- Alright, this took me about 9 months longer than I planned, but here we are. I'm using a new camera and haven't quite figured out how to use the focus properly so sorry my face is a bit out-of-focus at times.
(Do not be fooled by the Goku pictures, I know nothing about anime, those are not mine)

Fun fact: reportedly Peter Davison wound up wearing Colin's more open-fitted version of the cricket suit when he returned for Time Crash.
I actually like the 6th doctor’s outfit. It’s so iconically batshit, with this weird mad hatter vibe about it. An eccentric look for probably the most eccentric doctor
If they’d restricted it to yellow and red + white plaid for the shirt it could have worked much better but unlike most I think that a ‘louder than life’ wardrobe perfectly suited the louder than life version of the ‘80’s Doctor. I think Baker’s idea of ‘black velvet’ was totally wrong for his confident and very alien interpretation of the Doctor.
The reason Davison wore different shoes is because the boots where from Bakers personal wardrobe if I remember correctly. So Bake just kind of walked out with the boots and after that they realised the boots where gone and they had to improvise.
I wouldn’t say they had to improvise. Those socks and shoes were the original pieces of costume that June designed for the costume, it’s just that Tom Baker hated them, so he just started coming in with his boots.
@@BronyDanProductions Fiona Cumming said in the DVD commentary that the continuity error was down to the script mentioning shoes rather boots so no one thought to check.
He did have the boots when he first regenerated
@@kmartradio that's true because that scene was shot as part of the story Tom was still part of, but for castravalva he wasn't so the boost were not available one has to assume.
ADAM ADAMANT LIVES MENTIONED!

Undestated is a very fitting word for that coat. It was unique and that makes it really good in my opinion.
Loving this video so far
I love the Sixth Doctor's costume and the fact the designer made it to show what it SHOULDN'T be is just the cherry on top. also your 80's look is gorgeous
The part about when the 4th Doctor regenerates into the 5th Doctor and his boots change it shoes, there is an out universe explaination. Those boots actually belonged to Tom Baker.
That would make a lot of sense! Thanks for the addition!
@@astralarmadillo Yeah the shoes and tall socks were the original intention and was even used in the first serial of season 18, the Leisure Hive, but after that Tom switched to the boots
@@Steven_AndreyechenHe actually wore them in three stories that season! Leisure Hive, like you mentioned, but also Meglos and State of Decay, at which point they realised it wasn't the best look and brought back the boots. I'm kinda hoping with how eccentric Ncuti's style is, we might get a revival of tall boots like those someday
3rd and 4th Doctors have my favorite classic who wardrobes. Death to the Daleks has my favorite look for 3 and City of Death has my favorite look for 4. Great video, looking forward to more!
Your voice is like ASMR. It's lovely. Also, great video :)
36:48 Imagine if he'd gotten his preferred black outfit and The Mysterious Planet chapter of Trial of a Time Lord was properly lit to fit the gothic farce the writers intended, instead of the bright and over-lit London Underground and outside shots.
Peters wearing the shoes in Castrovalva because when Tom left they lost the boots. They apparently just hoped no one would notice, which worked at the time but not so much now. (No idea where I heard this so i guess just take my word for it)
absolutely loved the video, i love seeing other small creators put sooooo much effort into their videos, it's inspiring me to do the same honestly
this is a really intresting video essay so far. i've been burned by low quality video essays about dr who before, since everyone with a camera and an opinion thinks they can make one . but nah this one is actually pretty good. actual well researched information and production history, not just *repeat generic opinions without any substaniation and add already well known info* you get across the fandom. good job
I like 8th doctor costume
Well this might be the best introduction to classic doctor who outfits! This is the kind of video I've been wanting for the longest time and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
This was an amazing video (although quiet) I hope you do do a part 2 with the new who doctors
the outfits of the show are only outshined by the outfits you ware in the video. Dragon ball Z cosplay next perhaps???? curious who you think would win in a fight. The doctor or Future trunks. i believe this deserves another 2 hour video essay. as it takes that long to let people know all the ways goku would beat them both
Great video, clear to see that a lot of effort has gone into this! Keep it up!
Great video; thank you so much for sharing! As a mod, historian and Whovian, I really enjoyed this. I'd also be super interested in seeing your thoughts on the various companion outfits throughout the years.
Great video!
But the first time I saw this video my brain thought the title was "depressing the Doctor"
Remember to turn your volume back down after watching.
Hi, Fellow Bioware/RPG fan and a Doctor Who fan (as well as costume design). You probably know this, but there is some VA crossover with Bioware's Dragon Age franchise (heavily recommend, if you like Mass Effect and Baldur’s Gate). From Doctor who, the actress who plays Tallulah plays Cassandra in the third game, and from Torchwood, Eve Myles (Gwen) plays a companion in the second game, and Gareth David-Lloyd is a major character in the 3rd. Not really relevant, but a fun fact.
For Doctor costumes, 4's is the most iconic, of course, though I love the Victorian-ness of Eight. Six is one I flip back and forth on. It's ugly, but he pulls it off more than most.
A wonderful video - really enjoyed it👏💯
Re, the continuity error with Davison's shoes instead of boots in Castrovalva.
Director Fiona Cumming put it down to the script - the script mentioned that the Doctor leaves one of his shoes as a marker point in the TARDIS - it didn't occur to them that he'd been wearing boots.
Also designer Colin Lavers's original ideas for the 5th Doctor's look were a bigger deviation for the established period look. He thought combat trousers, converse boots and a fighter pilot jacket over a cricket jumper.
First time I have seen a deep dive into the costuming for The Doctor and I love it.
Though, I think the audio from the mic is about 20% of what it should be. It's pretty quiet on my end and I'm not sure if that's intentional
Absolutely fantastic video, looking forward to part two! Btw the first doctor isn't wearing a frock coat, it's just a long double-breasted lounge jacket. Despite what a lot of sources say. And his trousers are houndstooth not tartan
I have all of my volume sliders and knobs turned up to max but I still can't make out a word said in this video. Thank you for having this properly subtitled instead of auto-captioned.
This was a great video! So relaxed but engaging and I learned a lot! Thank you for this 😊
Davison’s appearance in _Grantchester_ was basically the Fifth Doctor’s _actual_ period-accurate look 👍
fantastic video again! wanna see the fashion history of Akira Toriyama's Dragon ball and Dragon Ball Z.next!
I mean Bulma has like a gazillion different outfits.
Your level of research is truly astonishing!
I would love it if you did a video like this for the companions if you don’t mind
This video is amazing. I’ve always wanted to see production stuff about doctor who and this is exactly what Ive been looking for.
I really enjoyed this video thank you
Absolutely fascinating! You've outdone yourself once again!
The designers of who were always influenced by current fashion. Seeing young designers using fashion choices from the past current fad for 80’s and getting them wrong. The 6th Doctor suit choice was a flash for a moment. But contemporary designers had held it up as an 80’s classic is laughably
Out of curiosity, how would YOU dress the Doctor?
Holy yay, a new video!!
this is actually so helpful, im writing smth and need a new design and this greatly helped :D
Wow loving the background, you definitely need to make a dragon ball z video next, given that it features so promently on the wall I assume you must know all about it 😁😁
I'm going to do a video on how good I think the live action dragon ball movie is just to annoy you

