Mrs. Doyle from Father Ted
Mrs. Doyle (portrayed by Pauline McLynn) is the dowdy housekeeper from the comedy series Father Ted. She works for the titular Father Ted Crilly, Father Jack Hackett, and Father Dougal McGuire. Mrs. Doyle has messy hair and wears modest clothing. To create your costume, you’ll need dark pantyhose, oxford shoes, and a brown midi-length skirt. Pair this with a floral blouse that includes a tie feature at the collar. Mrs. Doyle also wears smocks over her clothes as part of her houskeeping attire, so choose one in a neutral color and complete your costume with a cozy oversized cardigan.
Father Jack Hackett from Father Ted
Father Jack Hackett (played by Frank Kelly) is one of the trio of bad priests banished to Craggy Island in the British television series Father Ted. Father Jack is an alcoholic and tends to be very rude, often more antagonistic than his fellow priests Father Ted Crilly and Father Dougal McGuire. As is sometimes the case, the accessories are really what will make your Father Jack costume work. Start with a black shirt and tab collar, and a black suit to match. Then, you’ll want a balding wig that you can style to be as wildly disheveled as possible. Use a makeup sponge and a cream makeup stick to add red blotches to your face, and then complete your outfit with a cane and a fake cigarette.
Father Ted Crilly from Father Ted
Father Ted Crilly (played by comedian Dermot Morgan) is the titular character of the comedy series Father Ted. One of three priests exiled to Craggy Island, Father Ted finds himself living alongside Father Dougal McGuire and Father Jack Hackett as well as their housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle. Father Ted has grey hair and dark eyebrows. His usual outfit consists of a black suit and his priest’s collar, though he also favors a cozy grey cardigan upon occasion.
The Toymaker from Doctor Who
The episode of Doctor Who ‘The Giggle’ tells the story of a giggle that comes from a puppet, which is driving the human race crazy. The Doctor then discovers the return of the Toymaker, played by Neil Patrick Harris.
To dress like The Toyman, start with a white pinstriped and brown shirt. Cut the sleeves off of the brown shirt to the middle of your arm above the elbow, and sew in elastic to the hem. Wear this on your arms over the white shirt, buttoning it fully at the wrists. Over this, wear a brown plaid vest and tie a brown dotted scarf underneath the collar.
Ruby Sunday
Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) is a character in Doctor Who. As a baby, she was abandoned by a cloaked figure outside the church on Ruby Road (hence her name). No information is known about her birth parents. Now nineteen, she lives with Carla and Cherry Sunday, her foster mother and grandmother. As Christmas approaches, Ruby starts experiencing one too many instances of bad luck. When her new adoptive baby sister, Lulubelle, goes missing, it’s up to her and the Fifteenth Doctor to save the day from the goblins.
Rose Noble
Rose Noble is a character in the Doctor Who 60th anniversary special, first appearing in “The Star Beast.” She’s the daughter of Shaun Temple and former companion Donna Noble. She is transgender, specifically non-binary femme. She runs a small business creating alien toys to make money for her parents, who donated their lottery winnings to charity. Rose has always felt different, which allows her to sympathize with the Meep. Combined with her memories of aliens and the TARDIS, it’s revealed she inherited part of her mother’s suppressed meta-crisis. This also influenced her choice of name – a nod to Rose Tyler. When Rose acknowledges her existence outside the binary, she’s able to save her mother’s life, and the two let go of the meta-crisis together. Transgender actress Yasmin Finney portrays this role.
The 15th Doctor
The 15th Doctor is the current iteration of the Doctor in Doctor Who. You may recognize his actor, Ncuti Gatwa, from his role in Sex Education as Eric Effiong. He is the product of the first ever bi-generation, splitting from the 14th Doctor. With bright colors – mainly browns and oranges – the 15th Doctor is all about flamboyant fashion. This is his official outfit, but we’ve already received sneak peeks of his future stylings. We’ve also gotten a look at his new sonic screwdriver!
Donna Noble from Doctor Who (2023)
Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) is a character in Doctor Who. She was a former companion of the 10th doctor. Sassy and defiant, Donna was his best friend. After absorbing the meta crisis, she became DoctorDonna, a human with the mind of a Time Lord. Yet knowing this would kill her, the Doctor erased her memories of their adventures. Later, the 14th doctor meets Donna again, along with her new husband and daughter, Rose. In passing some of the meta crisis onto her daughter, she’s able to survive and befriend the Doctor again. Now they’re traveling together like old times.
The 14th Doctor
The 14th Doctor is the current iteration of the Doctor. When the 13th Doctor regenerated at Durdle Door, the next incarnation took on a familiar face – aka David Tennant, who previously portrayed the 10th Doctor. Both fans and the Time Lord alike were baffled. The three episode special for the 60th anniversary features the 14th Doctor and another familiar face – Donna Noble, a former companion of the 10th doctor. Ncuti Gatwa will portray the 15th Doctor, but as Riversong says – spoilers!
Anne Lister from Gentleman Jack
Anne Lister was a very real person whose life caught the eye of Sally Wainwright. A lifelong learner now known as one of history’s more openly queer figures, Lister is an LGBTQIA icon whose life has been dramatized for the show Gentleman Jack where she is played to perfection by Suranne Jones.
Lister’s style is very severe. She wears her hair curled up in small buns and often wears a top hat. A white shirt with a strong ruffle wears well under a short, fitted jacket and fitted skirt. Black button boots and a black cane round out the look of a woman who brooks no nonsense and knows her own mind well enough to follow it regardless of what others may say.
