Tie

A tie was an article of clothing commonly associated with men's apparel on the planet Earth. Ties were worn for their style value, but could also signal levels of formality, association with particular schools, companies or other groups.[source needed]

The Doctor's ties[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor regularly wore a tie of some form in most, though not all, of their incarnations.

First Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The First Doctor almost always wore a wing collar with a navy blue ribbon bow tie. (TV: An Unearthly Child [+]Loading...["An Unearthly Child (TV story)"], The Daleks [+]Loading...["The Daleks (TV story)"], The Dalek Invasion of Earth [+]Loading...["The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)"]) On one occasion he wore an ascot tie that had a black-and-white checked pattern.

(TV: The Tenth Planet [+]Loading...["The Tenth Planet (TV story)"], Twice Upon a Time [+]Loading...["Twice Upon a Time (TV story)"])

Second Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Second Doctor typically wore a small, pre-tied bow tie, attached to his shirt with a safety pin. It performed the function of closing the top of his shirt, in place of a collar button. (TV: The Power of the Daleks [+]Loading...["The Power of the Daleks (TV story)"])

Third Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Third Doctor wore many ties. He often wore bow ties done in black, (TV: The Three Doctors [+]Loading...["The Three Doctors (TV story)"]) green, (TV: Planet of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Planet of the Daleks (TV story)"]) red, (TV: The Green Death [+]Loading...["The Green Death (TV story)"]) cyan, (TV: The Time Warrior [+]Loading...["The Time Warrior (TV story)"]) Prussian blue, (TV: Planet of the Spiders [+]Loading...["Planet of the Spiders (TV story)"]) or white.

(TV: Planet of the Spiders [+]Loading...["Planet of the Spiders (TV story)"])

(COMIC: The Power [+]Loading...["The Power (comic story)"])

The Fifth Doctor did not generally wear a tie, preferring to wear his shirt open-collared. On one occasion, however, he dressed in early European-style finery and wore an ivory cravat in his role as owner of the Tempus Fugit. (PROSE: The Crystal Bucephalus [+]Loading...["The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)"])

Sixth Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Sixth Doctor wore long cravats in a basic bow form in the style of the First Doctor, but his became wider at the ends with diagonal edges. Rather than being plain, they were either turquoise, (TV: The Twin Dilemma [+]Loading...["The Twin Dilemma (TV story)"]) crimson, (TV: The Mysterious Planet [+]Loading...["The Mysterious Planet (TV story)"]) purple, (PROSE: Killing Ground [+]Loading...["Killing Ground (novel)"]) purple, (AUDIO: The Condemned [+]Loading...["The Condemned (audio story)"]) Prussian blue, (AUDIO: Project Lazarus [+]Loading...["Project Lazarus (audio story)"]) and one in midnight blue.

(AUDIO: World Enough and Time [+]Loading...["World Enough and Time (audio story)"])

Seventh Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Seventh Doctor's red tie. (PROSE: Original Sin [+]Loading...["Original Sin (novel)"])

Early in his incarnation the Seventh Doctor wore the Sixth Doctor's crimson cravat before switching for a scarlet paisley tie, (TV: Time and the Rani [+]Loading...["Time and the Rani (TV story)"] etc.) but later replaced it with a similar tie. (TV: Battlefield [+]Loading...["Battlefield (TV story)"]) He wore a plain green cravat, (PROSE: White Darkness [+]Loading...["White Darkness (novel)"]) which he replaced with ties done in rust orange, (PROSE: Legacy [+]Loading...["Legacy (novel)"]) ruby, (PROSE: Sky Pirates! [+]Loading...["Sky Pirates!

(TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"])

While in Perivale in 1883 at Gabriel Chase the Seventh Doctor deflected anticipated criticism from Ernest Matthews by saying, "Let me guess. My theories appal you, my heresies outrage you, I never answer letters, and you don't like my tie!" (TV: Ghost Light [+]Loading...["Ghost Light (TV story)"])

Eighth Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Eighth Doctor's cravat. (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"])

The Eighth Doctor adopted a grey dupioni cravat, starting with the Wild Bill Hickok costume he appropriated shortly after regeneration.

(AUDIO: Caerdroia [+]Loading...["Caerdroia (audio story)"])

In 1930, when the Eighth Doctor was denied access to an area of the R101 airship, he protested, "I'm wearing a tie!" (AUDIO: Storm Warning [+]Loading...["Storm Warning (audio story)"])

At the end of his life, he had switched to a four-in-hand ascot tie which he wore under his white shirt's collar. He felt he had "moved on" from cravats. (AUDIO: Planet of the Ogrons [+]Loading...["Planet of the Ogrons (audio story)"]) He wore ascot ties in yellow, (COMIC: The Pictures of Josephine Day [+]Loading...["The Pictures of Josephine Day (comic story)"]) purple, (COMIC: A Matter of Life and Death [+]Loading...["A Matter of Life and Death (comic story)"]) dark teal, (COMIC: The Lost Dimension [+]Loading...["The Lost Dimension (comic story)"]) sapphire blue, (AUDIO: He Kills Me, He Kills Me Not [+]Loading...["He Kills Me, He Kills Me Not (audio story)"]-Mutually Assured Destruction [+]Loading...["Mutually Assured Destruction (audio story)"]) ebony black (AUDIO: Meanwhile, Elsewhere [+]Loading...["Meanwhile, Elsewhere (audio story)"]-Previously, Next Time [+]Loading...["Previously, Next Time (audio story)"]) or midnight blue. (TV: The Night of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Night of the Doctor (TV story)"]) During the Last Great Time War, the manner in which he tied his ascot appeared hastily bundled on.

In 2008, before they had met from her perspective, the Tenth Doctor got Martha Jones' attention in the street and dramatically took off his tie.
