Crime Traveler 8 ep Series:  Crime Traveller Trailer address: --AT LATER DATE-- (STORYLINE) Detective Jeff Slade teams up with scientist Holly Turner, whose late father has created a time machine that can travel back several hours. Together they solve mysteries using the device,  PLOT (Ep 01): Jeff Slade's world is turned upside down when he discovers his friend Holly has a secret. She can travel in time.IMDb User Review (Ep 01): Well, It Was The Introduction (Mar 22, 2010 by richard.fuller1) Warning -  Spoilers:The first episode showed how Jeff Slade found himself with Holly Turner traveling back in time. The show takes the fascinating approach in that they can only travel back a couple of hours at best. I think the longest they venture back is over a day. This show tangles mostly with the time paradox of the time-traveled Jeff and Holly running the risk of encountering the regular Jeff and Holly. The first episode, basically the setup, deals with Jeff and Holly solving the crime while avoiding themselves arriving later on, as well as the detective team, because if they see Jeff and/or Holly, they will wonder why they are there.Not entirely sure how Jeff solved who the murderer was, tho it was apparent how he solved how the murder was committed, but it was all fun.+ In this instance, the time paradox risk is with Jeff and Holly posing as those poor caterers. Future encounters gradually get extremely daring. PLOT (Ep 02): When Holly's aunt is murdered, she and Slade travel back to find out who is responsible, only to be arrested for the crime herself. IMDb User Review (Ep 02): Romanadveratrelunder (Mar. 27, 2010) Warning - Spoilers!!!: Mary Tamm's classic name from her tenure on Doctor Who as the Doctor's time-travelling companion, called Romana for short.Tamm appears in this episode of Crime Traveller as Holly Turner's snippety aunt ("Holly, what a lovely surprise, or at best, a surprise.") Holly wasn't close to Aunt Mary as it had been over a year since she last saw her. Aunt Mary is murdered, poisoned, in a restaurant, so Jeff and Holly time travel to solve her murder. Holly then makes the incredible mistake and visits her aunt on that same fateful morning, thereby making herself a liar when she had said she hadn't seen Aunt Mary, who was leaving a sizable inheritance to Holly, for about a year. Very suspicious. Holly now finds herself in jail and the clock is ticking. Jeff meanwhile is questioning the three suspects, all of whom were at the table with Aunt Mary during the murder. An astonishing situation with a lift (called an elevator in the states) and persons trapped inside gives an intriguing perspective on time travel, as do many situations in this series. Another topic for discussionolly left her red jacket in the prison cell, as well as her other personal effects at the prison desk. Would those items have vanished, or would Holly who emerged from the time room now be able to retrieve them from their locations? ** The non-profit streaming of the commercial free, quality films I have very much enjoyed and therefore uploaded to archive.org, are for educational purposes.
