that had a guy who kept going back through time at random moments, back to world war two I think, he had to destroy a soundwave satalite dish that did tons of damage.
It is from the early/mid eighties, I swear it had Christopher Lambert as the main guy but I have checked his film bio and it is not there.

It is really bugging me...

Anyone have a clue what it could be?

Timecop?

I remember watching this as a kid.
mid eighties I think.

there is a bit in the film where he walks along the road and these work men start using a drill, he thinks he has gone back so he dives onto the floor, he hadn't though so everyone laughed at him....

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm what is it!!?!


I work with someone called Christopher Lambert

He's currently sitting opposite me, talking about Chinese food.


biggles


nope


No,

he's right. it was Biggles.

however, you're wrong, because it's not Christopher Lambert.


It was Biggles.

But you could also throw in The Philadelphia Experiment.


I saw this at christmas time

in 1991.

Really want to remember what it is now too. It was great. That German solider got trapped outside and he died thanks to the sound wave machine.

If anyone here happens to be a student at Leicester university, they keep all the editions of TV Times in the library stack going back to the 70's.

Be a pal and go and look up the film listings for xmas '91?


IT WAS BIGGLES.

IT WAS BIGGLES
IT WAS BIGGLES

ok?


You sure?

thank you thank you!

not being able to remember was driving me mental!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090729/

I know when I watch it again it will probably be quite a laughable film
