Doctor Who: Doom's Day Sees The Assassin Teaming Up with K-9 (TEASER)

In the next hour of the Doctor Who 60th Anniversary multimedia event, Doom's Day sees the deadly assassin meeting up with K-9.

As Doom's (Sooz Kempner) day continues to roll on, the greatest assassin in the universe still has a date with the Grim Reaper that she would prefer to avoid. But will even the Doctor, a vortex manipulator, and 24 hours be enough to save Doom from paying the ultimate price? In the next chapter of the Doctor Who 60th-anniversary  multimedia event, "Doom's Day," Doom ends up on a besieged Space Station populated solely by robots, where marauding pirates complicate her getting some much-needed help from the Doctor and K-9. But for this hour, fans will be making their way to Doctor Who: Lost in Time – with the story set within the mobile game where you explore time and space collecting energy to save the universe (available to download for free).

Here's a look at the newest transmission from Doom confirming a communication from not just a "robot dog"…

Hours 1100-1400 "Extraction Point" novel from MG Harris & Penguin Random House (August 10, 2023):

The finest time-traveling assassin in the cosmos is running scared. Doom's own death is coming for her in a matter of hours. And the only person in the universe who might just be able to save her is the Doctor – so long as it's the right Doctor.

But as Doom searches for aid, the hits keep coming in. Kill a crabby Kraal and his replica world! Assassinate a ghost on Satellite Five! Eliminate a living asteroid! Doom finds her talents – and patience – stretched to breaking point.

But these apparently random jobs are linked in a way Doom could never imagine. And when not one but TWO different Doctors get involved on the trail of an old enemy, the ensuing fireworks might just end the lives of billions. Can Doom solve the mystery before her allotted hours are up? It's not only a planet she must save from destruction, but herself…

But when a mysterious stranger with silver hair and sunglasses turns up, will he be Doom's salvation?
