After last week’s focus on Hercules and his romantic travails, we returned to a broader story which drew in the members of the Altantean royal court. Beginning with a pronouncement from King Minos, celebrations began for the engagement of Princess Ariadne to the oily Heptarian with the announcement of a Pankration, a brutal fighting contest.
After the dramatic events of last week’s opening episode, Will Burton (David Tennant) finds himself frozen out while both prosecution and defence build their cases for the second murder trial of Liam Foyle.
Beginning with some sweaty physical action, Hercules took part in a wrestling contest seeking to impress Medusa. In the aftermath of his inevitable defeat, Jason and Pythagoras discussed their friend’s shortcomings and the foolishness of his infatuation.

BBC One’s new adventure series Atlantis continues this weekend with ‘The Song Of The Sirens’ and, desperate to win over Medusa’s heart, Hercules pays a visit to a powerful witch, Circe.
Workaholic junior barrister Will Burton (David Tennant) has a happy home life with his wife and son, splitting their time between an attractive London flat and a country cottage. He also enjoys professional acclaim and a healthy professional rivalry with one of his contemporaries, Maggie Gardner.
