ABC Foreign Correspondent/former BBC journalist James Longman AND friends & acquaintances Part 3

Previous thread Part 2 here:

[quote]James Longman @JamesAALongman

Where your boss is 12 and you're only allowed to sit on bean bags? Hmm

Tomasz:

On the sauce...?

shame OP posted a very cropped photo for us to look at for the next God knows how many months.

NOT well thought out.

Her Majesty:

Have any of you brits had him? Stories?

Random throwback:

Throwback to bestie Timmy:

Timmy is the top?

So are we assuming that David Muir was responsible for him getting hired at ABC?

(I'm sorry if this has already been discussed but I don't feel like reading through those endless threads. I didn't realize he was at ABC now.)

No r11, the connection - if there's one - between James and Muir has hardly been explored at all.

R10: Bottom, more likely...

Oh, Tomasz.

Tomasz is SO funny.

He is though.

Like father like son...

Timmy is on vacay with Andrew:

R17 His father was beautiful. You can see the resemblance.

Yes indeed r19. But unfortunately the father also had schizophrenia, which is why I said 'but hopefully not too much though'...

Yeah, it's really tragic what happened with the father. Seems like James has done a good job to avoid that path. Who knows though... anyway, his father looks a bit like Miles Heizer. His eyes are gorgeous.

Introducing Alex Burkill...

BBC weather guy.

Blood doner

animal lover

his two bunnies

[quote]I worry people regret asking about my rabbits when I'm still talking at them 2 hours later 🐰

BEYOND adorable

Quirky and hilarious

[quote]Makeup's great; woke up looking like a zombie, now I look like makeup wearing zombie! Rain in the SW, otherwise dry!

Is Mr Burkill gay?

No sign of gurls. just bunnies.

Thine offering of Alex is accepted. Let the investigative social media stalking begin!

Note: Holy shit...bunny clocks and statues too?? I like him. He's strange, and I like him.

good let's get onto it:-

His twitter self description:

Media Advisor. @Forces_TV Weather Presenter

hmmm... >>

[bold] I like clouds, rabbits, baking,[/bold]

BUT

[quote] F1 & Arsenal.

Alex doesn't seem gay to me, but he's cute, and his bunny fixation is as endearing as it is strange.

[quote]Alex doesn't seem gay to me

No? what [bold]we don't want[/bold] is another Rich scenario.

NO, siree.

Any confirmation that Jack Hanrahan is gay?

[quote]Alex doesn't seem gay to me,

gurl, please...

>>>

[quote]Any confirmation that Jack Hanrahan is gay?

Was wondering this myself.

R34 Awww, Alex is a cutie! Yeah, sure, he may be gay.

[quote][R34] Awww, Alex is a cutie!

Yes.

Timmy Being sexy:

For those wondering about Jack: throwback to all-male Thanksgiving dindin with famed HETERO director Mr Bryan Singer:

Jack hopnobbing with various famed HETERO Hollywood figures:

Oh Jack went to Eric Podwall's Halloween party? Ok that answers that.

Closeup:

Yes r41: Bryan Singer AND Eric Podwall - I think the writing's on the wall...

Timmy on vacay:

[quote]timworlockGetting it in. Not shallow at ALL ✌🏻

Cheeky:

#friends:

yeah guys, i don't think Alex Burkill is gay. he's giving blood in r23 and in the tweet he says he donates often. So even if he is gay/bi he's probably celibate or closeted.

SWOLE:

Timmy flexing nonchalantly.

Seems cozy with this guy.

I think they're dating, r51.

so Timmy's got a lookalike boyfriend.

who's surprised?

Like a diamond:

Timmy can't be gay it's illegal for gay guys to give blood in the UK.

Seriously R60?

Timmy can't be gay. He's too muscular.

Why the fuck can't gay men give blood in the UK?

Men who have sex with men

Men who last had sexual contact with another man more than 12 months ago are able to give blood if they meet the other blood donor selection criteria.

Anyone can acquire a blood-borne virus or a sexually transmitted disease, but some people have an increased risk of exposure.

They may not be able to give blood at all, or for a certain period of time.

This keeps the blood supply safe and reduces the risk of transmitting an infection to a person receiving blood.

Statistically, men who have sex with men have a higher risk of acquiring blood-borne diseases, infections and viruses.

Using protection like a condom can reduce this risk, but it doesn’t eliminate it. See information on this in the Public Health England Annual Report.

That is why we can’t collect blood from men who have had oral or anal sex with men, with or without protection, in the last 12 months.

