‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘Let’s Kill Hitler’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

This is the mid-season opener in Series 6 of ‘Doctor Who’. In this episode, the Doctor, Amy and Rory get to meet River Song…before she became River Song. Sounds weird, I know. And despite this episode being called ‘Let’s Kill Hitler’, it barely features him. I found this disappointing when I saw the episode. Continue reading

‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘A Good Man Goes to War’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

We’ve come now to the end of the first half of Series 6. There was a break in-between Part 1 and Part 2 of Series 6. ‘A Good Man Goes to War’ is the mid-season finale and it features the true identity of River Song. Dare I say it, I wasn’t particularly happy with how River Song was revealed in the episode. Continue reading

This ‘Doctor Who’ episode features the first appearance of James Corden as Craig. This is ‘The Lodger’ by Gareth Roberts where Matt Smith’s Doctor meets Craig. The Doctor becomes Craig’s lodger at his and Sophie’s house. I enjoyed this episode, finding it a refreshing comic relief episode in the TV series. Continue reading

‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘Victory of the Daleks’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Here is the first ‘Doctor Who’ episode with Matt Smith’s Doctor where he meets the Daleks for the first time. And it was a disappointing Dalek episode for me at the time. However this episode does feature Ian McNeice as Winston Churchill who summons the Doctor to show him his new Ironsides. Continue reading
