About this listen

First broadcast from 23 May to 13 June 1964.

Barbara becomes mistaken for the goddess Yetaxa, and accepts the identity in hope of persuading the Aztecs to give up human sacrifice, despite the Doctor's warnings about changing history.

Barbara gets her time to shine as a powerful goddess in the South American sun with a cautionary tale about stealing from tombs. Indiana Jones could never be this glam.

With the beautiful sets and costumes, and the unlikely 90s haircuts, we’re desperate to watch this one in colour.

David is excited to guide us through one of his all-time favourite stories and Sarah waxes lyrical about her new favourite bad guy.

We enjoy the Doctor’s holiday romance as he tries his hand at being an evil gardener.
