The Tomorrow People are the next stage of human evolution: Homo Superior. Gifted with various telepathic abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis and teleportation (known as ‘jaunting’), these special teenagers are also unable to kill. Sworn to defend the Earth from enemies both alien and human, the Tomorrow People operate from a secret base aboard a sentient spaceship buried in the beach of a deserted island.

The original series of ‘The Tomorrow People’ began transmission in 1973, and ran for eight series. Then, in 1992, a new series was produced, with a new cast and improved special effects: this version follows the adventures of Adam, Lisa, Ami, Kevin, Megabyte and Jade, who operate from an ancient and mysterious spaceship buried on the shore of a remote island. The concepts of the original series are still there: jaunting, telepathy and telekinesis, plus the usual exciting adventures, with bizarre and outlandish villains and concepts.

This new series ran for three seasons before ending. But the story doesn’t end there. In 2001, ‘Big Finish Productions’, well-known for their new audio adventures of ‘Doctor Who’, decided to bring together members of the original series in order to release further stories of the ‘Tomorrow People’. A worthy addition to the show’s lore, these stories were particularly dramatic and well-written, and ran for five seasons; although a sixth season was planned [proposed stories: 'Talking to God', 'War of the Slarvians', 'Tandem', 'Godwin's Law' and 'Buartek'], it was never completed - which is a great shame because the previous season ended with a superb cliffhanger!

(Note: in 2013, an American version of ‘The Tomorrow People’ was produced, billed as a remake of the original show. Whilst it used the same basic premise of a group of young people who possess psionic powers as the result of human evolution, even reusing some of the original characters’ names, the show missed the basic point of breaking out / puberty, and never really succeeded in being anything other than just another standard U.S. adventure series. A missed opportunity…)
