Biography

Post-Regeneration

While on Karn the Eighth Doctor was left broken and filled with guilt after seeing the dead body of his companion Henrick. This made the Doctor realize that the Sisterhood were right and that he couldn't live in a guilt-stricken body, and after paying tribute to his companions, the Doctor regenerated into his next incarnation. (TV: The Last Night)

After regenerating, the Doctor began suffering from amnesia. He was then taken into the TARDIS by Grace and managed to take off.

Personality

To be added.

Physical Appearance

According to Grace Holloway, the Eighth Doctor looked like a man in his mid-thirties. (PROSE: Revenge of the Master) Sammy Thompson thought "his long face was angular, with a jutting chin and aristocratic nose, but it was softened by a mass of dark brown hair that swept back down all the way from his high forehead to his broad shoulders". (PROSE: The Castle that Time Forgot) He weighed approximately 180 pounds, notably less than his previous incarnation (TV: Revenge of the Master).

Grooming and hair

The Doctor had long, wavy hair after his regeneration, (TV: Revenge of the Master) but, after some time travelling with Grace, he had his wavy hair cut short. (TV: The Forest of the Dead). He latter grew out his hair again after she died (TV: The Castle that Time Forgot). Towards the end of his life he cut his hair short again (TV: Here We Go Again).

Clothing

Main attires

The Doctor found a Wild Bill Hickok costume in the TARDIS wardrobe. Though he discarded the hat and gunbelt, he kept the long bottle-green velvet frockcoat, high collared white dress shirt, floppy battleship grey cravat with a bronze pin, greyish-green high-waist trousers, and six buttoned silky waistcoat with a golden pocket watch. (TV: Revenge of the Master) He also took to wearing question mark-fashioned boxer shorts, (PROSE: Seeing I; COMIC: The Glorious Dead) and would occasionally discard the cravat and leave his top buttons undone (TV: The Forest of the Dead, Doomwraiths, The Nightmare of Time etc...)

After the death of Grace, sometimes in place of a cravat, he wore an ascot in a ruffled bundle, coloured in flaxen yellow, (TV: The Castle that Time Forgot) eggplant purple, (TV: A Case for the Blue Box) or midnight blue. (TV: Wallpaper) While doing this, he did not fully button his shirt which was meant to hold his neckband accessories, instead having the points of the collar drooped across his shoulders as he left it open-necked and wore the ascot crookedly on his own uncovered neck.

The Doctor had replacement jackets, (PROSE: The Bodysnatchers) made for him by a tailor on Savile Row in 1892. (PROSE: Genocide, Seeing I)

The Doctor varied the colour scheme of his costume, such as wearing a dark blue frockcoat, a purple waistcoat, an yellow cravat, mauve trousers, (TV: The Return of Nimon) a dark purple cravat, (COMIC: Descendance).

Other Information

To be added.

Behind the Scenes

Paul McGann cut his hair severely shorter than his audition for the role of The Doctor. Thus a wig was hastily made for his first season. Paul McGann hated wearing the wig so he requested The Doctor to have short hair in his second season and eventually grow his hair back over time. Stephan Garwood and other production members agreed.
