I grew up with Dr. Who, and now my child loves it also.  Laplanders are all the "rage" now and mine wanted one, so I killed 2 birds with one stone (love of the hat and Dr. Who series).  The only problem we had with the hat after it was opened on Christmas Day was that one of the "tails" started to unravel on one side from the hat itself.  Caught it early and reknitted and sewed it back into place.  This hat was pricey for the quality issue we had.  Just don't pull on the tails when putting it on.  Recommended for older children and young adults who can "take care" of their possessions.
