Back in Time for the Weekend

BBC Two - Back in Time for the Weekend, The 90s

The family enter the 90s, a decade where new technology arrives at a dizzying pace.

A family gives up its 21st-century technology and travels back in time. The family enter the 90s, where new technology arrives at a dizzying pace.

In episode five, our family enter the 90s, a decade where new technology arrives at a dizzying pace and increasingly starts to dominate their leisure time. 12-year-old Seth finally gets his hands on a Game Boy and games console, while the arrival of the internet and a mobile phone (albeit in their clunky early guises) marks the start of the road to how we all spend our spare time now.

It is not all about the tech though - Steph and Rob go all Billy Ray Cyrus and try out line dancing, and 90s fitness star Mr Motivator pops along to their local gym to put them through their paces. And it couldn't possibly be the 90s without tribute to the lifestyle programmes that dominated our TV schedules - Tommy Walsh and Linda Barker turn up to help the whole family give the house and garden a real 90s makeover.
