Dr Who knows kilts rule

[Jock Scot]

At least in the other photos Tennant is doing his own quirky takes on kiltwearing.

There are no great choices for me among his various outfits, but I think I prefer quirkiness over the straight-from-the-hire-shop look in the Original Post.

To my old and traditional eye and in my humble opinion the "kilt hire shop" look is without doubt the absolute worst kilt attire look that is possible to have.

I have to agree with that.

By the way I was initially of two minds about what this thread was going to be about due to its ambiguous title, the reading of which depends on which missing words are imagined to be implied:

Dr Who knows that kilts rule over other sorts of clothing.

Dr Who knows the kilts rule that others don't know about.

Forgive me if I am wrong but I seem to recall that Doctor Who had a companion in an early series who wore a kilt in a number of episodes. I think the character was called Jamie. So Doctor Who is familiar with kilts. I do not recall any controversy then (mid 1960s).

yes Jamie McCrimmon was with the second doctor, I don't think he ever wore anything else. That and I seem to recall Lethbridge Steward wore one at least once.

Nice vintage Black Watch sergeants/officers/pipers sporran there! Though an odd choice for a Dr Who costume, seems to me.

The Brig wore a kilt and highland attire in the 4th Doctor series “Terror of the Zygons” (though it was a civilian outfit , not a military one) and the good Doctor sported a balmoral bonnet.
