Sliders.

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.

yea i remember that! had some fat guy that looked like Pavarotti as the token British Scientist.

[flammableBen]

the fat guy ended up being the dwarf in lord of the rings. He'd already been in indiana jones i think

[Leggett]

indeed!

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.

[Nomoreheroes]

indeed!

I think you'll find he prounounced it 'Indy'.

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!
