"All Earth history has been changed. There is no Starship Enterprise. We have only one chance…"
– Captain James T. Kirk, The City onthe Edge of Forever

Premiering on April 6, 1967, it is one of the series’ most highly acclaimed episodes and a true television classic, with asci-fi based storyline that centres on the implications of time travel.

After a raving Dr. McCoy alters history, Kirk and Spock pursue him through an unusual portal and end up on Earthin the 1930s, where they meet a pacifist whose survival alters the outcome of the Second World War. A doomed love story at its core, the episode providesa thought-provoking commentary on our notions of war and peace; but it is through its blend of suspense, drama, humour and tragedy, as well as its unforgettable dialogue, that The City on the Edge of Forever continues to strike an emotional chord with fans and critics today.
