Goofs

Mounted warriors are shown using saddles with stirrups. Saddles did not come into use in Europe until 200 B.C. and stirrups about 650 A.D., 1,000 and 1,850 years respectively after the events depicted here. The stirrup is what made mounted warriors practical; around 1200 B.C., horses would have been limited to drawing war chariots. See more »

Tony and Doug appear in the Mediterranean in the age of Troy and the Trojen Horse. The travellers are confused as "Gods".

The guest stars in this hour really shine and create a charged theatrical edge to this hour that leaves the 2004 motion picture - Troy

  • for dead. Troy (2004) may have created a massive set as the city of
Troy, and it gets full marks for that, but give me Revenge Of The Gods any day.

In production order (not screening order), this was the 4th episode of Time Tunnel and there is a high energy feeling in the hour (note the Leith Stevens score and editing) because everything was still so new.

The score should go down well with Lost In Space fans as, at one stage in the Tunnel itself, we hear the exact same music used in LIS's Blast Off Into Space. Also, in the teaser, we see that the time travellers are on the second season LIS alien planet set!

The hour does create a feeling of being in the theatrical-style distant past, that alone makes Revenge Of The Gods highly entertaining.
