Invisible is a 27-part British television series that was produced between 1996 and 1998.

action

The twelve-year-old highly gifted Joe Lucas escapes one day from his archenemy, the thug Jaws, and his gang in the bookstore of Mr. Hays. There he finds the diary of a certain Dr. Lucas Garrow and discovered that he was convinced that you can make things and people invisible. At home, with the help of his chemistry kit and the computer of his best and almost only friend Ali, he works out a chemical formula to implement this knowledge. He manages to create a glowing green spray that he calls Inviz and that can make it invisible. In every episode he experiences a new adventure as an invisible person. However, problems and misunderstandings are also more common, as Ali is the only one Joe let in on his invisibility secret. Joe's parents and especially his older brother Shane are often more than suspicious. Of course, some other scientists are after Joe's Inviz formula, too, such as a former student of Joe's Parkfield School, Mr. Grimble, who - initially looking for a hair restorer - steals the formula.
