PLOTLINE
Yorkshire 1893. There’s something very odd about Mrs Gillyflower’s Sweetville mill, with its perfectly clean streets and beautiful people.
There’s something even stranger about the bodies washing up in the river, all bright red and waxy. When the Doctor and Clara go missing, it’s up to Vastra, Jenny and Strax to rescue them before they too fall victim to the Crimson Horror!

DOCTOR WHO FOLKLORE This story marks the return of Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax last seen in DOCTOR WHO - THE SNOWMEN.
PRODUCTION NOTES Error: Though set in Yorkshire 1893, residents were singing "Jerusalem" (composed by Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, from the words by William Blake from the poem MILTON) that was not put to music until
1916.
