Farewell, Great Macedon

Plot

The First Doctor, Susan, Ian and Barbara arrive in 323 BC, Babylon and befriend the King of Macedon, the ruler of the known world, Alexander the Great. They join Alexander on his travels, along with his generals and officers, including his brave but contemptuous father figure Cleitus, the wise Calanus of India, the nobel young Hephaestion, the Nubian bodyguard Ptolemy, the prophetic priest Iollas and the cunning Seleucus. Over the course of their weeks together, Alexander's greatest friends suffer horrible deaths. Suspicion falls on the Doctor and his companions, who must prove their worth to escape execution. But when the great king himself falls ill, his life is in their hands.
