Sir George Hutchinson was Lord of the Manor of Little Hodcombe.
Biography
Descended from Squire Hutchinson, Sir George Hutchinson was Lord of the Manor of Little Hodcombe and owned half of the village, something that he never allowed his tenants to forget. (PROSE: The Awakening [+]Loading...["The Awakening (novelisation)"]) He was also the local magistrate and friends with Colonel Ben Wolsey. In 1984, Andrew Verney informed him that he had found the dormant Malus in the church, but Sir George's "deranged mind" awoke it. The Malus offered him power and Sir George accepted, having Verney imprisoned to prevent his interference.
Holding re-enactments of the Battle of Little Hodcombe in the English Civil War, Hutchinson began to take them very seriously indeed — even going so far as to seal the village off so that no-one could enter or leave. Although Jane Hampden tried to point out to him that detaining people against their will was illegal, Hutchinson merely told her that as the local magistrate, he would find himself quite innocent. The Malus used him to fuel itself with psychic energy. Hutchinson assumed the persona of a Cavalier general and ordered the re-enactment participants like real soldiers.
When the Fifth Doctor, Tegan Jovanka and Turlough arrived, he had his second-in-command, Joseph Willow, capture him. The time travellers had come to Little Hodcombe because Tegan's grandfather, Andrew Verney, lived in Little Hodcombe and she wanted to visit him. When they persisted in interfering, Hutchinson tried to have Tegan burned alive as in old Queen of the May tradition.
Will Chandler, whom the Malus had physically transported from the time of the English Civil War, killed Hutchinson by pushing him at a physical manifestation of the Malus in the village's structurally unstable church. (TV: The Awakening)
