LOL well Ed has admitted he has no dress sense, see the UFO documentary.

LOL well there is one in my latest Grattan catalogue. I also saw an anime
cartoon on tv and one of the characters was in a nehru collared suit. The
show was Gundam Wing.

Perhaps it's simply out to

Yes of course it has been invented. Just go watch the scene when Ed and Alec
are preparing to search Foster's flat for listening devices in Court
Martial. Ed rips open his jacket when he is getting down to business.

Point to note here. You never see any of the characters do their nehru
jackets up do you. Because velcro is very fiddly to get done up and get it
just right, I guess.
