This brief historical adventure saw the Doctor get mistaken for the god Zeus after landing in the middle of the Trojan War. He is taken in by the Greeks while his companions, Vicki and Steven, are captured by the Trojans. The Doctor manages to convince the Greeks he is not Zeus, but they still want his help to defeat the Trojans. The Trojans, on the other hand, believe Vicki has special powers and want her help in defeating the Greeks.

In a timey-wimey twist, this episode credits the Doctor with inventing the famous Trojan horse and shows Vicki becoming the famous Cressida, choosing to leave the TARDIS and remain with Troilus. With all four parts wiped from the archives, this is one of the candidates for a full animated restoration.
