Hello everyone! 🙂
Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
It’s time for another Disney+ Roundup, and this time, I’ve seen three Disney-produced movies in a row these past few weeks on Disney+. The first two movies have the theme of treasure to them, whilst the third film could be sort-of treasure-related if you’re considering a deed to some farmland. 😀 Continue reading

It’s time for the second story of Season 21 of the classic ‘Doctor Who’ TV series. Today, we’re taking a look at ‘The Awakening’, a two-part story by Eric Pringle, where Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, Janet Fielding as Tegan and Mark Strickson as Turlough visit the English village of Little Hodcombe in the year 1984. There, Tegan tries to reunite with her grandfather, Andrew Verney, whilst a psychic alien creature called the Malus attempts to take control of the villagers in some deadly reenactments of the English Civil War. ‘The Awakening’ can be checked out on DVD and Britbox.

Here we are on Peter Davison’s third and final season as the Fifth Doctor in ‘Doctor Who’ – Season 21. The season ends with a peculiar entry, but we’ll get to that eventually. We begin Season 21 with ‘Warriors of the Deep’, a four-part story by Johnny Byrne, featuring the return of the Silurians and the Sea Devils. This story also introduces the Myrka. Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor is joined by Janet Fielding as Tegan and Mark Strickson as Turlough. Does this story start the season off on a good note? 😐 ‘Warriors of the Deep’ can be checked out on DVD and Britbox. Continue reading

Whilst Season 19 is my favourite season out of the Peter Davison/Fifth Doctor era, Season 20 is arguably my second favourite season. I acknowledge that Season 20 had its problems, particularly in the production values affected by industrial action, but I enjoyed this season more than Season 21. 🙂 Continue reading

It’s time to celebrate the 20th anniversary of ‘Doctor Who’, as we take a look at the 20th anniversary special called ‘The Five Doctors’ by Terrance Dicks. ‘The Five Doctors’ stars Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, William Hartnell and Richard Hurndall as the First Doctor, Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor, Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, and Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor. There’s also Janet Fielding as Tegan, Mark Strickson as Turlough, Carole Ann Ford as Susan, Nicholas Courtney as the Brigadier, Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith, Lalla Ward as Romana and more. I highly recommend watching the 101-minute Special Edition version of ‘The Five Doctors’, as that has more scenes and CGI effects in it. You can check out the Special Edition version on Disc 2 of the 25th Anniversary 2-disc DVD edition of ‘The Five Doctors’. There’s also the original 90-minute TV version of the story, which can be checked out on DVD and Britbox. Continue reading

I’ve seen the latest 2023 live-action remake of Disney‘s ‘The Little Mermaid’ at the cinema! 🙂 Since I’ve seen and reviewed the original 1989 film as well as ‘The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea’, it’s only fair that I share some thoughts on the latest live-action film and whether I like the film or not. 🙂 Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
Here we are on ‘technically’ the season finale of Season 20 of the classic ‘Doctor Who’ TV series. It’s time for us to check out ‘The King’s Demons’, a two-part adventure starring Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, Janet Fielding as Tegan and Mark Strickson as Turlough. This happens to be the third ‘Doctor Who’ story written by Terence Dudley (who previously directed ‘Meglos’ and wrote ‘Four To Doomsday’ and ‘Black Orchid’). The story features the return of Anthony Ainley as the Master and it introduces us to Kamelion, a shape-shifting robot voiced by Gerald Flood, who also plays King John at an English castle in 1215. ‘The King’s Demons’ can be checked out on DVD and Britbox.
