SUMMARY
The crew of Starbug
encounter their future selves after discovering a
revolutionary time drive. But they don't like what
they've become - complacent, decadent and immoral time
travelers. But the future crew want the present crew's
time drive [theirs has malfunctioned] and are willing to
do anything to get it. As the two Starbugs square off to
each other, a shot is fired and the 'bug is destroyed...
But which one?
CAPSULE REVIEW
A fantastic end to the
season, even if most of the ideas [a revolutionary time
travel device, derelict spaceships, the crew meeting
doppelgangers of themselves] had already been done many
times before. The future versions of the crew are
wonderfully appalling and the climax - which cast serious
doubt as to the future of the show - is one of the best.
