‘Doctor Who’ 60th Anniversary Marathon – ‘Nightmare In Silver’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Here we are on the penultimate episode of Series 7 in the new ‘Doctor Who’ TV series. It’s time for ‘Nightmare In Silver’ by Neil Gaiman, his second contribution to the TV series (the first being ‘The Doctor’s Wife’ from Series 6). Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor and Jenna Coleman as Clara are joined by the Maitland children – Clara’s charges as a nanny. There’s Eve de Leon Allen as Angie and Kassius Carey Johnson as Artie. In the episode, the Eleventh Doctor, Clara, Angie and Artie visit an extraterrestrial theme park called Hedgewick’s World of Wonders on an alien world. Unfortunately, an army of Cybermen is about to wake up after their defeat in a war centuries ago. The episode’s guest cast also includes Jason Watkins as Webley. I’ve seen him in the first three ‘Nativity’ films and the BBC4 ‘Dirk Gently’ TV series. There’s Warwick Davis as Porridge. He’s well-known for being an Ewok in the ‘Star Wars’ film ‘Return of the Jedi’ and I’ve seen him in the BBC’s ‘Chronicles of Narnia’ TV series and the 2008 film ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian’. And there’s Tamzin Outhwaite as Captain Alice Ferrin. Recently, she was in the Big Finish audio ‘Secrets of Telos’ with Peter Davison’s Fifth Doctor. ‘Nightmare In Silver’ can be checked out on DVD, Blu-ray and BBC iPlayer. Continue reading

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

I decided to share my thoughts on ‘Around the World in 80 Days’ once I finished the whole series. I recently shared my thoughts on the first two episodes in December 2021. I’ve greatly enjoyed ‘Around the World in 80 Days’, starring David Tennant. It’s a very well-put together period TV series. Continue reading

‘Around the World in 80 Days’ – The First Two Episodes

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

On Boxing Day this year, I saw the first two episodes of ‘Around the World in 80 Days’ with David Tennant. I greatly enjoyed the first two episodes. Hopefully I’ll get into more of the TV series as we move in 2022. So far, it’s had a good impression on me in terms of a period drama adventure series. Continue reading

Christmas DVD reviews – The ‘Nativity’ Film Series

 

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Yes, I suppose I’ve got the Christmas blues here. In the transition from 2017 into 2018, I’ve been watching the ‘Nativity’ family film series on DVD.
