Carson Beckett/Paul McGillion Thunk Thread

[Atarah Derek]

I won't make the obvious joke here, I won't, I won't!

Stop right there, y'cheeky bugger!

I was thinking the same thing. Perfect LolScot for that response.

What is it about men in kilts? They all look really cool, but then there are those men that look downright HOT in kilts. Yup, kilts and Scottish accents. It's no wonder Carson's my favorite Atlantis character.

Although the outfit he was wearing in one of those pics reminded me on Charlie Eppes from Numb3rs, played by David Krumholtz, who is quite good looking himself. Hottest Jew in Hollywood, imho. Looks very good in a jacket, untucked shirt, loose tie and blue jeans.

But enough about the genius Jewish crime fighter. This thread's about the genius Scottish doctor.

Found this while searching for the identity of the tartan on Paul's kilt. Paul & co. at the Irwins' famous zoo (pretty sure it's their zoo, anyway; the blog said they were in Queensland):

That is a HUGE wombat! As David Nykl puts it, this is "the only know photo of Paul McGillion and a Wombat in existence." Makes me wonder if wombats normally get that big.

Hah- I think she meant tight-shirt-wearing Paul...
But yes, it gets to wear him, on speshul occasions...

btw- you changed your sig! A Joe sig! *gasp*
Very nice, but still...sigh. I guess you've back to being a Joe-girl now...

*shrugs* I'll change my mind in a couple of days. I always switch between these two.

Great minds...

...Now, if only Carson had worn a kilt...

Exactly. No space for more than one genius here!

OT wombat ramblings...

Yup, that'd be Australia Zoo....
And yes, as an Aussie who's held a pet wombat a few times, they can get bloody big. Heavy critters, sharp teeth. Heads like a concrete block.
Love 'em.
Also, that one is closer to the camera, so looks bigger than the Paul-in-the-distance.
I've heard that cars often come off second-best against them... http://www.wollondilly.nsw.gov.au/news/pages/15064.html

hahaha i love pauls face in that wombat picture! he's looking at it like he doesnt know what to do with himself ahaha

[Mirela]

Is it just me, or does the "wombat" in that picture look more like a koala bear? Whatever it is, it's got a chubby wombat-like body but its face (and fluffy ears) looks more like a koala. I'm not sure if koalas could walk like that on the ground though, hmm...

Oh and thanks to everyone who answered that quiz, I might stick it in the Off Topic section now...put more people through the hard slog of answering it

I have 3 Photobucket accounts - so I can dedicate one to Paul pics

[Crimsonravenwolf]

*is brain dead from GUH* What lovely Paul pix gang!! Great way to start off the week. More Hot Scot shots please!! Wooohooo!! hehe }:O

Um...as a proud Aussie, and one who has lived with and held both koalas and wombats, I can assure you that that is a wombat. 100%.
Piccies below...

Koala, as normally seen in a tree.

Koala walking.

Yes, they walk on the ground, but are much higher-up when doing so, and much faster. And they totally look different. You could never mistake a wombat for a koala, or vice versa, in a million years.


Wombat. never seen in trees.

Wombat walking.

Built close to the ground, like a little bulldozer. They waddle/shuffle a lot more. Slow but steady...

And I'm sorry, but please don't call them koala bears. They're not even related!

There, that's my patriotic duty done for the day.

On with more Paul!

(I saw the vids of this Con on youtube...such a nice way to spend an afternoon....switch it to full-screen, and sit back and enjoy.
- His non-stop flirting with the audience just has me in stitches....that man is such a ham! )

[Crimsonravenwolf]

Mirela,I'm glad you have a PB account just for Paul. You obviously have great taste. Cool chatter about wombats and koalas scaperfan...nice Paul
shot too. More Hot Scot shots please!! Wooohooo!! hehe }:O

This picture was posted a while ago, but it's been bugging me, not knowing what tartan he's wearing.

I finally found it. I kept looking at all the clan tartans, assuming that he was wearing the tartan of the clan that he's associated with. Finally I decided to look up generic tartans (after all, Billy Boyd has a kilt in a purple generic tartan, as well as his clan tartan). Paul is wearing a version of the Scotland National.

I found it here: http://www.scotweb.co.uk/tartan/Scot...National/71441
Billy Boyd's kilt (well, one of them) is in the Spirit of Scotland tartan:

Spoiler:

He looks really good in it. I wonder how Paul would look in purple?

[Keaira Taegan]

scaperfan that man is darn handsome he can flirt all he wants *siighhs longily* i wanna flirt with him

Atarah Derek he looks good in pretty much any color, lets be honest here haha

Thank you for the website. I was able to look up my family tartan. I had a book, but it's hard to get the pic on my computer.

[scaperfan]

I wonder how Paul would look in purple?

As good as he does in anything, I'd say!
Herewith, my very crappy attempt at photoshopping...

Yep, I'd say purple would suit him jist fine.
(I really need to learn how to do things on it properly, someday...)

Hehe- it is certainly a part of his charm...
And the accent when he does doesn't hurt either...

Atarah Derek he looks good in pretty much any color, lets be honest here haha

Yup, I have to agree. I really like him in white, though we don't see it that much...also, I really like this shirt on him, dunno why...I think just 'cause it looks so comfy.

Thanks!
I'm crap with photoshop, and that's about as inventive as I can get. I just adore that pic so much, I felt I had to try to make a sig with it...
