The Time Tunnel (1966)
S01E05 The Last Patrol
Episode Overview
Tony and Doug find themselves transported to Louisiana during the War of 1812, where they pilfer some uniforms that hold passes from General Jackson. Soon, they are captured by British troops under Colonel Southall. In the present, the Project team brings in Southall's descendant, a British general known for his brutal tactics against American forces. In the past, Colonel Southall coerces Tony into leading a scout to enemy lines to relay information and launch a signal rocket for an attack. After being captured, Tony and the scout manage to escape. Meanwhile, the present-day Southall, who is terminally ill, seeks to return to the past, and Kirk reluctantly grants his wish. As Doug aids Tony, the signal rocket misfires, resulting in a devastating loss for the British forces.
