One part of the Fifth Doctor's costume that was not his idea was the retention of the [[question mark]]-lapeled shirt from [[Tom Baker]]'s [[season 18]] look.  He was specifically requested to keep them in, via a [[10th February]] [[1981]] memo from [[John Nathan-Turner]] to Lavers.  "I do feel that the ''Doctor Who'' shirt with the '?' mark on the lapels is worth hanging on to," said Nathan-Turner. ([[REF]]: ''[[The Fifth Doctor Handbook]]'')

A couple of years later, Lavers' duties on ''[[The Five Doctors]]'' gave him the opportunity to clothe a wide range of [[Doctor]]s and [[companion]]s, some of whom had never been seen on colour television before.  Combined with his turns on his other two serials, ''[[The Power of Kroll]]'' and ''[[The King's Demons]]'', he provided outfits for more recurring characters in so-called "classic" ''Doctor Who'' than any other costumer.  In total, he had to provide new or significantly modified outfits for the Fifth Doctor, [[The Master (Tremas)|The Master]], [[Susan]], [[Sarah Jane]], [[Liz Shaw|Liz]], [[Zoe Herriot|Zoe]], [[Jamie]], [[the Brigadier]], [[Romana I]], and [[Tegan Jovanka|Tegan]].  Furthermore, he had to recreate costumes for  [[Mike Yates]] and  the [[First Doctor|First]], [[Second Doctor|Second]], and [[Third Doctor|Third Doctors]].  Although he didn't actually design this latter group's costumes, their ''Five Doctors'' costumes were at least subtly different from what they had worn in any other serial.  During the course of his stories, Lavers failed to provide costumes for only two main characters: [[Turlough]] and the [[Fourth Doctor]]
