- John and Stephen find themselves with two mysteries to investigate-the possibility that Stephen's new teacher Elizabeth M'Boah is a Tomorrow Person and some worryingly accurate paintings of alien planets.

We blinked and got old.
Now we're just Yesterday's People.
I still jaunt and talk to people without moving my lips
The good old days of my childhood next to my siblings watching this fantastic series
Just makes me smile seeing that old Thames TV ident 😀
Looking back the 1970s and 80s were a golden age for children's tv
That's because you were a child then.
@@barnbersonol Yes, that's always a factor. But there also was a substantive difference morally.
This series (amongst many similar ones) should be repeated on one of the myriad retro digital channels. I absolutely loved it, as a kid. :)
goosebumps on the intro music
40 years later
I play it still, thanks to TH-cam
Yeah, it scared me back in the days, now I'm came back to ask what the series are all about.
Of all the episode stories this is the one I remember most. One of my fave childrens series...alongside The Changes, Children of the Stones, Ace of Wands, Timeslip....
Changes was pretty scary..
@@leonmorgan1158 The final episode of The Changes scared the shit out of me soooo much. Awh 😃
@@hopebgood for me it was the first episode that was frightening.. society just went crazy..
Children of the stones was seriously scary. Especially the opening titles and music.
@@leonmorgan1158 I liked being scared by kids tv back in the day.
One of my favourite episodes. TIM has some of the best dialogue here. Stephen: "I think she saw me halfway through a jaunt!" TIM: "Then her reaction should be interesting!"
Haven't seen this series's since I was a teeny bopper. Thanks.
And I must say that Elizabeth is just as cute as I remember her..😉😍
Classic!! Takes me right back to my youth, the days of innocence without the chaos that we now live in. 👍
Maybe for you but the blacks we always got terrorize by your kind
It was chaos, only that you didn't know.
Hey just wanted to say THANK YOU for posting this. Loved this as a kid, haven't even thought about it in years.
Hello from the end of 2022! Thanks again to www.youtube.com/@CosmicEnergy123 for uploading this story arc in particular; not usually one for nostalgia but I was just telling someone about it in the context of the introduction of colour TV here. *chills* 🤩
Ahh the nostalgia from watching this. It was more or less the only sci-fi series available when I grew up and I absolutely loved it! I remember being particularly impressed with the episode where aliens are using remote controls to open cabinets, so futuristic! :)
Couldn't wait to rush home from school and stick the t.v. on for the Tomorrow People. Brilliant👍
Oh, can't believe I found it. I used to watch it in the early seventies. I liked it so much I remember I recorded the musical theme in my tape recorder!
Gosh, how I wanted that was true...I wanted to be one of them! To able to teletransport like that.
Careful what you wish for. I had an ability called maladaptive dreaming, and was able to live within tv series of my choosing. I experimented rather dangerously with the Tomorrow People, before Blakes 7 Obsession.
The actress who played the teacher ended up running office skills courses and she was my teacher a few years later.
+Zoe Bremer Did you ask her if she would like to 'jaunt' with ye?
William Forsters in Tottenham by any chance ?
Really ? Funny how life turns out.
She's apparently a child psychologist now. She was my favourite character in this whole show. when I was a kid.
@@toddles9 They wrote some good stories with Elizabeth. She was my favorite character as well.
I think the arrival of Eliabeth Adare lifts the acting skills of the show considerably,the awful Kenny and the over acting Carol are quietly forgotten.
I used to watch these when they were rebroadcast on Nickelodeon in the early 80's.
I grew up during the 1970s, and watched this programme. I was in Junior school at the time, a wonderful time. Elizabeth could have been my teacher anytime ;-) I did have a crush on her.
I Think Any "Red- Blooded" Male Would Have A Crush On Elizabeth Adare !
@@chrisgibb7978 O...K...
Yes, she was lovely.
In my mid teens when this was shown and fell `Hook, Line & Sinker` for Elizabeth Adare! Ah! Teenage crushes!
I wanted to be a tomorrow person.Just could not break out.
