In the third episode of the four-part story "The Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Eve," Steven (Peter Purves) overhears a plot that will profoundly effect the outcome of hostilties between the Catholics and the Huguenots in 16th century Paris. On another front, the Doctor (William Hartnell), still mistaken for the Abbott of Amboise, is forced into making a succession of potentially deadly decisions. As the episode draws to a climax, a possible reunion between the Doctor and Steven is botched. Written by John Lucarotti, "Priest of Death" first aired on February 19, 1966; this episode apparently no longer exists. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In the conclusion of the four-part story "The Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Eve," The religious differences that have suddenly cropped up between the Doctor (William Hartnell) and Steven (Peter Purves) serve to heighten Steven's feelings of isolation. Of far greater importance, the Catholic hierarchy of 16th century Paris prepares its final fatal assault on the Huguenot population. Jackie Lane joins the cast in the role of the Doctor's new travelling companion Dorothea "Dodo" Chaplet. Written by John Lucarotti and Donald Tosh, "Bell of Doom" first aired on February 26, 1966; this episode apparently no longer exists. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
