Synopsis of Doctor Who: The Smugglers, Episode 1
Doctor Who inaugurated its fourth season on September 10, 1966, with episode one of the four-part "The Smugglers." The TARDIS materializes in a cave off a seacoast, but the Doctor (William Hartnell) doesn't know where he is or what year he's in. Soon, however, the Doctor and his companions Ben (Michael Craze) and Polly (Anneke Wills) learn they've arrived in 17th century Cornwall -- smack in the middle of a hotbed of intrigue involving smugglers, pirates, and a mysterious murder. Written by Brian Sayles, "The Smugglers, Episode One" no longer exists in the BBC archives -- nor, for that matter, do episodes two, three, or four, save for a few brief fragments (including, in the case of this episode, the murder that sets the plot in motion). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
