Two things that sci-fi fans of my vintage used to do that are now obsolete. One was holding a microphone up to the television's speaker to record an episode of Doctor Who or Star Trek. The other was taking photographs of the telly.

Remembering the wonderful James Darren on what would have been his 90th birthday. For many fans, he's Star Trek DS9's lounge-singing hologram Vic Fontaine. But to this 1960s kid, he’ll forever be my childhood hero, Dr Tony Newman, lost in the depths of The Time Tunnel.
As a boy I'd go somersaulting around the play park in a green turtleneck sweater, pretending to be Tony arriving "somewhere along the infinite corridors of time". Happy memories.

Look, why don't you let me tell
the Captain that you didn't mean
what you said and that you
won't mention it again.TONY
I can't promise that, Althea. Not
when I know what's going to happen.ALTHEA
You don't know! Nobody knows. You can't!Many happy returns to Susan Hampshire, Althea Hall in the pilot episode of The Time Tunnel, "Rendezvous with Yesterday".

Vintage advertisement for The Time Tunnel, featuring James Darren in the natty white jumpsuit he wore in the pilot, posing beside AN/FSQ-7 computer control panels. Those AN/FSQ-7 panels cropped up in many a sci-fi series and movie, but for me they’ll always be the heart of Project Tic-Toc.

Meanwhile, at Project Tic-Toc...
The Time Tunnel team might be struggling to retrieve James Darren, but at least they’ve managed to snag some cups and saucers from the Titanic.

The early morning hours of 15 April 1912, and time is running out for time-tunnellers Doug Phillips and Tony Newman, who remain trapped aboard the sinking RMS Titanic. Only a desperate gamble by their colleagues back at Project Tic-Toc can save them.

@karlos During the course of The Time Tunnel's run, Doug and Tony don't hesitate to use guns when they are forced to. Thankfully, as The Time Tunnel universe was governed by the self-consistency principle, our heroes are unable to create paradoxes or alternate time-lines. The can't change history because they were always a part of it (something the writers of the Big Finish reboot completely failed to understand).

James Darren as Tony Newman and Vitina Marcus as Sarit in The Time Tunnel episode, 'Attack of the Barbarians.'

Just finished watching The Time Tunnel episode, 'Chase Through Time,' and I got to wondering if guest star Vitina Marcus is still with us. Turns out she is and it was actually her 88th birthday yesterday!
Vitina is probably better known to fans of classic Sci-Fi as Athena, 'The Girl from the Green Dimension' in Lost in Space, but here she is in gold face-paint instead from the aforementioned episode of The Time Tunnel.
