TARDIS Tuesday - Jodie Whittaker- the new 13th Doctor

Hi there!

Today, I have survived two performances at the church for our annual Carol service for KS2.  This year was the first time we had to split it into two in order to fit all the children in so it was double the amount of work. I was very pleased it went so well! Readers, singers, recorders and drummers were all impeccable!

Today's TARDIS Tuesday is a little sad for me.  In a week, Peter Capaldi will no longer be the Doctor. I have loved his grumpy, intense rendition of the Doctor and liked his being older.  As of next week, we shall have a female Doctor, played by Jodie Whittaker. She has been given a great costume!!!

I decided to have a go at dressing up as the Thirteenth Doctor.
Key features are the teal culottes, navy rainbow-striped jumper, long light coat with rainbow piping and navy interior, mustard braces, brown boots and blue stripy socks.


Here's my rendition.

I found my Culottes on ASOS but I was shocked when they arrived because they were soooo long that they looked like trousers! I had to roll them up!
The socks were part of CBC's 2012 Olympics Closing Ceremony costume- I swiped them when he was trying to chuck them out!  My boots are Dr Martens which I bought a few months ago for an amazing second hand but new price!


I found some braces on eBay for £2 but they are driving me insane! How do you get them to stay on!??!!   The t-shirt is from Pull and Bear but was also second-hand.  Finally, this beige coat was£1..99 from a Barnados a few months ago. I actually bought it for a 5th Doctor costume, but thought it could work here also.
I'm looking forward to more Doctor Who and I am intrigued to see how it will be with a female Doctor.

What do you think?
Does this work?

  1. I think you did great at duplicating the outfit. I'm always amazed at how you come up with almost identical outfits time and time again. Well done...

    You must be so pleased at how well he kids performed and also you must be so proud of them. I'm proud of you for how well you taught them. Job well done. I give you an A.
    Hugs, Julia

  3. I do like the new Doctor Who's outfit and you've done a cracking job interpreting it.
    You and Jon are shoe twins - his were £3!

  5. Perfect, as always. You're sooo good at this!

  6. Well done! To keep the braces on, you can loop a piece of string/yarn through the tops and tie it behind your neck. People may notice if they really look but you say, oh, that's part of the design! Hahaha. I love that they have a new female Doctor. I hope she doesn't disappoint.

  9. Great job copying her outfit! I love Peter Capaldi but am excited to have Jodie and a new showrunner. Maybe we won't have so many plotholes now. (Orson Pink still bothers me!)
