I can not tell you how much that made me squee on a really really shit day.

Thank you.

I'm having a moment of watching everything I've been trying to work for and wanted go pouring down the drain. I'm on the verge of losing my house, and my child, and everything I have, after working so hard to keep it because of the economy. So thank you for this bright spot.

In what looks like Jack's coat, no less. YUM. (trying not to write Eleven/Jack "reparations" slash in my head, now.)

At about the 2 minute mark the hair on my neck stood up because DAMN after being The Weird Kid Who Read Weird Shit (over 40 years ago) it was like sweet sweet candy.

It was this video that they showed at the end of Gally that made me write my wistful DW post the other day. It's astounding, right?

Maybe it's Steven Moffat who has the thing about coats - Jack, Ten, Eleven, Sherlock. Though I believe this coat is Matt Smith's own idea of what the Doctor might wear.

That was the first thing I noticed too! And you definitely shouldn't write the slash in your head, write it on the computer so we can read it!

I love that clip and wish I'd been there to see it live.

I caught it late night on the BBC after Glastonburyn but was unable to record it... but this way I can keep a full copy - thank you

and yes, the coat is definitely 'borrowed' from Captain Jack, I'd say

Funnily enough, it isn't. I mean, the coat is his own, but when they were working out the Doctor's costume they were apparently going for a pirate-y kind of thing (possibly with a similar coat), and Matt hated it. It was him who wanted the bow tie, and the tweed jacket is his too.

(Random comment is random.)

hmm, I don't see the coat as part of a pirate costume, I'll have to hunt up the reference I'm thinking of.

here it is, from an interview in the Mirror before s5 started: "Matt, who also created the Time Lord's new look of tweed jackets and bow ties, admitted he is hoping to add an overcoat to his wardrobe He said: "Originally I was going to have a black leather coat or a blue swashbuckling coat and possibly a hat too but, somewhere along the line, the idea got dropped. I hope it's revived in time for series two." I don't think he's worn the coat on the show itself, just for promo stuff, but we've seen a lot of hats LOL.
