That’s right: Tom Baker’s Fourth Doctor is back on the cover of Doctor Who Magazine! This time, it’s for a story about a bizarre and long-lost adventure from the 1970s…

  • An exclusive preview of the new animated version of Fury from the Deep.
  • How Doctor Who was nearly cancelled in 1970… and how the show was saved.
