but, you know, just look at Tom Baker: what an amazingly unique and fascinating looking man he has always been. He'd look cool in anything.
Here’s a thing, pw - you talk about Tom Baker being cool in anything. The Tom Baker outfit is, basically, the scarf. That's it. I think maybe the various jackets he wore were provided by BBC. But the rest of it was his own clothes, and it changed from story to story. However, when John Nathan-Turner took over as producer, he had the idea that each Doctor and each recurring character should have their own set costume - for marketing purposes or some numpty-headed piece of reasoning like that - so then you’ve got Peter Davidson wearing the same pair of trousers for years on end, Tegan always wearing the same air hostess uniform week after week after week, Adric always in the same jumper and badge combo.... suddenly, no-one ever changed their clothes. And so it was until the series died.
The Eccleston doctor had his jacket, but that was it as far as it went. He changed his shirt, y’know. So, I'm kinda hoping this suit + plimsoles thing will just be a general look, rather than the one and only suit he ever wears. After all, nobody wants a stinky Doctor.
In other news. K9! Sarah-Jane! My God, that is genius. |