That's fucking discrimination.

Notice they have very UNEnglish looking people in their promos.

Maybe Timmy is lying and giving blood despite having sex with men.

If he did, he could face a jail sentence.

They do suck though. Our advice is that you should not click on the link and whatever you do, don't read their truly terrible articles.]

I'm not sure if it's in effect, but the UK government was looking into easing the ban from 12 months to 3 months

And it may be why it isn't Timmy giving blood, it's Alex Burkill at r48.

[quote]And it may be why it isn't Timmy giving blood, it's Alex Burkill at [R48].

Oh, right. I didn't understand all the references to Timmy giving blood.

Thank you r71 for the clarification.

Via Timmy's IG story

The comments at the DM article are pretty funny [with the usual vaguely homophobic dosage mixed in]: many thought James and Timmy are a couple.

*halfwits

James looks like he has really nice skin.

Puppy love:

Meanwhile, Tomasz seems to be growing bananas in London [!]:

I wonder what James beauty secrets are? retinol's, lasers, peels what ya think guys?

His father was quite youthful as well. I think it's just genetic.

Also, Tomasz will forever have my heart. I adore him and his green thumb!

I'm getting a bit bored of these people. They're dreary - like the English weather.

Cutie boyfriend with Specs:

James's biography page at ABC:

Childhood !

Why does Tomasz have so many tropical fruits at his place?

What a cute gayby R91

[quote]Trips to my mother mean digging up gems like this. Age 7, Hill House School

So even when he visits his mother it's all about HIM and photos of HIM.

DL FAVE Gio left a comment too:

[quote]GiobenitezI feel like we all had this cut at some point. 😂 stylin

GIO has taken notice of James, he's commented on his last two instapics.

[quote]I'm getting a bit bored of these people. They're dreary - like the English weather.

I know what you mean, but I find that charming. They're so low key, which, as an American, is refreshing. They'll still flaunt their bodies (James less so), but they're not obnoxious about it at all.

R89 Alex is so pretty.

R91 Anyone else getting Haley Joel Osment vibes?

R92 I want to feel Tomasz's biceps.

[quote]GIO has taken notice of James, he's commented on his last two instapics.

And I'm sure Tommy has taken notice of this as well.

[quote][R91] Anyone else getting Haley Joel Osment vibes?

I think someone commented: 'I see dead people'...

Thank god James doesn't look like how HJO looks now.

Beefcakes:

Timmy is so tiny. Did they pack him with the luggage?

Happy July 4th - from a Brit very much enjoying a new adventure on the best US network 📽@abcnews @goodmorningamerica @abcworldnewstonight #july4th #fourthofjuly

We're still hotter:

r103, I think when you google search the word "gayface" that picture automatically comes up

James looks stunning at r102.

[quote]Giobenitez: 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Asking for vacay ideas:

[quote]Giobenitez: 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[quote]—should Tommy start getting worried?

Start? He's been worried since ABC brought James.

Looks like James has put on weight.

All those expense account dinners c/o ABC.

It suits him.

Tomasz is a godforsaken HOT MESS, what with the being drunk on air, throwing up on air and having post-sex issues with his compulsive laxative use.

James is at the centre of a whirlwind in Hamburg.

Be CAREFUL James.

Roger Black, the runner - reminds me of James.

Do YOU see it?

R111: good for James. He's getting so much more exposure now at ABC. BBC definitely under-used and underemployed him.

Those Germans, always ready to Partay...

....

stinky linky @ R115.

Okay, let's try again:

Bitch Rich Preston marching in Pride with his "girlfriend" and texting gays Ben Bland and Ari Shapiro

Yasss R118. He still likes loads of gay stuff on IG.

Interestingly, he liked a pic last week which said "Some People Are Bi. Get Over It!" I guess that's his thing.

Yep, Rich is bi.

Don't bring Rich back into the equation.

My heart sank when I saw his photo reappear.

how do you see someone's likes on IG?

"Bi's" need to realize that "bi" is a step to gay for many people

It's on the mobile app only. Hit the little heart-shaped "like" button at the bottom, then switch from likes involving "You" at the top, to the likes of people you are "Following".

It provides useful tea for celebrities who I'm researching for DL purposes....Ben Barnes, Garett Clayton, Miles Hiezer, T. Lautner, Nick Robinson, Arthur Nory, Douglas Booth, etc.

You're a peach, R124. Mwah!

OMG Rich is posting up a storm on IG. I can appreciate his enthusiasm and appreciation for the gay community.

