You gotta go with the scarf on this one. It's one of the Attributes (as in saintly, iconic attributes) of the Doctor that have leaked into the larger geek community that hasn't watched (along with the Tardis, the Sonic Screwdriver, and regeneration). The scarf is associated with the Doctor, and the Fourth Doctor is the one associated with the scarf. I'm only just coming in from the outside, here, and I can tell you definitively that most geeks who are not Whovians will easily recognise the scarf as an artifact of the Doctor when they'd not have a clue about the Jelly Babies.

Third Doctor - From the little I've picked up about him, some form of Bessie seems most appropriate, so is there something that can be added to the image to make it obvious? I only scanned the posts, and I thought Bessie when I saw it and before I read it.

Eighth Doctor - Looks great, but New Who viewers are going to think Tenth Doctor, or even YANA/The Master for this one. Isn't there something else appropriate?

AND lastly - Can we cool this down a bit, SOTO and Czech? PLEASE? We all want them to look nice.