This used to be televised on a Friday tea time I think. It would be on about the time we had fish and chips. It was an amazing programme that really fired my imagination. We used to play it in the play ground at school....put our hands in our belts, close our eyes, move to another position and open them again....hey presto we had jaunted! And as for that theme music....well that got into your mind and worked its magic after the opening clip, transporting you mentally into a new world. Its a piece of theme music that is almost timeless; it would still work just as well today in the 21st century. Brilliant. Thanks for posting.
DIBBY40 I thought it was shown on Monday evenings?!!😀
TEA TOIME AYE CHAP?!!
you've got a superb memory
In Britain in 1974, it was screened at ten to five on a Monday. Just before it, was a prog called Clapperboard, with Chris Kelly. We watched Clapperboard, absolutely dying for the Tomorrow People to come on.
Great series, and this is one of my favourite stories from it. Thanks!
Devatipan I agree. I was obsessed with this show in the 80s when it was on Nickelodeon. Loved Elizabeth.
@@augusteric2522 Didn't it air on CITV
Loving the flares.😀 At the time, we all thought they were cool.😂
guys with normal chests too , back before steroid abuse among male actors to please female viewers .
A superb series. It suffered some from budget constraints (some episodes feel like they were given 5p - the Spidron costume was a white sheet) but the scripts were strong, the premise was sound and the actors did a good job considering their limited training and the intense pressure. They had to compete with Doctor Who or be cancelled and disgraced. Also, Roger Price was hamming up his cameos to pressure Thames to give him a comedy show. I'd say this show did far better than anyone had expected and has aged well - Big Finish clocked up six audio seasons before Luminere raised the price to kill it.
Props to all involved as a kid I lapped up stuff like this.
Ace of Wands always had me completely entranced as well despite suffering an equal sized slice of ham that i just accepted back then .
It seemed that most things that had some creative writing were a bit of risk and had to deal with limited budgets
I don't think the `Vanishing Earth` because of the `Spidron's` resemblance to the KKK would get a terrestrial repeat these days. The character `Ginge` (Michael Standing) even refers to the villain's resemblance. Doubt that would be allowed now.
My God how posh are they? :-D I seriously didn't remember it being like that at the time.That school is supposed to be a regular English comprehensive & they all sound like they're at Eton! But after watching a few bits & pieces of other contemporary shows...they're all like that! It really surprised me that my brain had filtered that out over the years.Thinking about it I guess in the early 70s kids like that were the only ones whose parents could afford to send them to stage school
Hi missmary, im glad i could bring a little joy to you. Though i must say, its extremely difficult getting a clean upload without the audio going out of whack. Though most of these episodes are pretty good.
Brilliant! Great memories and this series got me interested in sci Fi!
Gerry Andersons Thunderbirds, and a forerunner of the Tomorrow People, Timeslip, got me into sci fi. Another forerunner to the Tomorrow People apparently was Ace of wands.
An excellent show. Sometimes the acting was less than stellar but for it's time it was brilliant, lots of good moral tales and very exciting for a kid. Thanks for putting this up.
the first thing I watched on a colour Tv at my grandparents house. Loved it.
Oh remember this one well watched it bk in the day got to love the tomorrow people a 70's classic
I remember this back in the mid seventies on our national tv station in Trinidad and Tobago but It was on a black and white television
OMG I FOUND IT!!!!
Maybe i can finally finish that portion with Belor that evil woman.
I can barely remember the series as it is and her name is the ONLY name i remember after ALL these years!
Thank you sooo much!!!
I love the character of Elizabeth, and Elizabeth Adare is gorgeous in every way :-).
I was looking at an old episode of "you and me" with wordy and i always thought it was part of that programme, remembered this show but couldnt remember the name...then it popped into my head. Amazing seeing it again.
Great post thank you! Taken me right back... So much so I can actually smell Alphabet Spaghetti on toast! 😉🇬🇧
Loved this programme as kid thanks for the memories 😊
i grew up on reruns of this on nickelodeon here in the usa 81-to like 88. i figured at the time it must have been from 70's u.k. my favorite show as a kid growing up in the united states.. do any brits remember watching this actually in the 70's and do you ever find reruns of it over there???
