Reflection on ‘Back to the Future – The Musical’ and its Future

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Last weekend, I saw ‘Back to the Future – The Musical’ for the fourth and final time (for now 😀 ) at the Adelphi Theatre in London. I saw the musical production on Saturday 11th of April, one day before its West End run in London finished on Sunday 12th of April 2026. Continue reading

Quick Theatre Review – ‘The Mousetrap’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Last weekend, I saw ‘The Mousetrap’, a whodunit murder mystery play by Agatha Christie at St. Martin’s Theatre in London. This was the second time I’d seen the play in London after so many years. The first time that I saw ‘The Mousetrap’ was back in November 2010. Continue reading

Series 14 of ‘Doctor Who’ with Ncuti Gatwa on Blu-ray #0

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

At long last! I’ve completed writing up my in-depth reviews on Series 14 of the new ‘Doctor Who’ TV series, starring Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday. These reviews are based on me checking out the stories in the Series 14 Blu-ray box set. As we speak, I’m in the process of uploading my reviews on each of the stories in Series 14 to my blog. I aim to share my reviews every week from April to June 2026. It’s taken me a while to write up my reviews on each story in Series 14, but I’m happy to be sharing them on my blog, which includes in-depth thoughts by me on what I think of the stories today compared to when I first viewed back from May to June 2024.

‘Beast Wars’ Review #40 – ‘Crossing the Rubicon’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Here we are on another updated review on a ‘Beast Wars: Transformers’ episode! It’s time to check out the episode ‘Crossing the Rubicon’, a Season 3 episode about Blackarachnia. In the episode, Blackarachnia’s life is in danger when she attempts to use the Transmetal driver she acquired from Depth Charge in ‘Feral Scream’ to upgrade her body. Will the Maximals be able to save Blackarachnia’s life whilst the Predacons, led by Tarantulas, attack the Maximals’ base to disrupt the procedure? The first time I saw ‘Crossing the Rubicon’ was on Volume 3 of the four official VHS releases of ‘Beast Wars’ containing Season 3 episodes that had never been shown before via GMTV in the UK. I’ve also seen ‘Crossing the Rubicon’ in the ‘Beast Wars’ 15th anniversary DVD box set, and it can now be seen on YouTube. We’re getting close to the end of the ‘Beast Wars’ series, as there are three more stories after this one. Hopefully, I’ll be able to complete my updated reviews on ‘Beast Wars’ by the time we get to Early Bank Holiday Monday in the UK in May. Continue reading

For the past few weeks from March to April 2026, my parents and I have been checking out the 2013 TV mini-series ‘The Bible’. I’ve greatly enjoyed checking out this depiction of the Bible stories in live-action. 🙂 It’s been fascinating to see a refreshing take on the Bible. Continue reading

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And here we are on the seventh and final instalment of the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume Two’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories.

Today, we’re checking out ‘The People’s Temple’ by Paul Leonard. The story features the Eighth Doctor and Sam, and it’s read by Paul McGann.
