1974

1974 was the year of Professor Alec Palmer and Emma Grayling's investigation of the ghost that haunted Caliburn House. On the night of 25 November, the Eleventh Doctor and Clara Oswald visited the Caliburn House, and helped locate the ghost, who was actually a human time traveller named Hila Tacorien. Using Emma's psychic powers, the Doctor crossed a wormhole to get to the pocket universe in which Hila was trapped, bringing her back to N-Space. He later retrieved the Crooked Man from the pocket universe as well, reuniting him with his mate. The day was also notable as the start of the relationship between Alec and Emma, which would later give birth to Hila, their great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter. (TV: Hide)