MrLarrylocken I remember it well. The best thing about it was the sensational theme tune and stunning title sequence.😀
wonderful memory's, great series. ...
Fun fact. The Blues and the Greens were factions in Constantinople that supported opposite chariot racing teams. Sort of like football hooligans.
When someone says 'fact', you know it's going to be bullshit.
The show used to be on Nickelodeon back in the 80s
@67markyboy
John fixed it. The 'funny lights' were bits of hyperspace breaking through, and John 'found a way' to do it without the funny lights. Not much more is said than that, but it is mentioned in this episode.
I wish she was my teacher when I was bullied, LOL
When I was 9, Elizabeht Adair was like an angel to my eyes! Absolutely stunning girl: I never knew humans were available that beautiful! Pity Roger Price wasn't a better writer and the budget was so laughable.
Loving these - takes me back to my childhood :-)
I loved this show back in the day. I remember this series it gave me nightmares but still loved it
I loved this show! I actually met Elizabeth near my school in north london I think she lived in the area am speaking in the 70's Does anyone know are these available on dvd?
was born in 1970.but this still cuts the mustard! used to scare me witless along with space 1999. chocky needs some reevaluation.
I just noticed something. When Stephen and Elizabeth are talking, Elizabeth leaves the apple on the desk. After she leaves and Robert comes in the camera shows the teacher's desk and the apple is gone at 12:09 on the video. Interesting.....
Magnifica serie. me encanto de niño y me sigue fascinando de adulto. el tema musical de la serie me fascina. siempre espere y aun lo sigo haciendo... Ser Uno de Ellos.
FRANCISCO RODRIGUEZ AGUAYO yo también. Recordaba vagamente las escenas. Pero nunca olvide la serie. Y es verdad, sigo esperando ser uno de ellos.
igual de niño la mire y nunca dejo de gustarme esta serie , y el intro de alguna forma me hacia viajar
I like their school bell, ours was a version of the alarm siren for a nuclear attack
Loved this show
OK so it was mostly on a shoestring budget at times but then again so was sapphire and steel, still so entertaining in Mar twenty three. The seventies were sure different. 🙏❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️🙏
Sapphire and Steel was pretty good.
@@hopebgood absolutely 👍😎👍🏴 Jan twenty four
I've always loved this show
Loved this as a kid.
great post -- cheers
The music brings back memories!
Composed by Dudley Simpson, who went on to do the Blakes 7 theme.
Remember this well great time growing up in the 70s and 80s
Tim lets 'Jaunt'. This series even had David Bowie input at one stage of this series. Plenty of Charlie must have been inhaled!
As a kid, I tried so hard to teleport. LOL. Now, I meditate.
A man one said to the Buddha; "After 20 years of intense meditation technique I can now levitate over the river."
To which the Buddha replied: "You've wasted your time, for a penny you can take the ferry."
I remember playing the scenes next day at school. And trying to teleport yourself with your "Snake Belt" 70's Fashion" Teleporting was walking to the other side of the playground 😂
@@fouriertransformed4677 True my friend
@@johngill7776 Yes!
great Sci fi Show from the70's , like all good Sci Fi, it came from the 70's
I liked the show, loved the music & graphics! Kids at my school thought I was Steven in the show; they also thought I looked like David Cassady...Not a bad thing. 😃 😃 😃 😃
ADOREI. SIMPLESMENTE FANTÁSTICO.👍
Love the Psychedelic Light Shows. All we need now is a Grateful Dead soundtrack
This was one of the 1st shows on Nickelodeon in 81'-82'ish
yes. I, first, have seen this show in that time, also.
that and "You Can't Do That On Television". Early Nick at its best.
