dsl ◊ 2016-06-26 19:45	Unusual sci-fi rom-com originally broadcast as a BBC Play For Today but has lost that attachment in subsequent VHS and DVD releases which put it together with its sequel Another Flip for Dominick as a twinpack. A time traveller returns to London in his flying saucer from 150 years in the future and has some jolly adventures. Gently funny and a good storyline which camouflages some logic gaps - enjoyable fluff but surprisingly memorable. Rejects - a Granada estate which I thought was a Cortina estate ... and therefore likely to be this one ... and therefore a probable crewcar. But CLD 235T = 1979 FORD GRANADA 2.8 GL AUTO - Merc coupe truck with 2* role but no better view - something white which puzzled me - best guess is Victor FD - Renault 30 which I had to watch 3 times before I could ID it - distant ADO16, possibly VdP 1300 - a bridge Lots of other glimpsed stuff - more Cortinas, Transits, Heralds, a Capri etc, but nothing deserving a capture. For impdb, dateable to 2130 -- Last edit: 2016-07-28 00:29:28
