To mark the return tomorrow of the offbeat American sci-fi series, this is another chance to see the feature-length episode starring Scott Bakula Dean Stockwell
Sam Beckett is a brilliant physicist and head of a time-travel experiment which, one day in the mid-1990s, succeeds in working - badly.
From a hi-tech laboratory Sam wakes to find himself in a strange bed, with a strange wife, an unrecognisable reflection in the mirror and a problem. It's 1956 and Sam has "taken over" the body of a test pilot - an interesting career move for someone without the first idea about how to fly.
(The new series begins tomorrow at 9.00pm)
