The time-travelling sci-fi show is set hundreds of years from now, and stars Eric McCormack and MacKenzie Porter.

In the world of Travellers, humans have almost been wiped out, but have discovered how to send consciousness back in time to a host body.

In a bid to prevent the human race being decimated, humans in future return to the 21st century, where they try to save humanity.

Who knows what impact today’s explosion had on the fate of humanity… We’ll just have to watch Season 2 to find out.
