Edwin Helpman is a minor character in AMC's The Terror. He is the clerk in charge on HMS Terror.
In The Show[]
He first appears in episode 1 having dinner with the other officers of Terror. He then appears in the background during Cornelius Hickey's lashing in episode 4. In episode 5, Crozier mentions to his steward Thomas Jopson that Helpman like most of Terror's crew, had moved over to Erebus. He isn't seen with the crew in April, 1848, so that could possibly mean he burned to death at Carnivale.
