Hi y'all!
I am returning to an old favourite for TARDIS Tuesday. An old favourite that was never quite right!
I have attempted this outfit 3 times. In 2022, 2019 and 2017.
It was worn by the wonderful Mary Tamm who played our first ever companion Time Lady who travelled with the Doctor in the TARDIS in the role of Romana. She joined for a 6 episode season entitled The Key to Time. I really like these six stories as I absolutely love a sort of treasure hunt programme. My favourite childhood TV series was T-Bag which was all about the search for some sort of trinklets or other!
This outfit was worn in the 3rd story, The Stones of Blood which took place on Earth and was set around some standing stones which turned out to be of Alien origin.
Romana wore a couple of outfits but this one is my favourite:

You can see it in all these different images.

And here is the, I am pretty sure, final regeneration of this outfit (see what I did there??)
This length of hair is the best match I've had for all the times I have attempted this outfit.
Maybe the next time I wear this, I might try to make a DIY Key to Time detector to brandish for the picture. It seems a bit strange to wear 2 shades of red like this but I do think it works. Do you?
