The very first picture of Peter Capaldi in his Doctor Who outfit has been revealed, a look the star describes as "100 per cent Rebel Time Lord".
The new Doctor is dressed in a dark blue Crombie coat with red lining, dark blue trousers, a white shirt and black boots in his first official picture.

Doctor Who show runner Steven Moffat added, "New Doctor, new era, and of course new clothes. Monsters of the universe, the vacation is over - Capaldi is suited and booted and coming to get you!"Peter, 55, had previously been pictured filming scenes for series eight wearing his predecessor Matt Smith's costume, while on-set photos released earlier this month show him dressed in a nightshirt.

Doctor Who was named Best Drama at the National Television Awards last week, with Matt picking up the Best Drama Performance prize for his work as the 11th Time Lord.
