The only seven reactions you need to Jim Broadbent’s very strange sculptures
We know that famous people are still just people, and that they can have strange hobbies – just like the rest of us can, but we weren’t quite prepared for the creative hobby of the brilliant actor, Jim Broadbent.
#ThrowbackThursday #TBT to our 2015 #SCFestivalofLove when actor #JimBroadbent exhibited his 'People' the amazing carved figures that he creates in his shed. Did you see them? pic.twitter.com/09Wp9SlKNg

Let’s take a closer look at those, shall we?
Of course, Jim obviously has an amazing skill – and more time on his hands than we would have suspected alongside his acting career, but those are some disturbing figures, and Twitter has reacted.

This looks like a still from a Doctor Who episode that the BBC had to apologise for airing after it was declared too scary for children. https://t.co/pMlQEEk2SJ

I saw Jim Broadbent trending and was afraid he had died. The truth is much, much darker. Look away… while you still can.

Twitter genius, @twlldun, spotted another factor.
I genuinely love the way his look to camera is as disturbing as the carvings. https://t.co/RPzs1PFkKO
