Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Wishing you all a very good Easter Sunday today! I’ve shared this quite recently, but what the heck? No harm in sharing it again! 😀 It’s time to check out the fourth story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume Two’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories! It’s time for the 1997 abridged audiobook of the 1996 BBC Books edition of the ‘Doctor Who’ TV movie novelization – also known as ‘The Novel of the Film’. ‘The TV Movie’ novelization is by Gary Russell and is read by Paul McGann. My review on the 1997 abridged audiobook has been added to my page on ‘The TV Movie’, which also contains a review on ‘The TV Movie’ itself, a review on the ‘Tomorrow’s Times – The Eighth Doctor’ item presented by Nicholas Courtney, and a review on the 2021 Target novelization and its 2021 unabridged audiobook read by Dan Starkey. The story features the Eighth Doctor, Grace, the Seventh Doctor and the Master. Continue reading →
