The Professor (Felix Aylmer) is showing Susie (Evelyn Dall) around his time machine when it accidently takes off with Tommy (Tommy Handley) and Bill (George Moon) also on board. They are transported to Elizabethan England where they come across Walter Raleigh, William Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth 1, Captain John Smith and Pocohontas. Will our time travellers return?

Tommy Handley's rapid-fire ad-lib energy carries every scene.
Writing
Shakespeare gets roped into a pub brawl. Enough said.

Gloriously cheap sets that wink at their own ridiculousness.
