It is a story about tpdis and the anniversary dinner and has many list members as it's main characters. Does anyone object to being included in this story? I will use your real names but not your real mail addresses... Mail me off list if you don't want to be included. Thanks Jackie P.S. Can anyone beta read this story overnight?

Interesting - I note they have used my New Series font for part of their CD title.

It was so obviously not OS. Yep - an attempt to produce a full font based on the lettering used in the title screen of the new series - that only contained the letters THEOMRW, so I had to extapolate most of the rest - and was in three dimensions to boot, so it's debatable how well it worked out.

As an experienced convention organiser I have, for some years, been considering the possibility of a Tomorrow People Convention.  I know that there are people out there who would like to attend such an event; what I do not know is how many such like-minded people there are. 

 

Please join this forum and contribute, use it to say whether you would attend, what you would like to see at such an event.  If your are not UK based please still contribute - there will be a website associated with this forum which will report on the event during and after so that you can still share in it.  It is worthwhile, therefore, for you to express your views.  Insure that your views are represented.

 

Lets try to find out just how extensive the Tomorrow People fan base is, please do join and contribute.  Please indicate where, roughly, you are in the world – UK, USA, Australia etc.  Help make a TP convention a reality.

Will it be weeks, or months? Perhaps the commentary on "A Man For Emily" will reveal once and for all the mystery of how you can crash a ship by shoving a tray in a waste disposal chute. And though people may malign the episode for its misguided attempts at comedy, it does feature one of the most original concepts in science fiction. Oh yes, Star Trek may have had Obedience Collars in "The Gamesters of Triskelion", which controlled Kirk & co. by subjecting them to painful neural shocks, but AMFE had....... OBEDIENCE PLATFORMS. Yes! Stack-heeled boots that controlled the wearer, transforming them into mere slaves at the mercy of The Mamma, forcing them to walk in great big wobbly strides, a bit like Gary Glitter outside a primary school. For this alone our lives are enriched and happier. johnny ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Subject: Re: TPDIS: Fashion Victims Date: 11 Feb 2003 22:07:11 -0800 (PST) John Dignan said: > Perhaps the commentary on "A Man For Emily" will reveal once and for all > the mystery of how you can crash a ship by shoving a tray in a waste > disposal chute.

As most of the costs involve setting up the screen printing they suggested that I offer people attending the chance to buy a T-shirt for themselves at cost price (£6.50). The larger the order the lower the costs and the more money available to go to charity. The design is for a small breast logo in gold on black which says 'The tomorrow people 30th anniversary' and a large open hand on the back. They are available in small, medium, large and extra-large. To avoid having to charge for postage and packaging I can place the order in advance (provided people guarantee that their order is genuine) and pay for it myself then you can collect your T-shirt on the door when you arrive. I can allow two weeks for people to mail me (off list) to place their order. So is there anyone interested? These shirts are exclusive to the dinner and although I would like to make them available to everyone I don't have time atm to sort out orders, international currency and postage worldwide.

I don't remember offhand any of the OS TP having *precog* dreams, though of course there were dream messages from Peter in "A Rift In Time." > Did the OS expand beyond those powers? or just use the main three in > creative ways? I would say they mostly used those three talents in creative ways, or used different aspects of them. I would say, for instance, that "mind merging" as used in NS is essentially the same as when TP in the old series "Link" to boost telepathic communication. (It's also similar to what Julian May calls a "metaconcert" in her books dealing with metapsychic powers -- several people with such powers working together to achieve a greater effect.) What TIM gave the rather grandiose name of "sub-molecular re-manipulation" seems to me to just be telekinesis exerted at the molecular or atomic level, for instance. > Was there a definite difference in talents...? Or could all of them > duplicate the same talent at will? Definite differences, I'd say, though most of the TP post-breakout seemed to be roughly equivalent in terms of telepathy and teleportation. Telekinesis seemed the most variable, and what talents a person showed BEFORE breaking out was quite variable. Before breaking out, Elizabeth could "overhear" telepathic conversations between Stephen and others, while Mike could open locks telekinetically. > As I type this, I remember people mentioning something about illusions, > and stuff. But I'd like a concrete list. :) That was, I think, an example of a new application or "twist" being found for an existing talent. Until Andrew Forbes started telepathically transmitting *visual* communications, the idea doesn't seem to have occurred to the other TP that one could use telepathy that way. Another side use of telepathy is the ability to translate languages, as used most explicitly in "A Rift In Time". I don't know that this is an exhaustive list, but hopefully it will help.