Boyband vibe:

Special Guest:

I'm getting Timmy Withdrawal Syndrome.

Aww, guys they've been together for half a year!

They kept it so low key. I feel like we [italic]just[/italic] found out about Alex, who just posted this two minutes ago. Guess today's the day they decided to officialize it.

The sex is probably hot as hell.

Of course Gio and Tommy left their comments on R130

I wonder how they met...

[quote]The sex is probably hot as hell.

Can't even imagine. Damn.

Tommy and Gio are probably feeling rather threatened re: their reigning status of ABC Foremost Same-Sex Couple!

[quote] Of course Gio and Tommy left their comments on [R130]

Of course Gio and Tommy left their emjois on [R130].

Hahah, Tommy and Gio can't even compare to be honest. Tommy and Gio document every aspect of their relationship on the daily, whereas James and Alex have been dating for six months and the most we've got is a handful of pics... between the two of them!

Throwback: their first appearance together back in March:

[quote] Of course Gio and Tommy left their emjois on [[R130]].

emojis.

[quote] Tommy and Gio are probably feeling rather threatened re: their reigning status of ABC Foremost Same-Sex Couple!

They're probably plotting another stunt to be featured in People magazine even as we speak.

Alex's ethnicity? What do you think?

R142: just a wild guess - English Jewish?

What's your guess?

Oops never mind - Xmas tree!

Brannan sounds like a bastardisation of Brennan, so possibly Irish back the generations.

Will Alex be an example of the so-called 'Dark Irish'?

Sorry I meant 'Black irish'.

Why does Tomasz have to be so boring on Instagram?

I think Tomasz's terrarium is charming and adorable and I want to make my own.

Showing some skin while meditating.

Fight on Baby Charlie!

Coverage:

Blimey - ever since James joined ABC there's been so much about England in the international headlines.

It hasn't stopped.

Angels in America:

Good morning America:

Natural beauty:

Solitary:

James making a funny face at a rooftop:

James is SO funny.

James is getting lots of practice.

Don't sleep on Tomasz's bulge at r157. Or do sleep on it... IFYAKNOWHADDIMEAN!

Someone is getting a LOT of Zen practice:

James, if you're reading this - SLOW DOWN a little when you talk on TV. Just a little. It might be nerves. But try.

Don't these people have directors to advise them on presentation?

I hadn't realised Tomasz is 38!

I thought he was 24 at most.

And 4evah 24 at heart, doncha forget it!

A bigger one for full justice:

James's full report on the Grenfell Fire:

Arty Throwback:

Oops sorry for the repeat at r195, how abt this one:

Timmy and Papa:

Timmy and Mummy:

I don't think Timmy would call her Mummy - too middle or upper class. Mum.

James is very upset - he just bought an apartment in a small two apartment house and the lease holders have sent him a HUGE bill for works on the house.

[quote]Hi @CityWestHomes - I bought my flat in May and you've just billed me £25k for 'major works.' I've been quoted 3k...bit steep don't u think?

IRONY:

Timmy obviously has very nice parents and comes from a nice family.

Just two years ago, James looked so much younger

Boy > Man

That's lighting.

And I've never met a working class person called Timmy. Worlock is also a tip off. "Mummy" seems apt.

Throwback: Cousins -

[quote]And I've never met a working class person called Timmy.

I have.

& now everyone calls him Tim.

[quote] "Mummy" seems apt.

I'd bet big bucks it's Mum.

Well if everyone calls him Tim, he's no longer Timmy.

He uses Timmy for his Instagram - & it's cute.

Ah, to separate his "personal" internet profile from his professional.

Probably. I'm sure we'll continue to call him Timmy.

Not short enuff:

she doesn't look it - maybe she was born there and grew up there, but she seemed English to me in the video I saw.

Hence the French and Arabic languages.

Cutie boyfriend Alex has a sense of humor about himself:

Tomasz being artsy:

Tomasz used to be 'Tomek':

Who is this Tomasz guy and why is he on this thread?

He's a friend and acquaintance of James R253. Are you new to these threads?

Forgive me r254, It's been a while since I've come on this thread and was surprised a rather homely man was be spoken of on this thread without context given of his association with Mr. Longman.

Timmy looks gorgeous with a haircut:

Meanwhile Tomasz doesn't look too bad either:

James banters with David Muir on Fire in Dubai:

James next.

Pretty sure Timmy just went to his friend's wedding.

James and his beau, on the other hand, look like they're ready to shack up.

