About this listen
When the Tardis lands on an arid planet, it seems as though the whole place is desolate and lifeless. But then the Doctor, Steven, and Vicki discover two crashed spaceships: one contains the Drahvins, a race of stunning beauty; the other contains the hideous Rills. However, as the team soon finds out, appearances can be deceptive. It emerges that the beauty of the Drahvins hides a colony of mindless clones who are controlled by the cruel, powerful matriarch Maaga, whereas the ugly Rills are friendly and intelligent explorers.
The Rills tell the Doctor that the dried-up planet is about to die. Back in the control room of the TARDIS, he discovers they are right, but things are worse than they thought. There is only one day of life left...one day to escape.
With the Drahvins' ship damaged beyond repair, can the Rills get off the planet before the evil Maaga hijacks their craft in her own effort to escape?

The travellers arrive in the dangerous domain of the Toymaker, where their failure to win at a series of games could result in them becoming his playthings for eternity.

The Doctor has adopted many guises in his time, but to be hailed as the great god Zeus is a bit of a shock. Yet this is exactly what happens when the TARDIS lands on the plains of Asia Minor, not far from the city of Troy. Taken to the Greek camp by Achilles, the Doctor is introduced to Agamemnon and Odysseus and forced to admit his less¿than¿godlike status. He is then given just two days to come up with a strategy for defeating the Trojans.

Classic Doctor Who.
The Tardis crew try's to help two stranded alien races on a doomed planet. One race is a group of beautiful female warriors, the other group are hideous looking creatures with robot servants. Who is really the bad guys of this tale . The morrow of the story is, don't judge a book by its cover. Clever story from a great show.

A great way to experience a lost story
Galaxy 4 is nearly unique among lost Doctor Who stories in that almost no footage and no telesnaps exist, only publicity photos and fan-recorded audio. This makes visual reconstructions difficult viewing (and the monotonous score doesn't help matters). Thankfully, the audio is greatly enhanced here, and Peter Pervues' narration turns what is many fans' least favorite 'lost story' into a rather enjoyable audio adventure.