I found the language translation ability quite intriguing because it implied the ability to read saps' minds. John explained it as "interpreting brain patterns". Perhaps it is not as sophisticated as telepathy between TPs, but it does seem similar to it. There was also the healing ability, evidenced by Kenny (reviving John and Stephen from the dead in "The Medusa Strain") and Stephen (reviving the shopkeeper shot by Elmer in "A Man for Emily"). In both cases, the healer expended some of his energies into the wounded (and in the case of Stephen and the shopkeeper, healing an actual gunshot). Kenny was quite drained by the experience, while Stephen merely jaunted away, perhaps because the shopkeeper, while wounded was not actually dead (?). In "Worlds Away", Tyso was shown as capable of astral projection. It was stated that not everyone could do this. That's all I can think of for the moment.

I think it's more likely either telekinesis or a variant on jaunting, just because I don't see it necessary to postulate an entirely new power when it could be one of those. > In series one, they seemed to imply that different characters were more > gifted in some areas than others.

I think it would have wound up getting in the way of the stories too much to have significant differences in their most-often-used powers like telepathy and teleportation. >>That was, I think, an example of a new application or "twist" being >> found for an existing talent.

Perhaps it is not as sophisticated as > telepathy between TPs, but it does seem similar to it. Keep in mind that *Tricia* could also read the minds of saps, though not perfectly and it did seem to be rather a strain for her. Perhaps full TP generally consider it ... rude? ... to intrude on the privacy of a sap, unless they *have* to for communication. A while back I posted an article that went into this but didn't seem to catch the interest of the list. To summarize my idea, perhaps saps and TP have the same basic "equipment" in the brain -- but TP have a better "antenna" and much more power to work with. This would help explain why Tricia could read saps -- but it had to be at close range and was difficult. (And also why it was painful for her when Elizabeth opened her mind to Tricia.) It would explain why TP could do the language trick with saps, again at short range. It also explains why Andrew's "hallucinations" could be seen by saps nearby, but were picked up by TP hundreds of miles away. > There was also the healing ability, evidenced by Kenny (reviving John > and Stephen from the dead in "The Medusa Strain") and Stephen (reviving > the shopkeeper shot by Elmer in "A Man for Emily").

Well, this makes sense -- Kenny was young, and there were *two* people to revive; assuming the bullet didn't go through the shopkeeper's heart or the like, it seems it would be less draining to heal him. Let's also not forget that by the second example, the TP had gotten a lot more time to practice their powers; one assumes like any skill, over time they could do more with less strain due to greater experience and more practice. Another example of this would be in _Slaves of Jedikiah_ where John and Carol have to jaunt across London in small hops without TIM, but later in _The Doomsday Men_ Stephen can apparently jaunt all the way to *Scotland* without his belt, though it's presented as difficult or a strain. (They never mention doing the trip in shorter jumps....) > In "Worlds Away", Tyso was shown as capable of astral projection. It was > stated that not everyone could do this. It was also the only time they ever mentioned that particular ability. Kind of hard to generalize from one instance. ;) George ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Kristin L.

