Geek chic.

Wore this to work today. Director of my department saw it, said "I like the jacket with the TARDIS - that's cool." "Did you see what it says?" I asked. "Oh... *laugh* that's so true." "Yeah, my wife got it for me." "Cool!"






Personally, I think the jacket makes it. ;)

The first Doctor Who I can remember seeing was, I believe, The Three Doctors. I think I remember the First Doctor being in it, but I'm also pretty positive it was in color. (Well, that really-washed-out-color that was standard mid-century BBC fare.) I was pretty young, and it was about 2am, so my memory is cloudy...

I think Tom Baker was the first one I have even semi-clear memories of, (although it may have been a Pertwee episode before that... I don't know which one I saw first...) and Eccleston was the first one I watched regularly.

I need that shirt. That's a great picture.

Weirdly enough, my first Doctor was, well, Barbara Benedetti. But the first real episode I saw was also, coincidentally, The Three Doctors.

Figures that even your first Doctor was from fandom... :D

Doesn't it just? That's a huge reason I want to make my fan film -- my first exposure to Doctor Who was not that it was something you watch, but something you do.

Oh yeah, I know a lot of people who have had that reaction. Mostly women, of course, although there seems to be quite a disparity between the Tennant and Eccleston groups, and...



Oh I'm sorry, you said some*thing*, not some*one*. My bad. :D
