Wednesday, 14 August 2013  Costume suggestions for the 12th
Doctor  So, it's been a little under two weeks since Peter
Capaldi was announced as the 12th Doctor in the BBC's long-
running sci-fi favourite, Doctor Who. Already guesses are being
made as to what kind of Doctor he'll be, how he'll work with
Jenna Coleman, and what direction the show will take as a whole.
But, for me, there is one important question, the answer to
which I think will dictate how his portrayal develops and is
received more than anything else: what is he going to wear?
Matt Smith and David Tennant, both in David Tennant's costume
I've only seen New Who episodes (2005 onwards) but I still know
that when a changeover of actors occurs, then whoever is
assuming the role looks quite weird in their predecessor's
clothes. Usually their character doesn't fully take shape until
the Doctor has chosen a new outfit from the tremendous wardrobe
in the TARDIS.  So what might be appropriate for the new Doctor?
Allow me to make a few suggestions...
