Timeslip

Timeslip was a 26-part series about time travel, focussing on children Simon and Liz in which we view threads from different characters' lives at different points in time. All very confusing, so we need an introductory explanation from ITN science correspondent Peter Fairley at the top of the first episode. "Time of the Ice Box" part 6 (14/12/70) is the only surviving colour episode. Mystery surrounds the fate of the other colour masters – ITC records indicate they were destroyed in 1982 as unplayable, but people still hope that copies will surface.
