Costume Revealed - BBC Breakfast 8:45 Tomorrow!

Second_doctor.jpg
at least Matts trousers are not that high, the 2nd Doctor could give Simon Cowell a run for his money in that department
 
On PBS "Blink" was showing. The "Confidential" was Tennant visiting BBC studios. He interviewed Moffat and Moffat said his foundest memories were of Troughton.

Maybe Smith's costume is evoking his childhood.
 
Is this really the work of the Steven Moffat who gave us "Blink"? :(

:guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw::guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw:

The day Moffat was announced as the new showrunner, I knew people would eventually start lamenting something like that the instant he made a decision they didn't like.

As for me...

It's okay. It doesn't rock my world, but it's not awful, either. I tend to prefer that the Doctor look a little rougher, a little more down to Earth -- my favorite Doctor costume is the Ninth Doctor's (just like Nine is my favorite Doctor). But this isn't awful, either. It does convey a sense of eccentricity and of age even in a very young body.

If that's what the TARDIS is going to look like in Series Five, though, I have to say I think it looks rubbish. The current TARDIS prop is perfect.

It's awful! It sucks! Bloody rubbish! Off to a terrible start! Moffat is ruining the show! MOFFAT YOU HACK! YOUR BEST DAYS ARE BEHIND YOU, YOU HAS-BEEN! WATCH 'BLINK' AGAIN TO LEARN HOW IT'S REALLY DONE!

I can't wait until the episodes actually air to see the reactions then.
 
DW Fandom: it never disappoints

Like I am any better ;)

I wonder if this Doctor should be musical, Ten cleary wasnt, should 11 have quiet moments where he sits playing a flute which helps him thinking. (hang on im just giving 11 the personality I think 2 has)

I thought Outpost Gallifrey was dead. ;)
 
Ouch! Seems like a very lackluster start for the new Doc... :(

How so?

Few seem to like the new outfit.

So you base your opinion on the opinions of others?

All I'm really seeing are that people aren't hooting and hollering over it, and why should they be? Like I said, none of the other Doctor's costumes have been anything outlandish at all. They're all things you can essentially see someone in everyday life wearing. 15' long scarves, celery and ??????? everywhere, this is not.
 
I like it. Typical Doctor outfit, relatable to the classic fans and JUST out of place enough in the modern day.

The only thing IMO that would make this outfit complete would be a vest, which he'd be able to wear with the coat on or off. Even so, this will do quite nicely. We only now need to see him in action. Come on, March/April 2010!

I could see that. After all, the Ninth had different shirts he wore under his coat, the Tenth had various suits, different colored shoes, etc.

In the immortal words of author Keith R.A. DeCandido: "Never mistake a few people bitching on the Internet for a trend."

Indeed. I'm guessing that there are a lot of folk who will like it. I certainly do. But then my favorite Doctor is still Troughton. I'd love it if 11 was a younger/older version of 2.

Zombie Dr Who fans!

Outpost gallifrey's users all wear a neural relay. Don't be frightened of their data ghosts
