* AlternateHistoryWank: Where to begin? Pythagorus, Hercules and Jason of the Argonauts all end up in Atlantis together.

A BBC1 series that began 28 September 2013 as a replacement for ''{{Series/Merlin}}'', created by [[{{Series/Misfits}} Howard Overman]] and sharing some of the same production team. However, the Jason seen here is ''not'' he of the Argonauts fame, but a young man from the 21st century who is deep-sea diving, trying to find out about his missing father, when he abruptly vanishes and re-emerges in a pre-sinking Atlantis. Quickly making friends with Pythagoras and Hercules, they decide to become soldiers for hire to survive in the world Jason now finds himself in.