James's Attitude Magazine --Aug 5 2017-- interview (preABC) whilst at the BEEB..

.How tall id he? I've fallen in lust, I think.

*id- is

ego etc. ;)

Here's my Brit crush. He has what I'd describe as "horsey good looks". Even with some slightly outsized features, I'd say his face is still better balanced than James', which suffers from a weak looking jaw relative to his over dominant cheekbones. That said, that quality would serve James well in drag.

Good find R269.

But he has no connection to James

Don't speak too soon. He's friends with Travis Bryant and has the likes of DL fave Jeffrey Self and Russell T. Davies in his comments. He's tri continental (UK/US/Australia).

But I thought the whole point of this thread was to have some relationship with James Longman? Why not just start a new thread for him?

Does the weatherman have much of a connection to James?

Did the guy who posts LGBT stuff to Twitter but apparently has a dowdy gf have much of a connection to James?

Is Longman involved in the Terrence Higgins Trust?

[quote]But I thought the whole point of this thread was to have some relationship with James Longman? Why not just start a new thread for him?

Torn between Art and Gym:

LOL at his first post. Elton and... Dawson.

They don't pose like a couple. Closeted?

R294: I see Elton, but who's Dawson?

Tomasz is seriously an amazing artist

Showing it off

Why am I not surprised that Bryan's too old to be boyfriend but young enough to be a boytoy Daniel Miller is with Jack on his trip to Prague.

Tomasz just needs to draw more adult themes - not teenage nonsense. Maybe he should draw James. That would be something.

Why are they keeping Daniel around, they could do so much better.

Boyfriend Alex spending time apart from James:

Throwback: Besties doing Duets together-

I was watching ABC news last night and James didn't have the most flattering angles. It's clear he looks the best when he's looking straight ahead and his profile is not as flattering.

How about this one?

Seeking inspiration at the MOMA:

OMG - Timmy deleted his GRAM!

How is Tomasz acquainted with James? They don' really gel on this thread. T seems a homey type, whereas James seems a sleek jetsetter in comparison. Both are nice looking if not very handsome.

T's in NYC - so not THAT homey. He gets around.

so, no more Timmy.

Aaawww sweetness:

Meanwhile boyfriend Alex is vacationing in Bali:

Another cute baby:

Does James want to be a gay dad?

R332: yes he seems really into babies and kids. The fact that he lost his father at a young age - and in such traumatic circumstances too - probably has something to do with it too.

[quote]Same.

no one seems to care too much about the departure of Timmy.

maybe he got a lot of hate mail after they published that photo of him, with James, in The Daily Mail.

Alex is still in Bali:

Please come back and réactivate your Instagram, Timmy!

New haircut. You like?

Fit!

Whoa... I didn't realize Timmy deleted his Instagram. I'm sure it had nothing to do with us, right? These threads aren't [italic]that[/italic] popular, neither are they especially salacious. Hope he's alright.

James seems to be doing well, and Alex is fucking beautiful. Hope they're enjoying each other.

I wonder if he crossed paths with Alexis, who's just left.

James is very popular with the rest of the team at ABC.

Smiles all round.

Yes indeed, r355:

And he's so good with babies:

Looks like James has had his teeth bleached for his American audience.

Oh, dear...

One way track to Ken Doll.

Tomasz has been posting a lot about the hurricanes over the last couple days

The boyfriends are reunited, in NYC -Yay!

Info overload:

James's first time on the set of Good Morning America.

Trust me, he'll be living in the USA before this decade's out.

England's loss, America's gain.

Smiles and laughter.

They LOVE James.

And boyfriend Alex took this pic:

I'd love to see some actual footage of James on GMA.

[quote]Trust me, he'll be living in the USA before this decade's out.

I believe it. I like that Alex is visiting him in NY. Happy for James to be honest.

I hope if he makes the move stateside that he doesn't succumb to getting work done.

He's already recently bleached his teeth, R367. Maybe he had it done there.

Teeth whitening is mild but don't mess with the profile, jawline etc.

James seems to be back in London.

Thanks r370: James looks great in that clip. Seriously, the light pink eye shadow is so flattering.

Nope - looks like he reported on this London story from New York.

[quote]Boyfriend doing bits:

[quote]Wonderful to have @JamesAALongman in NYC w/ us this week - his story for @GMA Friday on Prince George & security -

I'm in tears.

This seems to be a longer clip of James in NYC.

The panel say how great it is to see him and have him in NYC at the end - so watch it thru. It's worth it.

