Tom Ryan
Profession:	Home Office special ops leader
Appearances:	Series 1 (death)
Actor/Actress:	Mark Wakeling

Captain Tom Ryan was the head of the Home Office special ops team. He assisted Claudia Brown and the rest of the anomaly team by being the "brute force". He went on many missions into the Anomaly due to his experience as an army officer in the Gulf War. He preferred gunning down the creatures with his M4, rather than saving them. He said to Nick Cutter that he was beginning to feel like a social worker when he was relieved that they were allowed to kill the Future Predator (Episode 1.6). He was killed by the female Predator who was protecting her young who had followed the team into the Permian era that had already killed a soldier (Episode 1.6). The dead body that Ryan had seen in the Permian was actually him in the past (Episodes 1.6 and 1.1).

He is good at aiming a gun at the creatures and he uses a very sleek modified M4 S-System with a dot sight on top.
