## History

Tom was introduced in the 5th season, and also appears in the 2008 series, including the feature-length specials.

## 2003 Series

In the 2003 series, Tom is mainly seen during some rescue missions. However, in Let it Snow, he uses his helicopter to go to Newtown to get supplies for Dilys' shop.

## 2008 Series

In the 2008 series, Tom helps the fire brigade with emergencies more often, mostly having a few non-speaking roles, like in the episodes Poorly Penny, Three Legged Race and Danger by the Double. In this series, he is shown to be a good abseiler, as demonstrated in the episodes Fireworks for Mandy and Pontypandy Extreme.

## Personality

In the 2003 series, Tom is generally a kind person, similar to most of the other characters and in the 2008 series, he is also shown to be a bit cocky and competitive, as seen in the episode, Sausages vs. Shrimps. He is also shown to be 'animal mad', just like Bronwyn, as seen in Cry Wolf and Perilous Path.

## Physical Appearance

In the cartoon, Tom had fair skin tone, thicker blond hair, blue eyes and wears orange rescue outfit with beige boots. He wears sunglasses some of the time. In the 2008 series, Tom is slightly taller than Elvis, and his hair is thicker. His sunglasses have changed design too, having black visors that completely go over his eyes, as identified in the picture above. He mostly wears them when he's in his helicopter, but the episode Cat Magic was where he wore them whilst driving his 4x4.

In the fanfics, he has pale complexion.
