This week we cover Time After Time (1979), starring Malcolm McDowell, David Warner, and Mary Steenburgen. Within the first 10 mins, we quote Samuel Beckett, misunderstand the year in which the film is set and unmask the identity of Britain's most notorious serial killer. Enjoy!
As is expected from a podcast about time travel, this first episode is not actually our first episode! We've moved the order around as we wanted to honour the recent passing of David Warner, who features in this recording we made many, many months ago.
There's no need to watch the film beforehand, although obviously it will be littered with ‘spoilers’. But, we think 43 years is enough of a head start to reveal plot points…
Our first bumper episode is in two parts, both available now!

Welcome to Time Babble!
“Babbling about time travel movies since 1888”.
A comedy and film podcast exploring the wonderful world of time travel films in all their multi-dimensional glory. We love the unusual, the lost and the little known, avoiding the more obvious time travel choices. Although the occasional classic might slip through the net.
Every episode, we babble about a film that's specifically about time travel, or that generally plays with the concept of time.
We get excited about the good bits, poke fun at the bad bits, and radically change the plot if we think it’s possible to improve the film. Sometimes we even get serious, and throw in the odd, ill-informed TED talk. Although we easily get distracted from the facts, and the conversation usually wanders way off topic.
We often end up loving the faulty films, and finding fault with films we love. Time Babble is as fickle as you are! We’re also duty bound by our cultural mandate to end each episode with POETRY, so do listen out for our internationally renowned, Nobel-awarded ‘Haiku or Limerick’ segment.
Lastly, whilst enjoyment is guaranteed, feedback is of course welcome. As long as it's hastily scrawled on colourful notepaper and sent to our postal address. And doesn't make us cry. As a wise rabbit once said, ‘If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all’.
