Leave a reply

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

This year, it’s the 62nd anniversary of ‘Doctor Who’! 🙂 To celebrate the occasion and in the build-up to the 62nd anniversary on the 23rd of November, I’ve decided to check out the latest Big Finish audios of ‘Doctor Who’ featuring the Thirteenth Doctor and Yaz as well as the Ninth Doctor and Rose. I’ve been meaning to check out these Big Finish audio adventures for quite some time, but I’ve been busy with updating my ‘Doctor Who’ reviews on the stories in Seasons 20 and 25 of the classic TV series, based on their ‘Collection’ Blu-ray box sets. Thankfully, I can find some time to check out and listen to some of the latest Big Finish audio stories to review on my blog. Continue reading →

–UPDATED REVIEW ON AUDIO STORY TODAY–

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Happy New Year everyone! Once again, I had in mind to check out and review the ‘Doctor Who’ book called ‘Doctor Who in Wonderland’ by Paul Magrs, featuring the Fifth Doctor, Nyssa, Tegan and Turlough. Sadly, I’ve been very busy these past few months and haven’t been able to put together all the Nyssa stories I wanted to review for the 2024-25 ‘Nyssa Challenge’ mini-review season. Hopefully, I’ll be back on track later in 2025 with putting together brand-new reviews on the latest ‘Doctor Who’ stories featuring Nyssa, including the ‘Doctor Who in Wonderland’ book, which I’m looking forward to reading.

–UPDATED REVIEW ON AUDIO ANTHOLOGY TODAY–

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

So, originally, I was planning to do a set of updated reviews on ‘The Lost Stories’ trilogy of ‘Doctor Who’ audio adventures starring Peter Davison, Sarah Sutton and Janet Fielding from 2011 for my ‘Nyssa Challenge’ mini-review season from 2024 to 2025, including ‘The Elite’, ‘Hexagora’ and ‘The Children of Seth’. Sadly, I’ve been busy in November and haven’t been able to find time to do those updated reviews.
