Costume Bracket: Round 1, Post 43

Four more Doctor Who companion outfits for your delectation and delight! Outfits selected by a mixture of ones I, personally, like; lists on the internet; and a certain random element.

Turlough Turlough, suffering from the early 1980s decision that companions should not change costume, was stuck wearing the school uniform of a school he explicitly said he hated. Possibly it was a subtle character point, but one suspects it was part of the ongoing failure of the classic series production teams to think of companions as anything but the most simple of cypher-characters.

Jo in The Three Doctors This is rightly one of Jo's most well-known outfits, though not so commonly cosplayed - possibly because of the difficulty of sourcing and then working with bright blue fake fur.

Ryan in Fugitive of the Judoon Once again Ryan is cursed by Chibnall's determination to dress his characters like ordinary people.

Harry Harry is the last companion to feature in the bracket. Before the 1980s obsession with companions in single outfits, Harry spent nearly all of his tenure in his vaguely naval outfit - least we forget he was a lientenant in the navy. I think he disguised himself as a man from the ministry at one point, and he may have changed his shirt from time to time, but that is about it!
Vote for your favourite of these costumes. Use whatever criteria you please - most practical, most outrageously spacey, most of its decade!
Voting will remain open for at least a week, possibly longer!
