DAVID JAMES ELLIOTT AND TERRY FARRELL
STAR IN "CODE 11-14," A SUSPENSEFUL NEW TELEVISION MOVIE TO BE BROADCAST APRIL 13 ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK

Stephen Lang ("Gods and Generals") and Nanci Chambers ("JAG") Also Star

David James Elliott ("JAG") and Terry Farrell ("Becker") star in CODE 11-14, a suspenseful new television movie to be broadcast as the "CBS Sunday Movie," Sunday, April 13 (9:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The thriller follows an FBI agent whose search for a serial killer intensifies when he finds himself and his family trapped on board an international flight with the murderer.

Stephen Lang ("The Fugitive," "Gods and Generals") and Nanci Chambers ("JAG") also star.

Kurt Novack (Elliott) is a skilled FBI agent whose work continually takes him away from his wife, Michelle (Farrell), and their young son, Johnny. Kurt's latest case involves a serial killer who photographs his victims before killing them, then leaves the pictures beside their dead bodies. Thinking they have found a suspect in Australia, the FBI sends Kurt to witness the cross-examination while special agent Andrea Bowman (Chambers) helps out on the home front.

Rather than leave his family, Kurt takes Michelle and Johnny along for the trip. While there, Australian police find the man they believe to be the killer. Although Kurt remains unconvinced, he agrees to return to Los Angeles. When he and his family arrive at the airport to board their trans-Pacific flight home, they are surprised to learn that they have been bumped to another flight without their knowledge.

Flight attendant Justin Shaw (Lang) greets them, and the flight starts off pleasantly until Kurt returns from a short walk to find Michelle beaming after opening a gift box revealing a beautiful pair of earrings. Having thought the earrings were from her husband, she is shocked to learn that not only are they from a stranger, but they were taken off the body of the murderer's latest victim. The flight heats up even more when Kurt's phone rings and it is the killer on the line. Before long, one of the passengers is dead and Kurt realizes his own wife and son are the next targets.

David James Elliott is best known for his role as Commander Harmon "Harm" Rabb in the hit Network series, "JAG." His first television series was "Street Legal" on the CBC. Elliott, who played Terry Parson in "Melrose Place," credits his one-time appearance as Carl the moving guy on "Seinfeld" with opening more doors than all his other experience combined. His other television credits include "Doogie Howser, M.D.," "China Beach," "The Hitchhiker," "Dark Justice," "The Untouchables" and, on the Network, "Knots Landing." His feature film credits include "Clockwatchers" and "The Shrink is In."
