Which decade for a look about?

Great question this as you cannot use it to your advantage.

I’m a 70s born so anything before I guess.

As there’s no gain or fortune to be made….Maybe wartime Second World War. Just to see and feel and understand what everyone went through for real appose to books and old film of the time.

I was born in 1984.

I’d love to go back to the summer of 1996….family holiday to Ireland, Britpop and indie music at its zenith, watching Gazza and England at Euro 96

Great times

Sorry I realise the point of the article was more about understanding a time in history, rather than reminiscing.

I’d probably therefore choose the 1910s to get a feeling of what it was like when the First World War broke out, and how Europe looked back then

If you're a Reform voter it would probably be the 1950's but they wouldn't stay very long once reality came crashing into their romanticised fictional view of it.

Sorry if someone has already mentioned but definitely the 66,000,000 BCE decade, the 9.99 years in the lead up the the asteroid wiping out the dinosaurs. And I get to come back just as one is about to eat me but the asteroid just takes them out in time and I come back to here. Like in Platoon when the bad guy is about to kill Charlie Sheen but then the planes come over and wipe everyone out.

Now would you not feel alive after that?

67,000,010 - 67,000,000 BC. Best chance to spot a T Rex without being around for the big extinction thingy

The mid 50s so that I could pump my gran and then kill myself with the assumption that I would then come to life as the baby I created in the 50s as a boomer and live a prosperous life and deride other generations for not having that opportunity.

Yes.

Although you can go back to a decade you lived in, to get a more accurate take on it than from your memory, if you wanted to.

Interesting you’d assume that would be my motivation, not the music or obvious charms of that decade.

If you ever travel back in time, don't step on anything, because even the tiniest change can alter the future in ways you can't imagine.

I dunno, given the way it's going probably best to stamp around, kill everything you can get your hands on

Yeah that's all well and good Mr every time travel film quote guy, but we're talking about bending the laws of physics here. Why is it just isolated to this one time that you do it and then time just magically resumes back to normal after that? Time could just start going backwards, so anything you ever do won't matter. Step on something? Who cares? That's in the future, which we are moving away from by going backwards now.

Late 1800s, probably Paris. Would be interesting to see perhaps a decade going way back to say the pyramids construction or maybe stonehenge to see what the fack was going on. Going back to the second world war would be fascinating as well.

Maybe the 2000s, I was told United were good once but I sure as hell can't remember.

But not fascinating? Both my parents lived through the second world war so heard a lot over the years, can't even imagine the insanity of being sat on a beach or something and watching streams of bombers just flying over heading north to bomb the shat out of Coventry or going the other way and bombing Dresden.
