Looks like it's gone a bit quiet around here so I thought I'd give anyone interested the chance to send me questions for Phillip who we'll be interviewing tomorrow. So if there's that burning question you always wanted to ask TIM now is the chance! but jump to it you only have 24 hours... I'll type out the transcript as before and post the pages on my web site within a few days for all to see. Jackie p.s. Details of the on-line live chat with Nicholas Young will be posted next week so that you can all clear a space on your diaries... I'll need to know how many fans think they can make it to the chat to help make arrangements for ops... So watch this space. p.p.s Would anyone be interested if I tried to arrange a TP convention??? it's the 30th anniversary next year. Of course it would take place in the UK. ---- "May your senses be enlightened and your dreams be fulfilled."

Date: 07 Aug 2001 20:04:40 -0700 (PDT) Okay, seeing as how the list has been rather quiet lately, I'll see if I can get a thread or two going. Here's the first: What if some TV production company gave you a multi-million dollar budget to develop a new version of the Tomorrow People. What would you do? How would you set it up? What ties, if any, would you have with either the Old or New series? ---- So, my thoughts... I'd have a larger cast than the New Series did, with at least 5 regular TPs, and possibly two or three peripheral TPs or normal human characters. There are plenty of excellent shows out there now with larger ensemble casts than that. Obviously the three T's would be requisite powers: telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation. I liked how the New Series TPs didn't need belts or anything to augment their teleporting. I'd add in the posession of special abilities for each TP that go a bit further out in the pscyhic/paranormal department (pyrokinesis, psychometry, etc) I'd want the TPs to be more independent. No TIM or General Damon figure to be the parent figure. I'd place them in a situation in which they are being pursued/hunted because of their abilities, providing a running element of danger to their lives. That's about all I thought of... others? mike __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

There has been conflict between them for a long time, but because of the little fact that they can't kill, they have to resort to setting traps, etc. it has been something that i have been toying with and i hope to post to the fict ring soon. i would work a new series around that, and maybe bring in a few of the 90's characters, i like Jade a lot and think that there is a lot that can be done with her character, Adam as well.

The original series seemed to have the kids in an almost scooby-doo like mystery / problem solving role. Oddly, this has proven to be a successful formula again and again. The presence of Tim provides a convenient deus-ex-machina, while the equipment (jaunting belts, etc.) provide a subtle weakness, easily exploitable. I think I would like to try and get one or two original actors to cameo as adult tps, but in a situation where adults aren't allowed. Imagine, if you will, adults in the world of The Tribe. I think that TPs would have a difficult time surviving, especially in the absence of adult supervision. It would certainly put a limitation and challenge in front of them.

Every time you teleport you either a) displace the local molecules or b) translocate them to your previous location. Either effect would be dangerous - instantaneous expansion is effectively the definition of an explosion (and an instant vacuum where you were before wouldn't be that pleasant, either), and translocation could carry the risk of carrying foreign microbes or matter to an isolated environment. Imagine if you jaunted from Australia to the jungles of Brazil, translocating a few non-native insects in the process... Scary thought, eh? Snicker P.S.

Not to mention colds, flu and other germs - the spread of a pandemic is fast enough now - imagine what would happen if teleportation were added to the mix? I have only a newspaper-reader's knowledge of epidemiology, but I seem to recall that at present, scientists count on having several months from first identification of a new strain to develop vaccines before the disease spreads to significant numbers. Teleportation could negate that entirely. Millions could die (check the records of the last couple of major influenza pandemics - very interesting but rather scary stuff).

Pretending that all the TPs are only-child orphans just gets false after awhile.

