Format
Each run of the game involves a team of children taking a 'time-travelling' bus that drove you to a historical reenactment. The children would be involved in a quest to find a Time-Capsule.[1] This challenge would be a race against the clock to succeed and each episode would result in the team being successful, or having to abandon their attempt due to running out of time. Regardless the episode would conclude in the children quickly returning to the bus before it disappeared from that era.
Obscurity
There is very little material available on this show. There are a few short clips [2] and a more detailed summary of the show on Knightmare fan-sites [3] and other gameshow sites.[4]
