Shortly after [[regeneration|regenerating]] [[Third Doctor's regeneration|from]] his [[Third Doctor|third incarnation]], the Fourth Doctor accompanied [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart]] on an investigation. He tried on several conspicuous costumes before settling on a Bohemian outfit. This included a wide-brimmed [[fedora]] and a long scarf. ([[TV]]: ''[[Robot (TV story)|Robot]]'') The scarf was originally [[knitting|knitted]] by [[Madame Nostradamus]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Ark in Space (TV story)|The Ark in Space]]''), according to one source, as a gift for the [[First Doctor]]. ([[PROSE]]: "[[The Time Lord Letters (novel)|Unpredictable Tastes]]") | |||
Upon regenerating, [[Romana II]] wore an [[Ivory (colour)|ivory]] copy of the Doctor's scarf with copies of his [[frock coat]] and [[trousers]] made from [[Rose (colour)|rose]] [[pink]] [[cashmere]] after he told her to wear something more sensible and stylish.

The producers loved it and, after it had been shortened slightly, used it for the Fourth Doctor's first story Robot.
- There were many scarves used during Tom Baker's era. This included a considerably shorter "stunt scarf" for action sequences. The pattern and colouration varied from season to season, as did the overall length of the scarf, which, at one point reached a maximum length of 24 feet.
