Reach for the Stars: The Starwatch Story

A glimpse of what might have been?

Back in the early 1990s, a stunning new science fiction series Starwatch premiered on British television. It was a massive success and became a global phenomenon, giving its star Jon Pertwee his greatest role as Jason Havlin… well perhaps in an alternative reality this is what happened. Who knows? But here, on this Earth, all that remains is, quite literally, a teaser of what might have been. In this new documentary, we delve into the story of Starwatch, how it was created and why it never reached our screens.