Love the videos!
Frist doctor coat more of a morning coat then a frock coat
Very interesting video! I've looked up off bits about some of the costumes in the past (particularly Davison's, because 5 is my personal fave ^^) but I'd not looked completely in-depth like this. Hopefully you do manage to do the New Who/Newer Who Doctors!
You have a very relaxing voice
Awesome and interesting video! ☺️ I’d love to see more Doctor Who content from you!
the dark eyes jacket and screwdriver were made by weta workshop
Interesting video! Had to jack up my volume as the mic seems a bit quiet.
I want a replica of 6's coat made of different Pride flags.
I never noticed 1's different costume in the Pilot until this video, go figure
Great vid
part 2!!!!!!
Awesome video
Great video lots of new things and definitely makes me excited for the future of the show with the increased costuming for 15's seasons. Have to say 6 has an absolutely terrible costume and the blue rendition is a far superior variant, although that yellow redesign you showed is growing on me :)
Might just be me, might not, but I swear your voice in this video is a hair above a whisper, and hard to hear even with headphones. Great video otherwise!
Thank you - I was a little worried the sound was a bit quiet. Sound always seems to be a big issue for me so I'll keep trying until I get it right!
Totally irrelevant, but last year I went on a couple of dates with a girl who looked exactly like you except she had black curly hair but she also loved Doctor Who. So watching this video was informative but also slightly weird

I did really like this video, I'm kinda broke though so I'll try to manifest you coffee 😜
The topic of this video is very interesting. It's a shame I cannot hear anything you're saying. My audio is cranked to 100%, and you're audio is so low that it's almost inaudible. You gotta crank that mic up.
my volume is at 100 and I can still barely hear you. Idk why you are whispering but you need to stop you still need to project your voice when talking into a microphone
1. Volume at 33% for me. No issues - get your hearing checked?
2. Don’t be a dick - another case of a man “telling”, aggressively, a woman what to do.
@@NCR5309 maybe people should learn to not whisper
Also quiet sexist of you to be like oh "classic case of a man blah blah"
