This episode made me homesick for The X-Files, most especially "Die Hand die verletzt." I was also, of course, yelling at the TV: "They never burned witches in New England!" But that's just me.

Technically, Giles Corey wasn't pressed to death for being a witch. He was pressed to death for refusing to plead either guilty or not guilty to the charge of being a witch.

I know, but it could be nicely menacing option for script-writers (and presumably our hero was also not confessioning to being a witch).