Wendy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: J2rider@aol.com Subject: TPDIS: NEW TP-what I would do if... Date: 08 Aug 2001 15:25:30 EDT I guess my fan fics tell all I would do. I posted them on the reg tp fic and the others on the TP adult fic (none are X rated, more like PG or at times R). Anyway what I would do? First: hire anyone from the original show that would want to work as TP. Nick Young is a must have as is Phillip Gilbert. I would hope to get Liz and Stephen as well and would like Tyso, Andrew, Tricia, and Hsue Tai. I would even approach those who played Carol, Kenny, and Peter. These people would have lives beyond what the original show shared with us. They would have moved on a bit but not so much that they are unrecognizable to fans. Second: prepare a large book that details what happened between the end of series one and the beginning of this series. I would consider the NEW 1990 series an alternate universe (and would not at some time in the future of this series be adverse to having Adam, Kevin (either one or both versions), and Megabyte show up from their universe (sorry, all the other characters are OUT for any major appearances). Perhaps the spaceship was from the Galactic Trig in the real universe having passed into the NEW 1990 UNIVERSE. There would be some new TP who have broken out (not more than 15 I would say, maybe even less than that). There are Tps from many other countries including France and Scandanavia, Japan and China. Third: start with 3 new breakouts at one time--all brothers separated at birth (Hansons anyone?) and all from America. Center the story around that mostly. And the governments trying to get to them first. A detective who knows the youngest brother who lived on the streets in California looks for him when he vanishes. It turns out this detective, seemingly our hero we identify with is actually a returned Jedikiah. The Tp are revealed from there SLOWLY at first but not too slowly. By the first hour's end, it will be all set up. Fourth: although not every old villain would appear back to back, there will be reappearances of almost all of them in one form or another over the years. That said, I would want new stories and new adventures. I want them to take place on Earth, in outer space, and in time (past and future) for the beginning. Later on, I would want alternate universe stories but again not too too many right away. MONSTERS, ALIENS, GHOSTS, DEMONS, WITCHES, PARASITES, ILLUSIONS, MUTANTS. DINOSAURS, ALIEN PLANETS AND TIMES. The sun can have life forms too. Different forms of life exist in the universe and different forms of death too. Fifth: tone: different in every story: one can be a comedy (A MEAL FOR THE MOMMA anyone?), one can be darkly serious like an X FILE, another can be romantic, others can be traditional tales. Oddly enough I would want both self contained stories and eventually in maybe a second season I would want continuing arcs and almost soap opera feel to things but I don't want things to drag or be padded out. I also don't want to give people the feel that this series is going to be cancelled. I want the lives of the TP to be real this time out (for the most part). World events will be a part of this as will social issues but I don't want it to be just those. Invasions of Earth, large and small, will happen. The supernatural does exist alongside science and it is not just a matter of the "gods" are aliens from outer space although that will figure into it in part. God does exist, like it or not. Sixth: LABS: many bases and many labs. I would mention these slowly over time. Perhaps John will reopen the Old LabS but there will eventually be labs on the Moon, in Russian Mts, in the Canadian wilderness, Arizona, and on a large space station in outer space orbiting Earth. Location shooting is a must have. Streets, parks, forests, jungles, Australia, London countryside and city, NYC, Long Island, Hawaii, Japan, China, Germany, Scotland, Ireland, etc. Mts, rivers, oceans, valleys, etc. 7th: jaunting bands are still around as are the belts. Transmats are around too. TIM is essential. There are many versions of him all with the same voice and all linked together. Link tables are in. John still collects old cars. He will get married and have kids. Guess to who, Dianne? (Either Liz or Heather). In short, the same old technology stuff, perhaps designed to have a new look but as close to the original stuff as possible. I don't want to change too much. Lab looks will be as close to the original LABS as possible. Both of them. 8th: TIME GUARDIANS: they exist, they develop, they are. Time travel would be a big part of the show over several episodes or special story arcs. It would not dominate. Travel to the past and future of Earth and any other planet is possible. 9th: once a season or so after the first season, I would want to do a crossover with a show or two. BLAKE'S 7, DOCTOR WHO, LAND OF THE GIANTS, LOST IN SPACE, I don't know yet. This may or may not happen though. Depends. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Kathryn Andersen Subject: Re: TPDIS: ALL SOULS Date: 09 Aug 2001 18:40:42 -0600 Wed, Aug 08, 2001 at 11:07:20PM -0400 Sender: owner-tpdis@lists.xmission.com Precedence: bulk Reply-To: tpdis On Wed, Aug 08, 2001 at 11:07:20PM -0400, CMento6653@aol.com wrote: > In a message dated 01-08-08 20:45:01 EDT, you write: > > << > What network? > > Snicker > >> > > > UPN > In the USA, I assume?

