To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

A big wooden horse was a feature of this tale... and the wheeled carriage in the clue is for a baby

Okay, I wasn't expecting that one to prove so difficult: the answer was Priam, king of Troy and father of Paris - pram (wheeled carriage) containing i (one). Here is a replacement to hopefully keep the ball rolling: Triumphant as military displays spirit (8)
