Al Takes the Quantum Leap

Post by elwaclaret » Tue Nov 09, 2021 5:41 pm

Dean Stockwell most famous for playing Al the angel in Quantum Leap has died today aged 85.

I’d forgotten all about Quantum Leap it was huge in the early 90’s having started on BBC2 in 1990.

RIP Dean Stockwell (just announced by NYTimes)

I knew he'd been a child star, but I couldn't remember which well known film he starred in.
So I cheated and googled it. He was the titular Kim, alongside Errol Flynn.

RIP

He was great in Bev Cop 2 as well.

Used to love Quantum leap when I was a kid... he was a great character.

RIP Dean...used to LOVE that show when I was younger.

He never did get home properly, did he?!

Al was the computer hologram, right?

Great program, I’ve just been watching it on the SiFi channel on sky on Sundays.
RIP Dean
