Right, back to my usual schedule of rewatching and thinking way too much about random shit.

Do you think it means anything, the slightly differing levels of formality with which Franklin and Crozier refer to each other in their first scenes?

-

I feel like Crozier is the more distant and formal of the two, even if only slightly:

"Tell Mr. Diggle Sir John and Commander Fitzjames are coming aboard to dine tonight."

Whereas Franklin is more casual in his use of first names:

"Let Francis know James and I will be joining him for dinner."

-

Could mean nothing I suppose. Just something I noticed just now.

It's rank. Officers generally refer to other similarly-ranked or lower-ranked officers by their first name. Hence, franklin referring to francis as "francis". But francis is alluding to his senior officer, so he refers to him as "sir john". The "commander fitzjames" bit was just for consistency and to avoid the phrase "sir john and james", all while hinting at some animosity in their relationship.

This is also why francis sounds so rude in the command meeting in episode 1. When he says "hear me, john...", he was very obviously setting aside rank.

Same reason for why francis bristles at being called his first name by james. Technically he outranks james and should be called "captain crozier", but james is "captain" of the flagship and thus perceives themselves as equals. The disregard for protocol is starker when franklin dies, because by then francis becomes "senior officer and expedition commander" and james has lost the little loophole that allows him to ignore francis' rank. and so we get the "you'll call me what i'm due to be called" scene.

I keep imagining James telling Francis that he was born in Rio de Janeiro, and Francis being like “uh, wait a minute. In 1813?” And James saying “yeah, you know I was born in 1813, what?” And then Francis is all like “oh, Christ, James, I was IN Rio in 1813, serving in the navy,” and spends like two days being super awkward about their age difference.

A full reincarnation AU with Crozier and Jopson as modern day archeologists returning to King William Island to bring home their dead? This baby's got it all!