NYC

peculiar - take a photo of yourselves in New York... against a white wall.

Boyfriends:

Why twice that photograph?

I'm not nearly as enamoured with James's BF as someone else on this thread - who has a little crush, I think.

If I knew James was reporting on Good Morning America this week I would have passed by the studio on my way to work for a hopeful glimpse.

Nice plant:

Cosy at home night:

James misses New York:

James is really rising up the media ranks here, it pays to be handsome.

he doesn't say he misses NY - but that he had a "brilliant time"

Wedding in Egypt:

James tells an amazing real life love story:

[quote]Story time: I'm writing this sitting in Helipolis Basilica in Cairo. In the Second World War, a 21 year old New Zealand officer called Harold Claridge was posted to Egypt. At a ball thrown by King Farouk to welcome the allies, he met a glamorous young woman called Gabriella Sawaya, from a Lebanese family living in Egypt. He spoke only English, she only spoke French, Arabic, Greek and Italian. No English. So they sat on a palace balcony, accompanied by her aunt as chaperone, trying to communicate, giggling at their misunderstandings. The evening ended and she gave him her address. He was called away to Alamein on the front lines in the north soon after, but while he was away he wrote her letters. When eventually he came back to Cairo in 1944, he found she had been learning English for him. They were married here, just a metre or two from where I'm sitting. They had my mum a year later, and when the war finished they ended up fleeing revolutions and civil wars from Libya to Iraq to Lebanon and then finally to the UK, making them refugees many times over. They died within a year of one another when they were 96 years old. Maybe the secret to a happy marriage, is not being able to fully understand one another 😉. But also maybe it's just they were meant to be ❤️

OMG Timmy is back on Instagram!

Timmy's back.

Did you not take a second to see the post above you R418?

You only posted 15 hours apart...

R419: Oh don't be too harsh on r418 - surely Timmy's online reappearance is worthy of a double post 👻

Throwback: Good hair day in Egypt-

Well Hello:

James says he suffers from depression.

As mentioned upthread, his father was schizophrenic and committed suicide when James was 9. His grandfather killed himself too.

But he's quite happy lately:

That is a pained smile if I've ever seen one, R436.

Yet somehow I find it hard to sympathize with a gorgeous person with a perfect body who's at the tip-top of his profession.

Yeah, I mean, I sympathize with James on principle, but I'd guess that on the spectrum of those who've lost their parent to suicide, he's probably doing okay.

Aaaw, poor tired baby James:

There's something about James.

Sharp nose.

No eyelashes.

Fake muscles.

Overweening vanity.

Cozy babies:

[quote] James Longman James Longman @JamesAALongman I’ve been in Warsaw at the National Day march. Young, mostly male. Angry. Didn’t feel like a celebration. Felt like an aggressive call to war

Is David flirting with James?

^ Oops, link doesn’t seem to work. Let’s try again:

I'm American so I can't tell but maybe someone English can? Does James have a gay English accent?

Double Handsomeness at the UK Diversity Tole Models Spectacular Gala:

They don't really look right together. If you told me Alex was 19 and James was 34, I wouldn't doubt it. James just has a more adult (not haggard at all) face.

In what universe does Alex look 19?

Alex is 27.

He looks college age. It's not a mature looking face (and by mature, I don't mean middle aged). James has that big roman nose, in contrasting effect.

Even lil Timmy looked better with James.

Anyway, none of this is a complaint, just an observation. At least Alex has a reason to be on this thread, unlike that weatherman - I suspect whoever posts him realises that there isn't all that much interrst in him or he'd give the scribbler his own thread.

*interest

[quote]I'm American so I can't tell but maybe someone English can? Does James have a gay English accent?

No, he doesn't.

James looks like his Dad.

Goofy smile.

Blimey, major James lookalike on Alex's feed.

NO...that is NOT James.

That looks nothing like James.

I'm waiting for this not-particularly-smart Englishman do give us something overtly sexual instead of these pale flirty posts.

[quote]That looks nothing like James.

It TOTALLY looks like him.

r472 Alex looks black there.

More frontline reportage:

R512 Do you mean if you were his husband?

Let's be honest, he got hired for his looks. I'm not saying he's a bad journalist but his looks separate him from the uglies.

They’re both vers, surely?

Is James bipolar?

One of his friends said he changes apartments every 9 or 10 months.

Probably due to his work

[quote]Probably due to his work

I abandoned this thread after James came out because I figured there was no more tea. I think I figured wrong.
