Wilde: "You know what, I think I'll take the job. Titanic is a wonderful ship and the other officers seem like nice chaps."

Murdoch: *having a mental breakdown*

Lightoller: *pranking everyone*

Pitman: *makes confused noises*

Boxhall: *slams face into the wall*

Lowe: *aggressively pressing buttons*

Moody: *running around screaming*

Wilde: ......

Wilde: "This is fine."

Titanic Officer Barbie Movie Posters (and 1 fun fact about each of the officers!)

(Because why not)

Feel free to save as phone wallpapers 🙈

I’ve decided to include our babeypurser McElroy because the role of Purser is sometimes regarded as an officer role. Among all the officers, Lightoller (B), Pitman (5), Boxhall (2) and Lowe (14) survived the sinking. McElroy was the only officer whose body was recovered and identified; he was buried at sea.

Now to the fun facts!

Henry Wilde: he was already captain and was set to command the SS Cymric for the Liverpool to Boston Route. Unfortunately, the coal strike happened and his first voyage with Cymric was delayed to presumably 1st May. White Star Line decided to put him in onto the crew of Titanic as Chief Officer.

As you guys may know already, Henry Wilde is my favourite officer so it’s not surprising that I have been posting about him for this April. I also am currently doing a series of TikToks for his actions throughout Titanic’s maiden voyage as well🙈

Here’s my post about Wilde being made aware of joining Titanic

This is my post on the Crew Shuffle if anyone would like to read more about it

William Murdoch: Charles Lightoller thought his bestie’s moustache make him look ugly so he grew his moustache so that Will could shave. Nevertheless, we all think otherwise.

Charles Lightoller: of course, his role as one of the captains of the little ships during the Dunkirk Evacuation. He saved around 130 lives in it with his family yacht, the Sundowner.

Side note: currently, the Sundowner is a museum ship in Ramsgate but sadly, the yacht is in a bad condition and we need money to repair. I know I don’t have much high opinions on the British (yeah except Henry Wilde), despite having been living in England for almost 5 years, but Lightoller has been one of the most intriguing figures to me; being through 4 shipwrecks and fire, also living through Titanic, WWI, and Dunkirk, his story of hope and survival is worth a movie. If you would like to help preserving a piece of history, please consider donate to help save this famous getaway yacht little ship🙈

And here’s the campaign video by our TikTok Lightoller Fan Club President Melissa on saving the getaway yacht

Herbert Pitman: despite suffering from seasickness, this son of a farmer had a more than half-century long seafaring career, retiring in 1946. He started his career as an apprentice, then a deck officer and when he could not pass the eye test due to colour blindness at one eye, White Star Line made him a purser and he stayed in this position for the rest of his career. Pitman served in both world wars on troop ships; when he retired, he was a Lieutenant-Commander of the Royal Naval Reserves and was created an MBE in 1948, in recognition of his long service in the merchant marine.

Joseph Boxhall: he had a very happy marriage with his wife Majory and they were very fond of their dogs. This may be a substitute to children given that they do not have children together but anyways if anyone asked why you haven’t had kids yet, tell them about the Boxhalls and their doggos 🐶

Harold Lowe: he was a hobby artist who works with watercolours, as well as wood carvings. This may come across as surprising but you should not be surprised given that his father was an artist. There are a few of Harold’s drawings exists today, including a sketch of Titanic (in which he messed up with the funnels). Oh yes, he was also in the church choir as well when he was young.

James Moody: During his South American runs, he would sometimes flirt with female passengers with his very patchy Spanish and well, sometimes he just dropped in some swear words by accident. Yeah, in case you wondered, he’s not that shy as you thought after watching Ed’s portrayal of our daring Jim in the 1997 movie (the real Jim was quite cheeky actually).

Hugh McElroy: as the ship’s purser, he was there to take care of passengers’ needs (like he’s basically the “manager”). From parrot-tending (yes, and he trained the parrot to do morse code) to organising marriage ceremonies for runaway couples, he’s there to try to help. And as a result, he was a very popular man on the ship and passengers were honoured to share a table with him.

Why do I care so much more about the officers, who had a combined total of maybe 15 minutes of screentime in a 3 hour movie, than I do about Jack and Rose 🤣🤣🤣

I like the idea of an ismay-lowe rivalry, but I especially like the idea of a ONE SIDED ismay-lowe rivalry. like lowe's chewing ismay out and ismay's just like "ok, geez, I'll go over there, good luck with this lifeboat though" and he doesn't think anything more of it. but you bet lowe's losing sleep, fuming over ismay's existence

Lowe: "You're pretty dumb, James."

Moody: "Thank you."

Lowe: "Wait, why are you thanking me? I just insulted you."

Moody: "All I heard was 'you're pretty'. I'm focusing on the positives of life."

2am thoughts: First Impressions on the Titanic Officers

Disclaimer: these are totally random thoughts, and most of these are sort of from the 1997 movie, as you have already guessed (nevertheless I’m not the biggest fan of the movie because the romance is just not my cup of tea). My heart goes to everyone who were involved in this disaster, especially those who have lost their family members in the sinking.

Chief Officer Wilde

goofy ahhh middle name

wait so he’s the actual chief officer????

He looks like that one IKEA bear plushie (and coincidentally I named my own Henry)

100% will hug him

The way he crawled out of the water and blew his whistle in the 1997 movie makes me wished that he’s scooped out of the water 😭

Poor man leaving his tinies behind 😢

1st Officer Murdoch

scrunkly

He looks quite important in the movie

why does he have a lot of fangirls

he just looks like other moustache dudes bro 😭😭😭😭😭 (*am numb after seeing lots of moustache men from my WWI stuff)

2nd Officer Lightoller

awwww he looks sweet like look at his smiley eyes🥺🥺🥺

he looks like a Herbert more than a Charles

he badass, his entire life was an odyssey

oh wait why the fangirls😭😭😭😭😭😭 

 WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE THIRSTING OVER HIM I-

I’m calling him Lightsy😔✨

3rd Officer Pitman

Teddy bear🥺🥺🥺

he SMOL

Where is he in the movie????

4th Officer Boxhall

Very elegant-looking

Prettiest side profile

Awwww look at him at the life buoy🥺🥺🥺

Oooooh he’s from Hull

Give him hugs and kisses🥺

5th Officer Lowe

LOOK AT THIS GOOD BOI

MUST TRY NOT TO PET

awww poor little boi who was ignored on the ship when it collided with the iceberg 😭😭😭

this man got the amount of fans that he deserved

I totally agree with the amount of fangirls for movie Lowe tbh

Ahhhhhh is he the best boi🥺🥺

Let me pet him

LET. ME. PET.

6th Officer Moody

Oooooh he’s from Scarborough, think I’ve passed through his hometown when I took the train to Edinburgh

AWWWW LOOK AT THIS SWEET BABY

Poor young man who has sacrificed his life for others 😢

Please protecc him

PROTECC HIM AT ALL COSTS

He’s a Yorkshire boi, that’s why he got tea with him, period.

I will do a another one with the Marconi duo (Jack Philips & Harold Bride) and other crew members (including Thomas Andrews) if anyone wants a part 2!
