While he led his troops in the Third Crusade, he worried that John would usurp his throne back in England. Richard assisted the First Doctor and Ian Chesterton in reclaiming Barbara Wright after her capture by Arabs in Palestine in 1190. (TV: The Crusade)

Julian Glover reprised his role as Richard I sixteen years later, in the 1982 film, Ivanhoe.
