Here are the labelled crew members for those interested!

And yet Franklin was no Ross. Franklin had decided to act as a manager and delegate all the tasks, so he cultivated his officers and forged pseudo-intimate friendships.

And there's no going to the Erebus for some respite as last time...

Forever obsessed with baby James Clark Ross, whilst getting into costume as Corinna, having a major corset malfunction backstage and the event being commemorated in verse in the expedition's gazette.
