Ramblings on CONNOR TEMPLE'S FUCKING HAT

[jooles34]

I’ll do a full post from the SFX weekender soon as I have lots to bounce about, but this is the biggest bouncy thing – though a couple are very close – so I thought I’d get this up now.

 

So… as many people know I am a great lover of hats. And also a great lover of Le Connor Temple from Primeval (no, not in that way. Although… *ahem* anyway…), so when I saw that one of Connor’s hats was going to be auctioned at the Weekender it was like the holy grail of hats coming up for grabs. However, given that paying my mortgage and eating is often handy, there was no way that I could consider getting it, so when the auction started I ignored it, stole whiskey from Tony Lee to try to blank the pain and thought no more of it.

Until this happened…
 

  

 

Three interesting things to note about this vid are: 

1. the immediate glare that says “OI! Stop touching my fucking hat” is in response to having been snuck up on and having my hat stolen. I am a smidgy protective of my hats.
2. me being rendered speechless  is an occurrence most people never live to see. Or at least never live to report…
3. that this is indeed me losing my cosplay virginity with an attempt at Connor  in season two eps 6 & 7 with huge help from thescarletwoman  

Here are a couple of pics too. Me in the hat, and one of a Primeval shrine the Denialists created of Primeval iconic goodliness.



 

What you can’t see is that I am also wearing the hat right now as I write this…
