Stood in front of a wind machine to fully expose his
crimson flaps, this week saw the reveal of Peter Capalderdash's costume for the
currently being filmed series 8 of Doctor Who.
The costume has met with more of a meh than a yeah, with a fanbase used
to such fashion decisions as fez's, eighteen foot scarves and salad based accessories.
When the actor famous for playing stiff bureaucrats and
shouthy villains graces our screens later in the year, he'll be dressed in what
seems to be Charlie Chaplin's tramp costume with its tight chest hugging
jacket, and trousers which seem to have got the science wrong and are bigger on
the outside!.
This bland awkward fitting costume combined with the pose
of Hollywood Paul Daniels impersonator David Copperfield gives us more clues about
the twelfth Doctor's persona than the dramatic Capaldeyes scene from Day of the
Doctor. A scene seen by many fans as the
highlight of the 50th anniversary special!
