We're a handful of episodes into QUANTUM LEAP and already it delivers one of the best-remember and all-time classic stories, in which Sam jumps into the body of a black chauffeur in the American south in 1955. Racial prejudice ensues, alongside warm-hearted behaviour from our intensely likeable hero, a very funny Al, and characters learning from their wrongs. Superficial similarities to DRIVING MISS DAISY aside, this is big and brave writing.
