Kapitan Ernst Wolfgang Spiegal was a German SS officer during World War II. He and his men forced Professor Pierre Vedrun to develop a matter transporter for their war effort. Vedrun inadvertently invented a prototype that would transport people through time as well as space, and Spiegal, his men and Monique Vedrun, arrived in 1970s Dartmoor, where they encountered the Doctor. When Spiegal discovered that he had traveled in time, he planned to use the device to acquire advanced weaponry which would assure a Nazi victory. When Vedrun and the Doctor were freed by Marcel Sangenez's resistance group, Spiegal threatened to have a school full of children destroyed if they did not return. They returned before the deadline arrived, having modified the device in the interim. When Spiegal and his men used it, they were transported not into the future, but to the inside of a jail cell in a Dover police station. (TVC: Timebenders)
