What did the Doctor order?

The first image of the Twelfth Doctor in his costume is here!




Personally I'm seeing a very Third Doctor vibe here, it really is like a modern updating of the Jon Pertwee-era costumes, and that's no bad thing. Pertwee is an action-man Doctor, sort of a James Bond figure with his gadgets and martial arts. Also, there's a hint of the Roger Delgado version of The Master here too, it's the fact that it's a dark/pretty much black suit with the jacket's red lining - very Master-esque. It certainly made me smile to see it and really makes me look forward to seeing what Peter Capaldi is like as the Doctor. Darker? More harsh? Hartnell used to wear a suit, and Capaldi's collar is very Hartnell. I feel like there'll be plenty of Hartnell in his portrayal, yet he'll be all Capaldi, because Capaldi is really throwing himself into this, he is a lifelong Who fan after all. A modern twist on a classic? That sounds like just what the doctor ordered ;)
