When I first saw the Christmas frock coat in The Snowmen, I wasn't too fond of it. However, since seeing The Time of the Doctor, it has grown on me. Mainly because I couldn't get over how epic his regeneration scene in which he wore it was. Air guitar-ing the regeneration energy out of his body and obliterating the Daleks with it. He really went out with a bang! Anyway, I've seen a few attempts at the coat on eBay. There's just a few things I think look a little off. If you go to eBay and search "purple frock coat", quite a few out of china are available. There is one that has a pretty accurate colour, but the lapels look way too wide and aren't tall enough. The other version has perfect looking lapels, but the colour of the coat is way off. Way too purple. And on both attempts, the frogs didn't look all too accurate. I'm new on here and I'm not sure if I'm permitted to post the links to these or not. So I'm just giving the descriptions. At any rate, I was just wondering if anyone could direct me towards someone who could make this coat. As of The Time of the Doctor, I now feel that this is a pretty historic costume piece.
