Title: Sliders.
Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, March 12, 2006, 23:41:48
Anyone else remember this sci-fi classic? Used to be randomly shown on bbc2 at around the 6/6.45 time. Used to love it when I was a youngun.

Downloaded the first episode (dobuble length pilot eppisode) and it's pretty good. Think I'll bother to download the rest of the series.

John Rhys Davies,the man is an absolute legend.

I've met him a few times and he is an absolute gentleman, always got time for people.

Sliders was quality and ran for a few series.  I think a lot of the actors left after a few series but it kept going for a while with a new cast but wasn’t the same.

Sliders was ace. I wish that they would show it again. Tbh programmes are so shit nowadays I keep seeing loads of classic shows are on UKGold and think 'I wish I had that channel'  :(

Is Sliders on a channel (probably on the sci-fi channel but I don't get that either)

Sliders was ace, though the monsters that chased them (aliens or something?) used to scare fuck out of me!
