Things one learns while listening to British radio: alarm clocks that made tea used to be very popular in the UK. The idea is that it will wake you up and you will have a cup of tea waiting for you.

I feel like Q is very sad that this isn't really a thing any more. Or perhaps he has made himself a better version.

In other, "I'm Sorry All I Talk About is Tom Hiddleston" news: this literally made my day. Followed closely by this.

Those videos with Tom are adorable!!! And wow, it would be wonderful to have a tea-making clock radio. I definitely need one of those in my life as well. :)

He probably made one that could scan your brain activity as you slept so as to figure out what type of tea you'd want when you wake up.

Those videos are ADORABLE. That little girl in her ladybuy raincoat!! Who wouldn't want to squeeze her? I love how she's so tiny compared to TH.

In related TH news, some pics from the filming of Crimson Peak (which you may have seen already): http://torrilla.tumblr.com/post/84993092600/tom-hiddleston-jessica-chastain-charlie-hunnam

I used to have one of those - in the 1990s - more for my ex than me as I don't like tea!