The premise was that mostly only girls had it, and it was an extra chromosome. And as they grew older, the ability dwindled over time. Anyone remember that one?

No. The Third Eye was a strand on an American 'cable' channel (Nickelodeon) in the early eighties. The programmes shown were mainly British: HTV's Into the Labyrinth, HTV's Children of the Stones, TVS' The Haunting of Cassie Palmer and Under the Mountain (New Zealand company, i forget the name) I have copies of the first two series of Into The Labyrinth (only the first series was shown in America), but I am searching for Children of the Stones and the Haunting of Cassie Palmer, so PLEASE let me know if you have copies of them.

Liz Skinner has telepathic contact with her mother Jean, but only when in the past or present. Deltawave, devised by Pressman and Cathro in 1993 but only made after Nickelodeon withdrew from the co-financing of TP. Lots of TK in that show. And another one not connected at all: Metal Mickey. Boogie, boogie. Certainly some teleportation in that.

This is on my list of 'to dos' for my own webpage - and for my own use, I find transcripts very useful in writing fanfic. I can't be sure when I will be ready (ATM my spare time is spent copying TP episodes - I've built up a backlog, not least of which was caused by someone's first set of tapes not arriving... I'm going to give up sending tapes to the US soon, they seem to go missing three out of five times - to anyone in the US waiting on tapes from me, you will get them - I'm just going to have a friend send them from the US and I'm waiting for him to go in a months or so).

Thanks, but I was actually looking for Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines. But thanks a lot. Does anyone know which of the four it was?

Personally I think he's US Air Force - but that's based on nothing more than the way he acts.

Based on 'Heart of Sogguth', where John is possessed and comes close to killing but can't quite complete the act, I would say that the prime barrier allows a TP to reach the point of killing, but not to pass beyond it. That's original series, but in the new series, it seems to me to be likely similar - they can come close but not cross the line. *However* - better insert spoiler space for the second TP CD here.

I > have my opinions, but I want to get a general feel from those of you out > there in fandom. If you take old-series canon, TP cannot kill even when under the influence. If you take "The Heart of Sogguth", John actually said he was going to kill the others, and tried to, but he simply couldn't do it. So he had to settle for using his stun gun. Unfortunately, if you take "The New Gods" as canon, then you'll ignore everything from "The Heart of Sogguth" and say that, yes, they can kill when possessed. That's one reason why I'll never take The New Gods as canon! The new series has one case of posession, when Ami is under the influence of Ramases Akhara, and she lures Adam and Megabyte into the tomb with the intention of killing them (am I remembering this right?) but she isn't the one who does the actual attempt -- the death is meant to be death-by-collapsing-tomb. And Ami does appear to throw off the influence once the others help her. So the jury is kinda out on that one. My preferred take is that, when under the influence of some-thing/one a TP may talk, and fully intend, to kill, but the Prime Barrier makes the *act* impossible. We've already seen that TPs can think about killing people (both Megabyte and Kevin in the pilot) but when it actually comes down to the moment of action, a TP can't do it. So the Prime Barrier doesn't kick in at the word, only at the deed. This, of course, won't prevent a TP killing someone by accident! Or being tricked into killing someone (like the robots in one of Asimov's robot book got tricked into being an accessory to murder -- one robot put poison into a jug, being told the jug wouldn't be drunk from, another robot served up the jug of drink, being told the drink was harmless). If a TP did kill someone, the effect, I think, would be profound. They would be deeply disturbed, and they'd probably lose all their powers, even if only temporarily. Just MHO.

