The 13th Doctor's new costume has been revealed as seen in the picture above. It seems to be a mix of previous Doctor's, the coat from Tennant, the stripes from Tom Baker's famous scarf and the braces from Matt Smith.
Now as my regular readers will no I'm not a fan of the idea of having a female Doctor so you shouldn't be too surprised that I have found a way to rant about this as well. Why would the Doctor, someone who has lived for 2195 years suddenly decide to wear make-up and have their ears pierced. It is too gender stereotyped and something I thought the BBC wouldn't go down. The Doctor himself has said that Time Lord society was way above gender stereotypes, which he obviously doesn't believe because when he regenerates he decides now is the time to put on make-up and have her ears pierced. The Doctor is someone who never does things, always has things on his to do list, why would put make up on every adventure she goes on. I dunno - my hopes aren't high for the next series - it will just rattle my cage.
What do I think of the costume? I think it's odd but then that's what its meant to be. Personally I don't mind, I don't think its great, nor bad. I do think that Jodie Whitakker is going to get hot in that coat though.
