Overview

Biggles - Adventures in Time is a British sci-fi adventure film directed by John Hough, originally released in 1986 and later in the United States in 1988. The film intertwines elements of time travel and classic adventure, following the story of Jim Ferguson, an ordinary catering salesman from modern-day New York City, who unwittingly becomes embroiled in the daring exploits of a World War I pilot named James "Biggles" Bigglesworth.

The narrative kicks off when Jim falls through a time hole to 1917, where he saves the life of the heroic pilot Biggles, played by Neil Dickson. As Jim grapples with his sudden transportation through time, he learns from Biggles' former commanding officer, Air Commodore William Raymond (Peter Cushing), that they are "time twins," linked through their perilous adventures across different eras. Together, they must thwart a German plot that threatens the course of history involving a stolen "Sound Weapon" that Jim helps to destroy with the aid of a Metropolitan Police helicopter.
