DVD Review – ‘Hamlet’ (2009)

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s time for an old Amazon.co.uk review to be posted onto my blog. This is the first one for 2019 I believe. Today I’ve added a new review for the ‘Drama’ page. This is a DVD review on the 2009 TV film of ‘Hamlet’, based on the 2008 RSC theatre production starring David Tennant and Patrick Stewart. It’s amazing that this would be the 10th anniversary of the 2009 TV film based on the 2008 theatre production. Continue reading

‘All Creatures Great and Small’ – Christmas Specials (1983–1985) REVIEWED

   

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s Christmas time!

Okay, no it isn’t. But I’ve added my two reviews on the two Christmas Specials of ‘All Creatures Great and Small’ from 1983 and 1985 to my blog! These are the two final episodes that feature what I consider to be the golden era of ‘All Creatures’. It’s where the series ends for me on a personal level, but I will be watching and reviewing Series 4 next. Continue reading

‘All Creatures Great and Small’ – Series 3 REVIEWED

   

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’ve finished all of my reviews on Series 3 of ‘All Creatures Great and Small’! This is where it sort of ends for me regarding the original run of ‘All Creatures’ episodes. There are the two Christmas Specials to look forward to, but this is where I feel the series ends for me before it goes downhill. I will be reviewing Series 4-7 after doing the Christmas Specials, but this will not be with the same enthusiasm. Continue reading

TV Review – ‘Call the Midwife’, Series 8, Episode 8

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I apologise for the delay to my review on Series 8, Episode 8 of ‘Call the Midwife’. I was away last weekend for the ‘London Comic Con Spring’. It has taken a while for me to settle back in. Thankfully I saw the season finale for Series 8 of ‘Call the Midwife’ via BBC iPlayer with my parents on Monday. Continue reading

TV Review – ‘Call the Midwife’, Series 8, Episode 7

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’ve seen Episode 7 of Series 8 in ‘Call the Midwife’! The episode has quite an emotional gut-punching ending, especially for one of the family members of our main characters. It connects to a storyline that was somewhat introduced in Episode 1 of Series 8, but we’ll get to it once we get to it. Continue reading

Quick TV Review – ‘Grantchester’, Series 4, Episode 6

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

We’ve come to the end of Series 4 of ‘Grantchester’! I’ve really enjoyed watching ‘Grantchester’ via ITV Hub with my parents this year. I hope I will get onto watching the previous three seasons of this detective drama series set in a 1950s English village. My parents and I have got them on DVD at home. Continue reading

TV Review – ‘Call the Midwife’, Series 8, Episode 6

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Well, it was another pretty good character-driven, emotionally-charged episode of ‘Call the Midwife’ in Series 8 recently. Episode 6 features some pretty good and intriguing story arcs for our main characters and probably ones that’ll continue in the build-up to the season finale in two episodes’ time. Continue reading

Quick TV Review – ‘Grantchester’, Series 4, Episode 5

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’ve seen Series 4, Episode 5 of ‘Grantchester’ and it’s the penultimate one of the season. I enjoyed this episode very much. It’s sad we’re coming to the end of Series 4, but I’m looking forward to start watching the first three seasons of ‘Grantchester’ on DVD with my parents so that I can catch up on it. Continue reading

TV Review – ‘Call the Midwife’, Series 8, Episode 5

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’m five episodes into Series 8 of ‘Call the Midwife’! I enjoyed Series 8, Episode 5, which my parents and I watched on TV via BBC1 last Sunday night. We didn’t have any major church commitments that evening. We were able to watch this episode on TV instead of seeing on BBC iPlayer as we usually do. Continue reading

Quick TV Review – ‘Grantchester’, Series 4, Episode 4

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’m really enjoying ‘Grantchester’ as a series so far. The crime-solving is compelling and the character drama is well-handled. I know there’s been a change-over of casting in this current series, but I’m finding this easy to get into and hope I will get a chance to catch-up on the previous seasons of the series.