My opinion on #2, There's a lot of possession or mental control... I'm just wondering why TP's are more suspectible? And I am not quite familiar with the Prime Barrier, but that's probably cuz I never saw the Old Series... But What does this entail, complete 'push aside' of the TP's personality, or total supression, if so, then maybe it's possible, but the TP would probably suffer a bad consequence, losing powers until they cope with it, or into a coma-like state., after they recover from possession. But if it's the type of possession that the TP is totally aware that they're possessed but cannot do a thing, then probably this no killing thing will come into effect. - My 2 cents.

I always assumed that General Damon resigned from the military because he was (a) disgusted with what their plans for TPs were (I mean, consider the pilot!) and (b) to protect Megabyte. Worldex was a private, independent international security firm, I thought. At least, in The Culex Experiment, they were providing security for this international conference of scientists.

Well, if he's a general, then he can't be Navy (or Coastguard). The equivalent is admiral in those branches. General is reserved for Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps.

(Mike thinks he'll take a quick look back and see if that gives anything away.) 2) TPs - mind control/posession - killing. Again, all the examples from OS and NS have been brought up. Personally, in my fanfic I had a TP character who managed to kill someone while under something else's control, but the resulting trauma put him into a coma. I attributed that reaction to psychic feedback from the action. So basically, I think most people would expect the TP in such a situation to a) breakdown mentally or physically b) lose their powers c) die themselves, or d) some combination of the above.

It almost seems to me that someone doesn't want TP to be shown again (Pearson springing to mind here). Anyway, the good news is that we made it to number 46 in the top 100 which is a very reasonable position. There was a clip of the title sequence with the presenter dubbed over saying things about jaunting in flared trousers and Mike being the drummer in Flintlock. This was followed by 30 secs from 'A rift in time' (the part where they return to find the lab gone) But the person who had most dialogue was Peter (the time guardian). PVC has been on the phone to the TV company and bitterly complained that they misled us into thinking it would be strongly featured (most of my family sat up half the night just to watch for it!) But the bottom line is 'That's showbusiness!! Nothing is ever a certainty. I only hope the release of the new CD can compensate.

They'll be happy to clock up the royalties - indeed they had plenty of other programmes in the show.

With 100 programmes to cover and a 3 hour show minus commercials there would only be about a minute and a bit each on average taking the general linking material into account. I suspect they garnered a lot of material that they in the end chose from depending on how the order of the list worked out. I know that at least one of the 'regular' talking heads also recorded a Tomorrow People part that wasn't used. (His one on Noggin the Nog was though.) I am also aware that one of those advising the programme wanted to be disassociated with the end product and had his name removed from the credits.

I live in the UK (are there many of you = from the=20 UK?) - and although I am not sure of the time differences it is now 2am = here so=20 I'm off to bed.
 
Bye for now.  = jansulli.

That name is a pretty touchy one for some people on-list. I was never involved with said person or involved in said touchy situation. Aside from the psycho-stalker hate emailer from two years ago, the name T.C. Kirkham led to the closest thing this list has ever had to a flame war.

I have managed to track down the books from the old and new series except for this one. My local library has not got this one, so I can't even read it. They also have the policy that you cannot reserve any books to buy - all you can do is check what is for sale when you pop in. So although is does not help you - you are not alone!

If you take old-series canon, TP cannot kill even when under the

was going to kill the others, and tried to, but he simply couldn't do
it.  So he had to settle for using his stun gun.




Mmm, I seem to recall one attempt against Liz by John, possessed by Sogguth,
would have succeeded if Liz did not jaunt away. He actually brought the knife

She managed to hold him off until he was able to break free of Sogguth's influence. He even said "Help me, Elizabeth!" and he was pretty shocked at what he'd almost done.
