Crime Traveller was a good try at a sci fi series from the BBC in '97, that sadly never made it to a second season. However Crime Traveller is definatly worth a viewing, and if you can ignore the fact that you will probably guess 'whodunit' before the halfway point and some huge plot holes its fab laid back watching.
The idea for this show sounds pretty good, Science chick uses her dads work to build a time machine in her living room. Solves crimes not by changing things in the past, but observing things and thus, find evidence. Problem is, the script is poor, mainly the dialogue, people just don't speak like that. Maybe later episodes will be better, but as there doesn't seem to be many episodes, seems like the TV execs didn't like it much either.
