Title: Not a film but an 80s TV series. Post by: Justy on November 27, 2007, 07:58:59 PM I'm sure that someone knows this one. This was either on Nickelodeon or USA. It was either a British or Canadian production. There are three kids one is a tall black kid, one was a white girl, the third was a younger white boy. They were working for Merlin (I think) or a Merlin-like wizard. They were after an artifact which had a funky name. The whole point of the series (I think) was to keep this artifact out the hands of the bad wizard and his henchmen. Had a bit of Dr. Who feel to it, but with kids. I watched it all the time after school.
Any ideas? Title: Re: Not a film but an 80s TV series. Post by: LilCerberus on November 27, 2007, 08:47:14 PM It sounds like part of the Nickelodeon series "The Third Eye", which would make it somewhat difficult to track down, since it was taken from several other BBC mini-series'.
If I recollect proper, the good wizard's name was Roscoe, who had made this maze or labyrinth that could transport people to different parts of time, & the three kids where looking for a stone called The Nidas. Oops! Just double checked. Into the Labyrinth http://imdb.com/title/tt0081877/ (http://imdb.com/title/tt0081877/) A couple of other titles from The Third Eye were; The Haunting of Cassie Palmer http://imdb.com/title/tt0245629/ (http://imdb.com/title/tt0245629/) Children of the Stones http://imdb.com/title/tt0075491/ (http://imdb.com/title/tt0075491/) Under the Mountain http://imdb.com/title/tt0202769/ (http://imdb.com/title/tt0202769/) Title: Re: Not a film but an 80s TV series. Post by: Justy on November 27, 2007, 09:02:07 PM Hmmm... I'm not sure about that. I remember the trio of kids were working together. It certainly fits the early Nickelodeon era and was an import to the U.S. I had to see the three kids.
