He probably cuts his own hair with shears. It would account for the constant bedhead look and do you really thing Harry would pay someone to cut his hair when he could do a perfectly serviceable job himself?

More like you think He'd let someone else cut his hair ? I could imagine Nicodemus hiding in the corner of a barber shop with a brushpan waiting for Harry to leave.

Age can be dealt with - it's looks and acting chops you need.

Well, I would agree, except that Thomas has to be "the high priest of bowflex", and I'm not certain a 50-year-old would fit that description.  If you remember the nerd-fury because Murphy was a brunette....   :)

Depends on the fifty year old.  And with the right costumes you can make anything seem possible, for the most part.

I suspect that whoever would do Thomas would have some CGI work done when his "hunger" is in control.  Take the eyes from grey to silver, make the features look completely even, the skin take on a slight 'glow'.  Most everybody's features are slightly off kilter - someone with totally even features looks outre and a touch out there.

Hurray! I'm back at last.  ;D

I love the idea of Harry cutting his own hair! It totally makes sense (and as the reasoning behind the perpetual bedhead look its perfect) but I'd never really thought about it before.

Oh, no doubt. Since he's already played such a sexy awesome vampire I'm not sure I actually support him playing such a similar role but I've just got to defend his awesome body. I know its been just a few years since "Buffy" but he's still in great shape and I'd love to see him take his shirt off right now. No disrespect to his wife, of course. ;)

He, James Masters played an interresting ;) role on the BBC show Torchwood who had very WC tastes in things of the flesh.  So yes he could pull off interresting dressing stituations.

I loved it when he first showed up on Torchwood.  I laughed so hard I almost cried.  Particularly when Gwen is driving him around, they're still linked together and he looks out the window and goes - "What's that - it's gorgeous!"  Gwen looks over, makes a small face and says - "it's a poodle!"

Ladies and Gentlemen, here is Nicodemus. There will be no further discussion on the matter.


And here's another that I thought was too big to post directly, but too perfect not to link:

Nah. While he'd make a great Marcone, Dalton would make a far better Nicodemus. Anyone who has seen The End Of Time (both parts) will know what I'm talking about.

Also, just in case the Winter King (Santa Claus) ever shows up...
