It’s time for another Easter review season on ‘Bradley’s Basement’! Last year, I shared my reviews on the ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories featured in ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’, which can be heard on Audible. This year, I’m sharing another set of reviews on the ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories featured in ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume Two’, which can also be heard on Audible. Most of these audio stories I’ve reviewed already and there’s one I’ve yet to share.

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

As part of the 62nd anniversary celebrations of ‘Doctor Who’ on ‘Bradley’s Basement’, I’ve decided to share a brand-new video containing my quick reactions to Series 15 of the new ‘Doctor Who’ TV series, originally recorded from December 2024 to June 2025. This is like the longest compilation video I’ve ever put together, as its runtime is about 1 hour and 32 minutes. So, it’s like watching a movie for an hour and a half. You’ll need to have about 92 minutes to check out this video in full. 😀 Continue reading →

‘Tales From The TARDIS’ Review – ‘Old Flames’

Leave a reply

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

And here we are on the twelfth and final instalment of the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories called ‘Old Flames’ by Paul Magrs. The story features the Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane. It also features the ‘Doctor Who’ debut of Iris Wildthyme, a character who made her debut in three ‘Phoenix Court’ novels published by Vintage Books in the 1990s. She’s currently played by Katy Manning in the Big Finish audios. ‘Old Flames’ is read by Nicholas Courtney, who played the Brigadier in the ‘Doctor Who’ TV series and the Big Finish audios. As well as the twelfth story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection, it’s the sixth story in the ‘Short Trips’ audio anthology produced by the BBC. It’s also the second story in the ‘Short Trips’ 1998 book collection by the BBC, which I reviewed in my ‘Nyssa Challenge’ mini-review season for Easter from March to April 2024. Continue reading →

‘Tales From The TARDIS’ Review – ‘Stop the Pigeon’

Leave a reply

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Let’s check out the eleventh and penultimate story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories called ‘Stop the Pigeon’ by Robert Perry and Mike Tucker. The story features the Seventh Doctor and Ace. It also features the Tremas Master, as played by Anthony Ainley, as well as a Krynoid and a talking pigeon. 😀 The story is read by Sophie Aldred, who plays Ace in the ‘Doctor Who’ TV series and the Big Finish audios. As well as the eleventh story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection, it’s the fifth story in the ‘Short Trips’ audio anthology produced by the BBC. It’s also the fifth story in the ‘Short Trips’ 1998 book collection by the BBC, which I reviewed in my ‘Nyssa Challenge’ mini-review season for Easter from March to April 2024. Apparently, the prose version of ‘Stop the Pigeon’ is longer than the audio version of the story. 😀 Continue reading →

‘Tales From The TARDIS’ Review – ‘Degrees of Truth’

Leave a reply

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Today, it’s time to check out the tenth story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories. I’m sharing my brand-new review on the short story called ‘Degrees of Truth’, which was originally featured as the fourth story in the ‘Short Trips’ audio anthology, based on the 1998 book version of the ‘Short Trips’ anthology. Like ‘Vigil’, ‘Degrees of Truth’ is exclusive only to audio and was never printed in any book anthology since then. The story is by David A. McIntee and is read by Nicholas Courtney. It also features the Third Doctor and the Brigadier, and it tackles the death of one of the U.N.I.T. soldiers that was killed during the events of ‘The Dæmons’. Was this story worth my attention in revisiting ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’? Continue reading →
