‘Doctor Who’ 60th Anniversary Marathon – ‘Battlefield’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

And welcome to Season 26 of the classic ‘Doctor Who’ TV series. It’s Sylvester McCoy’s third and final season as the Seventh Doctor, and it’s the final season of the classic TV series. Today, we’re starting the season off with ‘Battlefield’, a four-part story by Ben Aaronovitch, starring Sylvester McCoy as the Seventh Doctor and Sophie Aldred as Ace.