Where is carol
Imaginative tv for children. Sadly a lost art in the noughties. I bought the original series on DVD from Amazon in about'15. So it's still out there ! There is also an 'appreciation' group on Facebook.
looks like some of the flintlock boys as classroom extras
great seeing this again another one was timeslip
lovely to find and watch, and interesting.
i left the u.k. in 1980 at 10 for the u.s., and since then i have strongly demarked 70's british childrens' tv against 80's american childrens tv, every example of which was driven by an antagonist, who ruined everyone's fun until the gang get together and kick their ass, make a cheesy pun, everybody laughs, roll credits. conversely, 70s british programmes i remembered (wombles, bagpuss, magic roundabout, clangers) all featured problem solving by cooperation and no strict antagonists.
John is a “smasher”. Actually, all the main guy characters are smasher. Lucky Elizabeth. :)
I thought Stephen was dreamy (when I was 8)
I remember this story (but not all the details) when it first came out. Interesting to see it again.
"Miss, why can't I go outside & play rugger? I can't draw for shyte!"
If you "jaunted" from your try line to the other teams try line would that be offside? lol
The title sequence and theme are astounding for what is a kids show with the most appalling acting. Don't get me wrong,I love it and look back at it with much affection. But boy were they poor bunch of thespians...
Ah! BUT Elizabeth Adare Doesn't Have To Act !
i remember this it scared me as a child in the 80s
+lardyguts2 The theme series was futuristic, series was quite vile.
Thank you for posting this.
Let us all write to Talking picture,s...to see if they would show it.😊😊😊😊
From 3:19 on 'til 5:25 make it all worth it! On top of this show being absolutely great John is always fervent, fine and foxy especially this episode. Woooo!!!
My teacher never reacted like that when she caught me halfway through a jaunt 👀
😂😂😂😂😂😂🤪👍
@12:29....did a tomorrow person really ask tim what 12 times 3 is?
TIM: Don't push her too hard, Stephen.
STEPHEN: Okay, I won't. [next scene] YOU'RE A TOMORROW PERSON, ELIZABETH!!! JUST LIKE MEEEEEEE!
Lol! It was an age of flairs and mullets.
I used to enjoy this series when I was a kid. I loved Sci Fi and TP had some great ideas and very entertaining for a teenager,especially one trying to escape the boredom of suburban England at the time...But probably, even then, I winced at some of the acting . American kids then seemed to be far more natural when they were in dramas, British kids often looked like they were doing an amateur school play. Nowadays with most schools in the UK teaching drama, the standard of acting amongst teenagers in the UK is at least as high as American kids.
I was only 6/7 years old when this was on, but, that theme music used to scare the shit out of me - it used to make me feel ill.
loved the into music
This take's me back , lol when i was living in Poole...
Sadly.. .Philip Gilbert..Tim.....passed away a few year,s ago.
I was crazy about this serie,s..😊😊😊😊
It won't be the first time an adult has walked in on a teenager halfway through a jaunt ...
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!!
I wish I could have been in charge of the American reboot. I would have updated a few things while keeping the premise and events of the original series intact. I would not have rebooted it but continued it in the original universe.
Now I know why I used to fall asleep during this series whilst being minded as a six year old. It was for good reason. The Time Tunnel was so much better. Even the Little House On The Prairie was!
If you were six this was way over your head. It probably still is way over your head.
Where I am from it's called "The Blue & The Red" "Crips & Bloods" How Ironic but violently true....
Sadly,..peter Vaughan Clarke. ...passed away.....last August.😢😢😢😢
Feather cuts galore ☺
great stuff
Ladies and gentleman take note. Carol, Kenny and Ginge got an explanation. Steven, Tyso and Chris were shipped off without a second glance.
Ahh the real Tomorrow people..not the American wannabe.
Yes!
Amen! Those opening titles still give me the chills.
The 2014 version wasn't great, but the 90's version that aired on Nickelodeon was really good.
The American series was utter crap ! This British series was pure gold.
AWESOME SCHOOL DAYS REMEMBERED
"goodnight miss"................ahh........ polite kids..........
"Keep An Eye On Robert" count: 4:48 (one for the serial so far)
John, *sigh* I had the biggest crush on him
Eu não perdia um capítulo. Pois mi sentia muito familiar. Agora entendo logo logo estaremos nessa condição. 5D 🙏🖖🤚
