Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
Okay, so, Ncuti Gatwa’s first season of ‘Doctor Who’ has come and gone. How time flies within two months. 😀 Right from the beginning, I’ve stated I won’t share any in-depth thoughts on the episodes until the DVD and Blu-ray releases of Series 14 are out. But I can at least share my general thoughts. Continue reading

So, back in 2022, I did a quick review on the 2015 BBC TV adaptation of ‘Partners In Crime’, featuring Agatha Christie‘s less well-known characters in crime English literature – Tommy and Tuppence – played by David Walliams and Jessica Raine. I enjoyed checking out that short-lived six-part TV series. Continue reading

Last week, I received my Blu-ray copy of the ‘Doctor Who’ 2023 Christmas Special called ‘The Church on Ruby Road’, starring Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday. I’ve updated my review on the special by adding the details of what special features are contained on the DVD and Blu-ray releases of ‘The Church on Ruby Road’. Continue reading

Hello everyone! 🙂
Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
Today is the penultimate instalment of the ‘Doctor Who’ 60th Anniversary Marathon on ‘Bradley’s Basement’ in 2023. I hope you’ve enjoyed checking out the marathon to celebrate 60 years of ‘Doctor Who’ as much as I’ve enjoyed sharing it this year. As we began with ‘An Unearthly Child’, the first TV story of the William Hartnell/First Doctor era, it’s only fair that we conclude with the first full-length TV adventure of the Ncuti Gatwa/Fifteenth Doctor era – ‘The Church of Ruby Road’ by Russell T. Davies. As well as being Ncuti Gatwa’s first full-length TV adventure as the Fifteenth Doctor, we’re introduced to Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday, who becomes the Fifteenth Doctor’s new companion. This is also the first ‘Doctor Who’ Christmas Special since ‘Twice Upon a Time’ in 2017. With this being the 2023 Christmas Special, ‘The Church of Ruby Road’ also features Davina McCall as well as goblins and their Goblin King aboard a flying sailing ship in the sky. We’re also introduced to Michelle Greenidge as Carla Sunday, Ruby’s adoptive mother; Angela Wynter (of ‘EastEnders’ fame) as Cherry Sunday, Ruby’s adoptive grandmother; and Anita Dobson (also of ‘EastEnders’ fame) as Mrs. Flood. Apparently, Gemma Arrowsmith, who wrote the ‘Doctor Who’ audio story ‘The Flying Dutchman’, is in this Christmas Special as a character called Ruth Lyons. Did ‘The Church on Ruby Road’ impress me as a good comeback for the ‘Doctor Who’ Christmas Specials in 2023? ‘The Church on Ruby Road’ can be checked out on BBC iPlayer in the UK and on Disney+ in other parts of the world. The story will be released on DVD and Blu-ray very soon in 2024. Continue reading

At this point, three episodes of Series 10 of ‘Call the Midwife’ have been transmitted on BBC TV. I of course haven’t seen them yet. I’m currently watching the seasons set before Series 10. I’ve finished watching Series 7 and I’m looking forward to revisiting Series 8 and 9 before I watch Series 10 on DVD, which I’ve pre-ordered from Amazon.co.uk. Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
I’d like to give a quick review on the 2017 Christmas Special of ‘Call the Midwife’. My parents and I watched this Christmas Special on Christmas Day. This past year, my parents have been getting into ‘Call the Midwife’. This is a TV drama series about midwifery set in the 1950s and 1960s. Continue reading
