Unusual sci-fi rom-com originally broadcast as a BBC Play For Today but has lost that attachment in subsequent VHS and DVD releases which put it together with its sequel Another Flip for Dominick as a twinpack. A time traveller returns to London in his flying saucer from 150 years in the future and has some jolly adventures. Gently funny and a good storyline which camouflages some logic gaps - enjoyable fluff but surprisingly memorable.

Rejects
- a Granada estate which I thought was a Cortina estate

Lots of other glimpsed stuff - more Cortinas, Transits, Heralds, a Capri etc, but nothing deserving a capture.

For impdb, dateable to 2130
