Terror Re-rewatch, Episode 1. Really Struck This Time Round By The Contrast In 'manner' Between Mr Goodsir

Terror re-rewatch, episode 1. Really struck this time round by the contrast in 'manner' between Mr Goodsir (I'm using the mister here for a reason) and Dr Stanley. The historical men had different training (hence Mr - a designation of someone *without* a degree in medicine vs Dr) but also vastly different *experiences*. Dr Stanley was a war surgeon (after his training as a doctor), and per history as well as in Fitzjames' own story in the show, he served in a combat theatre, being the one who saved Fitzjames' life after the Chinese sniper wound. I think that really informs the clever choice they made to cast such an austere looking fella as Alistair Petrie and how he acts -- this is a character that's seen *a lot* of death, and has a requisite coldness about it when David Young is dying. It really contrasts him to Goodsir, who trained as an anatomist and doesn't have a medical degree (and this is his first voyage/service as a surgeon) - how much death has Goodsir actually seen? How much does that inform how 'clumsy but caring' he acts with David Young? So interesting.

Terror rewatch, ep 1: just noticed it was Collins (as second master) who *sent* Billy Orren up top - specifically to teach another AB his knots! And it's Lieut. Le Visconte (aka Dundy) who won't let Collins try to save Orren after he falls -- notably, it's Collins who knows Orren's name and not Dundy -- perhaps presaging the Lieutenant's callousness about the men later?
