File:EVERYBODY DO THE FLOP (asdfmovie song)

“	And the week begins as it tends to do with a monday... And the week is over as it tends to do with a sunday...	”
―Tom's "Last Week" catchphrase

Thomas James Ridgewell (born: June 27, 1990 (1990-06-27)), better known online as TomSka, is a British YouTuber, comedian, producer, and director living in London. He also is the uploader of a popular series called asdfmovie.

About

Tom has two channels: TomSka and DarkSquidge. His TomSka channel focuses on him making sketch comedy with other YouTubers and is mainly known for the asdfmovie series. There are 10 movies in the series so far, not including the deleted scenes. While making videos for YouTube, Tom almost got kicked out of The University of Lincoln for posting a parody of the university's advert. This was because of the inappropriate content shown in the video, but he was forgiven when they saw the view count. Tom's TomSka channel has over 5,100,000 subscribers and 1.1 billion views and is where he uploads the sketches and animations he has directed. Tom's second channel DarkSquidge channel has gained over 830,000 subscribers and over 120,000,000 views since he created it in 2007. This channel is mainly used for his weekly vlog Last Week since it started on 2016, but also uploaded other vlogs and a series of unreleased videos that didn't quite make the cut called Scrap'd Week.

Eddsworld

In 2003, Tom met then 14-year-old Edd Gould online. He and Edd started to produce an animated series called "Eddsworld" around 2005. Later on, in 2006, he became the main voice of his character in the series, along with Edd and two of Edd's other friends, who together made the cast of 4 main characters, Tom, Edd, Matt, and Tord. They found success in this series and they become an icon on Newgrounds and YouTube; the series took a rapid turn when in 2012 Edd died of Leukaemia and Tom took over the production of Eddsworld until 2016.
