man of 1000 hats

[kindkit]

Have another picture of Christopher Neame in an astonishing hat. This one's from "Shada," the unaired 1980 Doctor Who story written by Douglas Adams:






And here's the whole outfit for your delectation.




Appropriately enough, when I uploaded the first image, the Captcha read "kiss me." Why yes, pretty boy in a ridiculously camp outfit. Yes, I will.

I'm beginning to suspect that there was a conspiracy of costumers to put Christopher Neame into outrageous clothes. ("Pssst, you'll never guess what we've done to him this time!")

No really, what the hell is he wearing?

What every would-be space tyrant wears in Doctor Who from this era, pretty much. He might look slightly less incongruous if he hadn't just time-travelled (or something--I haven't actually watched the serial yet) to Cambridge in 1980. Later he does put on a less conspicuous and therefore much less fun outfit.
