[DVD Details]
 
 
  • Modern-day American businessman Jim Ferguson (Alex Hyde-White, Catch Me If You Can) is propelled into a one-of-a-kind adventure when he is hurled through time into World War I. His mission could determine the end of the war and destroy his life as he tries to save famed daredevil flying ace Captain James "Biggles" Bigglesworth (Neil Dickson, TV's She-Wolf of London) with the courageous help of Colonel William Raymond (Peter Cushing, Star Wars, in his final role). Ferguson soon finds himself unpredictably flung back and forth between contemporary London and a world of old-fashioned spy games and breathtaking aerial battles. Created by a real-life military hero, Biggles is based on the character from the popular novel series that has enthralled millions of children in Britain and Europe and continues to deliver exciting, nonstop action for the whole family! From cult director John Hough (Escape from Witch Mountain, The Legend of Hell House, The Watcher in the Woods)
