Doctor Who: The Aztecs, Episode 1
Running Time: 25 min.
The TARDIS materializes in pre-Columbian Mexico, within the walls of an ancient tomb. Escaping, the Doctor (William Hartnell) and his companions -- Ian (William Russell), Barbara (Jacqueline Hill), and Susan (Carole Ann Ford) -- discover that the tomb was that of Aztec hight priestess Yetaxa, whose followers practice human sacrifice to honor their deity. The plot thickens when Barbara is mistaken for the reincarnation of Yetaxa. Written by John Lucarotti, the four-part adventure "The Aztecs" began on May 23, 1964, with this episode, titled "The Temple of Evil." Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
