Now in June 2020, I’m sharing my latest ‘Doctor Who’ reviews on the four episodes of ‘Classic Doctors, New Monsters’ – Volume 2 by Big Finish. I’ve enjoyed listening to these four ‘Doctor Who’ episodes. Continue reading

‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘The Wedding of River Song’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

This is the season finale of Series 6 in ‘Doctor Who’. It’s a story that should’ve been a two-parter with everything crammed in at the end. It features the return of River Song as well as the Silence. Can the Doctor stop time collapsing with the world now seemingly jumbled up with many time zones? Continue reading

‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘The God Complex’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s time for a ‘Doctor Who’ episode that I saw at a convention in Swansea, September 2011. This episode features the Doctor, Amy and Rory trapped in a labyrinth of a hotel with a Minotaur chasing after them. And if you’re wondering if the Minotaur is a relation of the Nimon, the answer is yes it is! 😀 Continue reading

‘Doctor Who’ Marathon – ‘The Girl Who Waited’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

This is a ‘Doctor Who’ episode that’s pretty complicated when you watch it casually on the TV. It features two Amys, including a young Amy and an older Amy who had to wait for years for the Doctor and Rory to find her. Despite the story’s complexity, it does have some very emotional moments. Continue reading

Hello everyone! 🙂

This ‘Doctor Who’ episode by Mark Gatiss features the Doctor making a ‘house call’ to a terrified eight-year-old boy. Amy and Rory come along for the ride too and Peg Dolls come to life. This episode also features Daniel Mays who would go on to play Private Walker in the ‘Dad’s Army’ 2016 movie. Continue reading

‘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
