Clandestine meetings have given way to sinful lust, and now the two lovers have disappeared. The servants whisper that the lovers have eloped, and secretly pine for the passion to do the same.

To Adric and Nyssa the name means very little, but to the Doctor's companion, Tegan, he is a legend. An escape artist extraordinaire, Houdini's reputation will last for decades. But how does Harry knows so much about Tegan? Is it really just guesswork, as he says? Is Harry right to be concerned about the fairground's fortune-teller, who claims to have supernatural skills? Both he and the Doctor suspect an alien influence they know of old. What neither the Doctor nor his friends realise is that somewhere in the shadows, a far more sinister and familiar presence is lying in wait for them.... Written by Steve Lyons.

    'Terrahawks, stay on this channel....' Back for more, after 2015's popular release, is Terrahawks, the fondly remembered action-adventure comedy originally brought to you by the men who created Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Dick Spanner. In the not too distant future, the Earth finds itself under constant threat from Zelda, a blood-thirsty android who, along with her fiendish family and monstrous creations, has established a base on Mars. The only thing standing between this evil queen and her quest for the ultimate annihilation of mankind are the Terrahawks - an intrepid band of heroes led by the stern but fair clone, Doctor Tiger Ninestein. In this new series, the Terrahawks defence grows all the more desperate when a terrifying new enemy joins the androids on Mars.

A pernicious puppet - one half of a famous ventriloquist act - is on the loose, but even the Terrahawks can't keep a bad dummy down as Timmy the Toy Boy takes his final act to Hawknest! 3. 'Return to Sender' by Chris Dale. The return of a missing NASA probe and an encounter with an old flame of Ninestein's means a case of fatal attraction for the Terrahawks. 4. 'Renta-Hawks' by Andrew T. Smith. There's something fishy about a gang of slick would-be heroes. 5. 'Chain of Command' by Geraldine Donaldson. With Zelda missing, the government's focus is firmly on the Terrahawks, and Ninestein is under serious pressure to cooperate. So when a mysterious device lands in Texas, Kate and Mary must go on a Thelma-and-Louise-style mission to prevent the package getting into the wrong hands. 6. 'Lights, Camera, Disaster' by David Hirsch. It-Star's plans for a propaganda movie go awry when Anderburr Pictures' new owner - Lord Low Grade - decides to make a few alterations to the script. 7.
