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

BB@10 – Reflection on Conventions

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I started going to conventions in February 2010 with ‘Fifth Element’ at Chiswick in London. It’s amazing to think that I’ve been to so many conventions over the years and have interacted with many celebrities who’ve been in ‘Doctor Who’ as well as the fans. Continue reading

One of my biggest achievements on ‘Bradley’s Basement’, and it’s probably the main reason why my blog has lasted for 10 years, is the fact I’ve created ‘Doctor Who’ timelines for almost every character that appears in the TV series – both classic and new. Continue reading

Novelization/Audiobook Review – ‘Doctor Who – Vengeance on Varos’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s time for us to delve into the Target novelization/audiobook of the ‘Doctor Who’ story ‘Vengeance on Varos’ by Philip Martin, based on the original TV scripts. The Target novelization was published in June 1988, three years after the TV story was transmitted in January 1985. The story features the Sixth Doctor and Peri where they visit Varos and encounter the slimy Sil. I’ve greatly enjoyed checking out the Target novelization, along with the 2019 unabridged audiobook read by Martin Jarvis, who played the Governor in the TV story. Over the years, I’ve considered ‘Vengeance on Varos’ a decent ‘Doctor Who’ story featuring themes of how violence can used as entertainment for TV audiences. Continue reading
