    Crime Traveller

    1 9 9 7 (UK)
    8 x 50 minute episodes

    Jeff Slade (Michael French) is a detective with the CID department of the local police force led by Kate Grisham (a scowling Sue Johnston who seemed to have realised from day one what a horrorshow she’d found herself a part of).

    Slade gets results although his approach is somewhat maverick and his methods leave a lot to be desired – and have landed him in trouble more than once.

    Amongst Slade’s colleagues at the department is science officer Holly Turner (Chloë Annett) who has a secret that Slade manages to uncover.

    Holly owns a working Time Machine that was built by her late father. Yes, it was as bad as that description makes it sound . . .

    With its opening episode attracting over 11 million viewers, Crime Traveller initially appeared to be a success – subsequent episodes however showed a marked decline in viewers and this thoroughly miserable BBC series has, over the years, become something of a by-word for everything that is crass and unoriginal about TV. The show was cancelled after one season.
