The Witchfinders
Season 11 · Episode 8
The Doctor and her friends travel back in time to 17th-century Lancashire, where they get mixed up in a witch trial orchestrated by a local landowner. The air of fear sweeping the land is only intensified when King James I himself turns up - but while the king and the locals are gripped by paranoia about hidden evil in their midst, a very real danger lurks close at hand. Guest starring Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley) and Alan Cumming (The Good Wife) as the superstitious monarch
