The Tennanth Doctor is in - and his style has certainly gotten eccentric! The photo call is in, and we get a look at David Tennant as the tenth Doctor, his strange attire, and Rose's muted duds as well.

Pretty tame....no question marks or anything.

I really liked Eccleston's rough & tumble leather look. This one harkens back to the classics of the first couple doctors, and is slowly starting to grow on me. It's quite the contrast, to be sure.

As for the question marks, We've gone three doctors now without 'em. Accept it! It's done! [Smile]

Well, at least pin some vegetable on the lapel.

Something to make the outfit look less store-bought!
Fuck- timelords are reduced to shopping at Sears now?

Maybe Ty Pennington can give the TARDIS a much needed Home Makeover...Timelord edition of course.

Only two, unless you're counting Tennant as the third.

I'm also not getting how you can see Hartnell's sophisticated English gent in this get-up. I can see Troughton's hobo/mad homeless bloke style in there though.

I don't mind it, although only have two buttons done up does annoy the acorns out of me, for some reason.

Well, McCoy finished his term without question. [Wink]

Fan reaction on other boards has been generally positive. The Doc always wore something that could be considered eccentric by contemporary standards; even Hartnell's Edwardian outfit was out of date for an old guy in the 1960s. Tennant's 1970s pinstripe suit is IMO *just* enough out of place for 2006 to look wierd, but not *too* wierd for a 30-something guy rooting around London... The sneakers rather seal it, though. Perhaps more Troughton than Pertwee or Hartnell, whose outfits at least matched; but eccentric nonetheless.

Stephen Fry is going to write an episode, I hear.

And Anthony Stewart Head is going to be in one.

For reference, someone's made a full-length comparison of each Doctor's hallmark outfit.

Still fits in, I say. Give Tennant a decent pair of shoes, and I'm sold. [Smile]
