Synopsis

Jim Ferguson, an unassuming catering salesman, falls through a time hole into 1917 and saves the life of Royal Flying Corps pilot James “Biggles” Bigglesworth after his photographic reconnaissance mission is shot down. Before he can determine what has happened, Ferguson is returned to the 1980s.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
