DOES ANYONE REMEMBER . . .
a sci-fi series from late 70's/early80's (?)
about a group of people (3-5 ?) who did
the Sliders/Time Tunnel sort of thing.
I can only remember it vaguely (BIG help !!)
but seem to think they were on an Island
{result of a crash or something} and they found
a 'thing' a bit like a small Apollo re-entry vehicle (??)
Each week they would end up in a different time/place
(JUST like Sliders/Time Tunnel ??)
I remember a BOY amongst the 3/5 people and can
see his face (quite well known) but can't identify him
I remember it being on ITV/CH4 ? on Saturday afternoon/
early evening ????
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
How vague is THAT then ???:blink:
Any takers ???

no but i liked tommorows poeople classic
Sliders is the only one i can remember, but then it wouldn't be that old if i can remember it.
no help at all then eh :d
Did they have a rover which had big wheels on it, I seem to remember a program damn similar but I can't recall what it was called either.
No, Tommorow People was UK and kids.
Sliders was similar but much later (late 80's/90's ??)
This was much earlier / American ??
Don't remember a Rover or vehicle ??
They zipped/zoomed to places (/times?) and can't
remember HOW they zipped exactly ! !
How vague can i be ???
It's NEVER been reshown that i know of.
(but then, it wasn't anything spectacular)
Just bugging me, no-one at work remembers it, but they're
mostly too young.:p
quantum leap ?
nope, that was later too. 80s or even early 90s.
Me! Me! Me! I know!! I know!! It was called The Fantastic Journey and the kid was called Ike Eisenmann. Typical toothy freckly Yank kid who you just wanted to smash his face in. Well I think it was that.

That's IT ! ! !
Well i'm blowed (well, not literally ! :-) )
How'd you remember/know that ????
:)
During my formative years it featured heavily in my Saturday early evening entertainment schedule. There was some other Yank called Jared who was this time traveller alien being who looked just like a typical Yank. I wouldn't want to punch his face in cos he would have been bigger than me but Ike was just asking for it.
Bugger, you got there before me! Great series, almost like Lost in a way. That Ike Eisenmann was also in the series called Escape to Witch Mountain or something like that. That was good too!
