Modern Series Episode 157:
The Witchfinders
In the early 17th century, the Doctor and her friends arrive in the
village of Bilehurst Cragg, in the shadow of the infamous Pendle Hill.
The local landowner, Becka Savage, is convinced that Satanic forces have
brought a plague of misfortune to the town, and is determined to
eradicate the witches she believes are responsible. The Doctor
intercedes only for Becka's crusade to gain support in the form of King
James I, who is on a witch-hunting mission of his own. In the face of
royal opposition, the TARDIS crew must uncover the truth about the
strange events in Bilehurst Cragg, before more innocents are killed.
