Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

psmith-691-112444 This was a truly great series; the BBC at their peak. Why they never followed it up is a mystery. Two boys find a machine, which can fly and do all sorts of things. They work out what the controls do, what fuel it needs and, most importantly, how to stop it getting them into trouble! In the course of the series, they find themselves learning Latin, physics, archaeology, Roman history and much more which bewilders their teacher, as they were not considered good scholars. They eventually find out it is actually a 'lifeboat' from an alien spaceship. The two boys have very different personalities, but compliment each other and are firm friends. The interplay between them is a joy to watch, and the way they tackle difficulties inspiring.Why it hasn't been released on DVD I don't know! I'm sure it would sell like hot cakes!

Dan I stumbled across this gem on YouTube. After 10 minutes I was hooked and watched the whole thing back to back in an afternoon.It is a combination of a very clever script, great special effects and of course the two lead actors. Like all great TV it works on many levels.There are the science fiction aspects which make logical sense, and much of the fun is watching the boys figure out how everything works - and the hilarious results when things go wrong, which they often do. The performance from the school headmaster is priceless as he wrestles with a puzzle - why are these previously academically challenged boys suddenly interested both in laser physics and Latin ? Both boys understand the terrible consequences if Aquila's power is misused, its weapons can kill millions or just knock someone out - just by selecting menu options on a screen. They agonise over each decision and show a maturity most adults never achieve. Even the more Gung-ho Geoff has doubts about continuing.But the real heart of the story is that both boys have absent fathers, and I get the feeling that their deep friendship is a substitute. There is a real sadness left unspoken throughout the series, which makes the ending quite emotional.14 years later Craig Vye looks rather lost on Hollyoaks - he deserves better material than that.

c.matthews When I first saw this program I was addicted. It is defiantly one of the best Kids programs going. It is funny and serious at the same time. My fave charactors are Mrs Baxter and Tom. It would be so good if they made a new series.
