We come to something much more light-hearted with The Trouble with Drax from the Fourth Doctor Adventures, easily the best story in the range’s entirety. The Doctor’s con artist childhood friend is caught up in another scrape as Drax recruits the Doctor and Romana to help him uncover the lost world of Altrazar. What starts as a simple pressganging into committing a heist soon spirals into an execution of Drax’s master plan, one he has literally spent all his lives putting together.
The twist around Drax’s involvement is too masterfully done for me to spoil so you’ll just have to listen for yourself but it’s some of John Dorney’s cleverest writing and wittiest, Dorney’s clearly paying homage to Douglas Adams’s style and he does so eloquently. If there’s one Fourth Doctor Adventures story you should go out of your way to listen to, make it this one.
