I assume you're American A.D.Seagle, as you said "go raid the prop" and instead of "go AND raid the prop". It must seem strange and exciting for you to discover old british tv shows from the 1990s like this? Not only are you experiencing british culture, but old british culture and life from 25 years ago. Not to mention an awesome and underate sci-fi show in a time slot and on channel that doesn't usually show stuff like that.... except BUGS.... another saturday night favourite on UK tv back in the late 90s! See if you can find that too. More james bond style

Here's one "Bosch".

Time travel programmes n movies are always really clever. The idea of bumping into yourself in the past is always a interesting storyline like back to the future part 2.
Darn it. Time travel has so much potential and limited only by our imagination. This is a good series and we need more of them, even better ones - when I think about it I like exploring feeling of nostalgia in the sense that the past always seem a time more free if sometimes more dangerous, I like emotional time dramas, in fact any storytelling without it fails (time after time with Malcom McDowell and other love stories like Kate and Leopld). In this arena we are only limited by our imagination, and it's a serious limit. It's amazing how hard it is to come up with new story.

You can't do an efficiency comparison of the biodimensional transmuter to the flux capacitor. A biodimensional transmuter is of course much better than the flux capacitor. It is a self contained unit. The flux capacitor cannot do much, other than hold a charge, but it will hold more charge than a regular capacitor.
I remember watching these when they originally aired and loved them. I have the DVD. The following Saturday after the end of this series the BBC aired Jonathon Creek's first ever episode and then later Doctor Who. Crime Traveller never returned. It has a cult following and ratings wise it did well. Despite some of it's flaws I personally loved it's quirkiness and it didn't take itself too seriously.

The modus operandi of the first murder was also used in a Death in Paradise episode. Wonder if it's the same writer? Edit: Checked and yes, it is - Anthony Horowitz. Excellent writer.
Now I see where the American series Timeless is based on. It's the same premise, the time machine takes them back to stop crime or changes in history. It's too bad I loved the series bu it was canceled last year.
Timeless was much better than this. Really v good. This is ok. Sue whatsit doesn't seem to be acting as good as she normally does, bad director maybe as she's usually superb.
The writers shot themselves in the foot there didn't they? They could have made use of the fact that you can go back in time and win bets and then use the money to pay for her electronics. But last episode she said that was impossible.
/wow, that's some mix of interesting sci fi shows. I'm a huge fan of red dwarf, in fact, they had a new one recently, especially being all so much older, It was funny. The other two shows, never saw those, but I can guess from Eastenders, it must have been funny.
@@SweetJoyBG Brookside was a UK soap opera set in Liverpool that ran from the 1980's into the 1990's, EastEnders is also a soap from the 80's that is set in the East end of London and is still filming.
My first time watching this. I like time travel films. Don't know any of the actors and it appears English. It does look somewhat interesting, but I like to focus on a main character; so far its Slade and I'm not wild about any of these characters. Hope I can endure this series. Title 1 was "cute". (had its moments)(ls)
Remember, boys and girls, even when in hot pursuit, safety first. Always put on your helmet before you chase after the bad guy. No seat belt is OK, tho.
Is there a compilation for 3&4?... "Disc 2,3,4" Doesn't play continuous choppy buffering. Needs fixing. Episode 1&2 compilation is Excellent. Please fix. Great show so far. Cheers.
Hey, in the 90s I worked for a privately owned phone company. As an employee of the month prize I received a " cordless " phone. The phone and battery were so big and heavy it came with a " bag " that came....with a SHOULDER STRAP so it could be portable. The thing was slightly bigger than a shoe box.
Sue Johnstone is wearing beige tights in the first scene as she steps out of the car. Three minutes later in the scene she is suddenly wearing much darker tights when she is running through the station. She must have gotten a ladder and had to change somewhere during the scene lol.
Plot inconsistency: 1. At 2:42 they hear the car crash from her workroom. 2. Shortly after that, she explains that anything that happened will still happen. This would include them hearing the car crash from her workroom. 3. At 44:03, they are present at the car crash. (In fact they cause it.) But his other self cannot be in the workroom because he is at the victim's house investigating the death. So originally they heard the car crash from her workroom, but "second time around" (so to speak), that doesn't happen. Still, despite some earlier atrocities, the story has gotten interesting enough to continue watching.
Yeh i always thought that, when they return to the flat/room shouldnt they bump into themselves coz they were there at the start before they time travel? Doesnt make sense
I put in my vibrator, set it for 88 miles per hour and we can time travel...HA No seriously Love the 80's .Looks like its gonna be a fun show. I think the same composer did the music for "Inspector Wexford" or is it "Poroit"?
Watched this bk in the day. Got hooked then and watching it again im surprised there wasn't more episodes made
Who else reads the comments to see if it's a one hit wonder.
I do!
I do also. A one hit wonder is still sometimes a good movie!
This is what I like, without even trying, I discover cool, new shows without even trying. This is a great show, I never heard about before.
