The Time Tunnel Cast

500 B.C.: Arriving at the siege of Troy, Doug and Tony are captured by Greek soldiers and brought before their commander, Ulysses. When the two time-travellers predict that the Greeks will win the ten year conflict Ulysses proclaims them gods, a belief that does not go down well with his military advisor, Sardis. The lieutenant challenges Tony to a swordfight, but the battle is swift, and ends with Tony overpowering his opponent; a humiliated Sardis skulks away to join Paris, the Trojan prince who currently holds Helen prisoner. During the next battle Doug and Tony are attacked by Trojan soldiers, but the Tic-Toc personnel send Sergeant Jiggs back through the Time Tunnel armed with a machine gun and hand grenades; he saves the two scientists’ lives, only for Doug to then be captured by Sardis and a Trojan patrol. Jiggs returns to the present, but experiences terrible aging from the effects of the time / space vortex. Doctor Swain and Doctor MacGregor manage to restore him to his proper age, but in the process they accidentally transfer a Greek soldier to the base. Meanwhile, Tony realises that he must find a way to convince Ulysses to use a wooden horse to infiltrate the city of Troy – and Doug finds himself in the Trojan palace, about to face the wrath of Paris…

Cliff-hanger: Tony and Doug arrive amidst the bodies of dead Cavalry soldiers, and are promptly captured by a party of Native American Indians…
