Let me introduce myself. My name is Joseph Bridgeman. I am a moderately depressed, reclusive insomniac with a failing antiques business and a constant headache.

I have places to go, things to do, people to avoid, vinyl to buy.

Downstream is a contemporary, kick-ass time-travel series with attitude. Expect wit, comedy and well observed characters and of course, the unexpected! What would you do if you could travel back in time?
