'''''Farewell Great Macedon''''' was an unproduced six-episode [[First Doctor]] serial by [[Moris Farhi]] which was commissioned by [[David Whitaker]] for the first season of ''Doctor Who'' in 1964. | |||
The story featured the Doctor, [[Ian Chesterton|Ian]], [[Barbara Wright|Barbara]] and [[Susan Foreman|Susan]] encountering [[Alexander the Great]] in [[Babylon]]. Work stopped on the scripts when Farhi felt that the [[script editor|story editor]] was asking for too many changes that would have compromised the historical accuracy of the scripts. The script was later adapted for audio by [[Nigel Robinson]] and [[Farewell, Great Macedon (audio story)|then produced]] for [[Big Finish Productions]], thereby becoming part of the official timeline. | |||
