Dammit, he's lost so much of the weight he put on, and we never got to see him shirtless. Look at the juggling photo or a SDCC pic and you can pretty clearly see it. In the juggling photo, you can see how thick his neck is, and how broad and stacked his upper body was.
The outfit is almost perfect, but marred a bit by the legs being to long on his jeans. He needs to have them shortened. Of course his face so who cares.
What is the general consensus about who the girl is? They're not acting like they're physically intimate, but that could just be the extreme privacy thing. I've decided that she's just a friend and I'm sticking to that, even if he ends up marrying her.
Well, to be fair, he is turned to the side and it makes him look thinner than he probably is, but I agree that he has probably lost some of the muscle mass he had obtained. I did most prefer him that way but, hey, it's his body. *shrugs* Perhaps its very difficult for him to maintain? At least he still looks healthy..
Although, now that I think about it, did you see the pictures of him at Cold Con? Because he still had pecs and biceps there, that's for sure!
Yes, I did also notice the pants were too long for him and I kind of went in my head, "Colin...you're tall. How exactly do you go out and get pants that are too long for you?" The pants looked new to me, so perhaps there wasn't time...or perhaps its just not the sort of thing a bachelor worries about, because, yeah...his feece!
(reminds me of a scene from the movie "Ever After": Danielle: The shoes are too big... Gustave: Trust me, nobody will be looking at your feet

It's the clothes. He has lost body fat again, there's no arguing that but the muscles will still be there. Physiologically speaking, muscle is easier to build than it is to lose. It takes quite a while to debulk and relatively little to maintain. Also, if you look at the "Gary" photo from the Old Vic on the 9th you can catch the outer edge of pectoral muscle, still nice and defined :D
Actually, dropping body fat means the muscles themselves are more prominent under the skin. If you prefer definition over bulk (which I do) then you can imagine he's looking extraordinarily hot under the (at least) three layers of clothing he has on here. A shirt (and knowing Colin, possibly an undershirt) plus a sweater, plus a jacket means you aren't going to see a lot of what's underneath.
It was one date. We know nothing about her or them or anything. If we see her start to show up with him at more functions, then it might be "cause for worry", so to speak. One night does not a girlfriend make.
But, good on him, really. He's been working his ass off since he started Merlin. No one could have kept up his schedule and had time for a social life.
I'd be very happy if the man has found himself a gf. It's nice to think he'll finally get to have a personal life and not be doomed to the life of a perpetually lonely workaholic.
Now about that sweater...it could be the same one. I only say this because I noticed in the hi res shots that the one Colin wore to the Ballet reception is showing distinct signs of wear around the collar. Not saying it is the same jumper but it could be...
Gods, I would be ecstatic for him if he found himself a "nice" girl and settled down. (Yes, I know, quite a jump from, "Look, he has a date!" to "He should settle down.." but you know what I mean.) Nice guys often get saddled with royal bitches.
Besides, loving your job and staying busy is one thing, being so much of a workaholic that you have no life otherwise is totally another.
Now, you know I'm going to have to go and study those shots in detail, now that you've brought that up, don't you?
It appears, Ms. Eagle Eye, that you are correct! And for Colin's penchant to keep and re-wear clothes (that jumper from the juggling pic being the same one we saw in the "A Night Less Ordinary" promotion, for example, and those are several years apart), it's quite possible that it IS the same sweater!
Seriously, I am ROFLMAO about that comment, millionstar! It does seem rather unfair that he's so ridiculously hot, but it couldn't happen to a nicer guy, so I'll let it slide... hehehe (still chuckling over your comment...)
I will also be SO happy for him if he finds someone who makes him happy. *grins stupidly at the thought*
I guess it all boils down to the fact that in my world, where Colin is involved at least, punishment is sometimes in order. And by sometimes I mean all the time.
*phew, is it hot in here??* not just the photos, but all your comments for making me think ridiculous things (I'm all in for kissing him, or rather parts of his anatomy, better)

Yes, I think about these things.

I just want him happy and if it comes to light that this woman makes him so then I'll be the first to hug her as well.
