Oh so it's not Pompeii. Someone told me it was Pompeii. I kept thinking of the Sybaline sisterhood which the 10th Doctor knew very well.

Yes, they were originally introduced in The Brain of Morbius, but I think sjsharksfan39 means in the current show. We've only seen them in this prologue and Night of the Doctor mini-sode, but not a regular episode.
Completely agree, street magician over stage magician any day!
Eh, I really dislike the informal, "hanging around the house" attire. Easily the worst attire for any Doctor. He looks like he's getting ready to stay home and watch some TV, not save the universe. His more formal attire, on the other hand, is really cool, and actually looks like something The Doctor would wear. The clothes aren't a deal breaker or anything, but the more he wears real Doctor-like attire, the better.
I think you know which one that actually is, even if you have professed a certain... fondness for it.
I also prefer his formal attire. The contrast of colours, especially the red, really makes it look sharp.
Hey, at least the coat is something unique, and you can argue that an alien has different tastes than humans (Timelords in general have very stupid formal address). You look at the 6th Doctor, and he stands out. The 12th Doctor's weird informal attire is just generic clothes he could buy at Wal-Mart to wear when he's eating breakfast on a Saturday morning.
Also, just because you hate the coat doesn't make it the worst costume, that's why people have different opinions. Give me a flashy, unique costume over stuff the average guy has in their own closet any day of the week. He's The Doctor, he's not supposed to dress like a human on their day off.
That's the reason why I don't like Nine's outfit. There's nothing unique about it.
Nine's outfit didn't blow my mind, but I think it looks decent enough. I mean, I don't expect every Doctor to dress like a magician or wear a cape and frilly shirts or wear a bow tie, I just think the 12th Doctor's informal get up is WAY too casual human for the ancient time traveling alien.
Nine's outfit is my second favorite, after Ten's blue outfit - complete with the iconic trenchcoat.
An intentional choice by Capaldi. He wanted his costume to be something fans could mimic cheaply and easily.
Ten's blue suit is my second favourite, minus the trench coat. I felt like it took away from the eye-popping colour of the suit.
On this subject, I must say that I love kirk5555's photo profile. I wouldn't want to see Nine wear it for real, but I love the manipulation.
I'm in the camp that likes Twelve's hoodie/sparkly shirt combo more than the formal magician look, but the latter looks better with the new Hartnell-esque pants.
Yeah, I thought it was cool when I found the original pic online. I also have 8th, 11th and 12th variations that I'll probably end up using as Avatars eventually
Well, it definitely doesn't make for a good Doctor costume, regardless of the reason
