It was shown in the early 90's (I think) and featured a Cardiff Gang using some kind of basement as their hideout. They showed you how to make multi-coloured milk and how to step through a postcard, but the best thing about the whole series was "Mad" Ben Slade!
Through most of the series, he kept telling the gang that he'd invented a time machine, but no one believed him, so eventually, he left the gang. Before he left, he gave them a piece of paper, saying "If you ever need me, call this number." A couple of episodes later, the gang needed Ben, so they rang the number that he'd given them, and it was a public phone box in the middle of the high street that Ben just happened to be walking past as the phone rang! I thought it was hilarious!
At the end of the series, it transpired that Ben had actually built a time machine (That was a large frame-like construction in the middle of a field) that was powered by the multi-coloured milk that the gang had made earlier in the series. The last episode ended by showing the gang walking into one side of the time machine and not emerging out of the other side.
This series of WDY has stuck with me for the last 25 years. Does anyone else recall this particular series?
