Doctor presses Grover for Sarah's fate

The chauffeur’s uniform is worn by Grover’s Butler during the interrogation, functioning as both a disguise and a narrative prop. Its presence is subtle yet critical—it visually embodies the false alibi by presenting a uniformed witness tied to UNIT HQ, a location Sarah Jane Smith never actually visited. The Doctor’s scrutiny of the uniform and its details underlines the fraudulence of the claim.

Before: Stored in Grover’s household, freshly pressed and tailored, ready for use as a prop in the cover-up.
