no no no no no no
Apparently the BBC have changed the Eighth Doctor's costume for all future promotional images.
Assuming this is true and wasn't Paul McGann's little joke: NO. JUST NO.
The Eighth Doctor's clothes--his ridiculous, old-fashioned, foppish velvet coat and waistcoat and cravat--are indicative of his character. He wouldn't be the same in a boring, cheap-looking "naval jacket" and a courier bag. NOT EVERY INCARNATION OF THE DOCTOR NEEDS TO BE HIP AND MODERN, BBC.
Yes, I am having nerd!rage about this.
