'''James Acheson''' was the credited [[costumes|costumer]] for several ''[[Doctor Who]]'' stories. His most enduring contribution to ''Doctor Who'' was in helping to create the basic look for the [[Fourth Doctor]]. However, he is equally well-remembered for giving the Fourth Doctor substantially different looks in subsequent stories, such as the "[[Scottish]]" variant seen in ''[[Terror of the Zygons]]'', and a radical, scarf-less departure for ''[[The Deadly Assassin]]''. He also was the first designer to create a broadcast colour version of the [[First Doctor|First]] and [[Second Doctor]]s' outfits.
