Doctor Who: The Trouble With Drax

Coming in June Doctor Who: The Trouble With Drax, the sixth story of The Fourth Doctor Adventures Series Five, sees the return of Gallifrey's most famous cockney! Drax originally appeared in the classic Fourth Doctor story The Armageddon Factor, portrayed by the late, great Barry Jackson. Now in his second incarnation, (Ray Brooks – The Knack... and How to Get It, Cathy Come Home, Mr Benn, Daleks – Invasion Earth 2150 AD) Drax is back to recruit the Doctor for a caper he can't refuse...

Altrazar. The temporal Atlantis, a place lost to time. Believed by many to be a myth, it has long been the perfect location for the rich and powerful to hide away their most dangerous secrets.

Until now.

Because the somewhat crooked, not exactly honest, wheeler-dealer cockney Time Lord known as Drax has found a map that leads to its location. And, at the behest of a manipulative businessman, he's going to use it.

When the TARDIS is dragged out of the space-time vortex, the TARDIS crew aren't best pleased to see the Doctor's old school friend, even less when he pressgangs them into joining a raid on the most secure safe-house in history. However with Romana and K9 held hostage, the Doctor has little choice but to agree. With Drax in tow, he heads for the planet.

Which is where the trouble starts.
