Now you're too lowbrow! But closer..
So 1960s TV programme
Not as highbrow as Hitchhiker's Guide, not as lowbrow as Bill & ben but not far off.

If no one can get it before end of Thursday I will throw a possum.

Got it " The Undersea world of Jack Cousteau" - saw it in the 70's but I think it was older.

Not Captain Cousteau on Calypso sorry.  Bill & Ben was the closer age demographic

John Craven with a time machine traveling  back to the sixties?

The time machine wouldn't have had to be that powerful as Newsround started in the 70's.

He was wearing trunks.

Where did the notion that the answer was a good movie come from?

Although I embarrassingly own a copy of it somewhere from the second hand bin at united video a few years back.

Do I win a prize? 

As for J82s, it sounds like something that'd be in the intro of a 60s show. I think the only TV shows I can directly recall i have seen as being from the 60s is thunderbirds and a number of hanna barbera cartoons. Don't recall that line being in the intro of any of them.

It sounds (and looks) pretty funny after googling it just now. Had never heard of it though, much like whatever the answer is to J82's question.

 

Not a movie / TV show, just a question. Should be pretty easy compared to Dog Soldiers!
