in this and allows himself an occasional conspiratorial smirk.
Armitage bascially has a front row seat to watch the show. His face is the only contribution the show
Syeda Khanom He did answer a physics bonus question.
literally shakes his head to every question bar maths and physics...pity theres no questions about expensive suits
He did? Where?
The one on spin.
Ballard looks young. He is so cute!

Whatever. This guy kicks some serious ass here. And Armitage is once again sitting like a pharaoh's mummy and being useless.

miroe33 Pretty sure he did more than Roberts in this one
I wonder why.

He says something several times this time round.
Trueblood is a very talented individual. If he went to a larger college then we could see an extremely high caliber team.

Ooops sorry. When I made the title I just thought, "they can't be from the same place, can't they?"
YES, THEY CAN ACTUALLY!!!!!!! *le gasp*
@@yaorito1 I thank you for posting these. No need to apologise.

History is essential for determining identity. If you were to justify it in narrow contemporary terms, it develops important analytical skills.
