122: The Myth Makers

"Mightiest of warriors, greatest in battle, humblest of your servants." Well they do say learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all, Achilles, but this is tendon towards arrogance. Yes, this month it's the swords and sandals epic, The Myth Makers, in which Steven gets a new outfit, Vicki gets a new name and the Doctor gets out of a breezy solo flight into the big city. They meet a jolly Jack Tar, a sotto voce soldier, a shrieking soothsayer and a king who chucks his Troys out of the Priam (yes, we know that doesn't make any sense but Donald Cotton's puns are getting to us). So is there really a Doctor in the horse? Will Vicki find true love with the time-weathered teen, Troilus? And will Jim and Martin award The Myth Makers legendary status or did it ring as hollow as a Trojan Horse? Listen to find the answer to some of these questions and less.
