The Doctor Who saga began on November 23, 1963, with the first episode of the four-part story arc known variously as "An Unearthly Child," "100,000 BC," and "The Tribe of Gum." Curious about their secretive pupil Susan (Carole Ann Ford), schoolteachers Ian Chesterson (William Russell) and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) follow her home. Stopping off at a junk yard, they meet Susan's grandfather, the Doctor (William Hartnell), who is able to travel in space and time with his marvelous machine, the TARDIS. Entering the machine, the two teachers join the Doctor on a journey back in time -- 100,000 years back, to the era of the Great Cold. Episode one of "An Unearthly Child" was written by Anthony Coburn. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In the conclusion of the four-part story arc "An Unearthly Child," Doctor Who (William Hartnell) and his companions, Ian and Barbara (William Russell, Jacqueline Hill), are still stranded in the era of the Great Cold some 100,000 years ago. Having managed to escape both the Cave of Skulls and the Forest of Fear, the Doctor and his companions are unable to elude their pursuers, a hostile cave-dwelling tribe. The only hope for salvation lies in the Doctor's ability to create fire and to show the tribesmen how to do the same -- but how to accomplish this, with next to no materials at hand? Originally telecast on December 14, 1963, "The Firemaker" was written by Anthony Coburn. Subsequently, the entire "An Unearthly Child" saga (also known as "The Tribe of Gum" and "100,000 BC") was novelized by Terrance Dicks. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In the third episode of the four-part story arc "An Unearthly Child," Doctor Who (William Hartnell) and his companions, Ian and Barbara (William Russell, Jacqueline Hill), have managed to escape the Cave of Skulls. But they have not yet managed to escape the prehistoric-earth surroundings -- and the TARDIS is far from ready to return the travelers to their own time. With an angry cave-dwelling tribe hot on their heels, the little party must make their way through a blazing forest inferno. Written by Anthony Coburn, "The Forest of Fear" originally aired on December 7, 1963. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