And there was an attempt by both Adam and Megabyte to heal Kevin in Culex. At least that was the impression I got. It seemed like they were trying to heal him first, then tried to provoke a telepathic response from him. > > Did the OS expand beyond those powers? or just use > the main three in > creative ways? One could argue that Adam's healing was some form of TK. Ditto for Megabyte opening the electronic lock in Monsoon Man. > > Was there a definite difference in talents...? Or > could all of them > duplicate the same talent at will? The NS didn't really last long enough for us to see this, but Adam was often shown to teleport in more advanced ways than the others - i.e. teleporting while somersaulting, from a moving vehicle, etc. Ami was the only one to show any type of TK (again, unless Adam and Megabyte's examples are TK related). Ami also showed some evidence of pre-cog. An argument could be made for Jade having a bit of pre-cog pre-breakout, but it could also easily be aruged that Jade just had a very questioning, suspicious personality fueled by an open mind and imagination. They all seemed equally adept at telepathy, although Kevin was the only one to state having the ability to read minds pre-breakout. Jade was the only TP to broadcast telepathically pre-breakout. > > As I type this, I remember people mentioning > something about illusions, and > stuff. But I'd like a concrete list. :) OS Stuff Carol and Lis were said to have strong 'intuition'. Kenny was stated in SOJ to have the strongest talent for TK among the then current TP. After that, Stephen and Mike did TK more often than any of the others. (Other than the 'clean phone' trick of Liz's I'm hard pressed to think of other TPs that used TK on-screen.) Mike managed both TK and telepathy before he got a hang on teleportation. The way it was done in One Law always made me wonder if Mike hadn't already broken out while the TP were off-planet and simply never discovered that he had the ability to jaunt - making it harder for him to learn. Tyso managed astral projection in Worlds Away, but since there was an inhibitor field present it makes me wonder if that talent wasn't really a TP talent. There are other psychic abilities than those that the TP posessed. It might be possible for a TP to have a psychic talent that is not related to their being a TP. Or, it may very well be possible that being a TP makes it more likely that the person in question will have additional psychic abilities above the common traits. Why the inhibitor field would dampen some abilities and not others is fruit for fan-fic. :-) Andrew's ability to generate illusions doesn't seem to be an instance of a special talent or strength. Once the others caught on that they were illusions and that they were caused by a TP they were able to replicate the ability just as well as Andrew did. mike __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Toward the end of the last episode, the picture 'freezes' and I have to fast-forward slightly to get past that point. Then the picture starts pixel-ating madly before going completely weird & trippy. It only occurs in a few places but its very annoying. The disc was part of last year's box set purchased from MVC. I had it replaced with another copy from a different branch of MVC but the same problem occurs on the replacement disc (although in a different part of the last episode). Since that individual story (and a re-issue of the box set) have been released this week I wondered if the new editions have the same technical anomaly. If its been corrected then I suppose I could get another replacement, but I wondered if the new edition has had the commentary 'censored' in any way (for instance, has PVC's mumbled F-word been bleeped?).

Do you mean the little fuzzy box that sometimes appears in the top right-hand corner of the screen? In the 70s that marker would appear just before the commercial break as a reminder to the VT controller (or whoever) that the ads were about to roll and for him to get off his ass.

Correct, it's called a cue-dot. I don't know > why they made it so > that it was transmitted to the public though. Old > technology? Well it's 'old' for 2003 due to digital systems etc. But it's still used occasionally. Let me explain. TP would be played out by Thames Television who provided commercial TV for the London area (at least on week-days). However, other parts of the UK had other commercial ITV companies: ATV for the midlands, Granada for the north-west, Yorkshire etc. There's over a dozen different ITV regions. They would all (or mostly) show TP live from Thames and they would all insert their own advertising. That's the need for the cue-dot. It's for other ITV companies to get ready to insert ads. When, for example, a Granada controller saw the cue-dot, he'd get ready to press the 'play' button on the telecine machine. As soon as the cue-dot disappears, it means that it's 6 seconds until the 'switch'. The controller would then play the advert-film (which should have 6 seconds of blank before the ads). Then he'd count: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Then he'd switch the feed from Thames to the telecine machine, and the ads would be shown to Granada viewers. At the end of the ads, the controller simply hands back to Thames again, probably this time with a VT clock viewable on the Thames feed. This is the reason why the last frame of the last advert is shown for about ten seconds (just in case an ITV company's controller was half-asleep and played the adverts slightly late!) This may not be the exact technical truth; I've made it as simple as possible for people on this mailing list to understand (especially those outside the UK) Cue-dots are dear to my heart.

It also varied in position somewhat, as can be shown by carefully watching the end titles of different episodes on the DVD - sometimes most of the square is visible, others only a little bit. (It was transmitted without any centre breaks, so there are no cue dots elsewhere.) Some of the worst pixellation in the DVDs occur on large blue fields of the inserted early 1990s Thames endcap - fortunately in the two latest stories the orginal 1974 endcaps have been left in which give it a more authentic feel anyway! Oh - nearly forgot. I had no problems with my copy of the Doomsday Men so maybe it was just a bad batch that some have had a misfortune with.

Dave Prowse was the man inside the costume of Darth Vader in all three of the original Star Wars movies. Even though Prowse learned all vader's lines and spoke them during filming, during editing his voice was cut out and James Earl Jones' looped over it. Several times a weightlifting champion, he helped train Christopher Reeve to bulk up for the first Superman movie. Aside from the Star Wars movies, he appeared in Jabberwocky, The People That Time Forgot, Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell, Vampire Circus, Carry On Henry, Up Pompeii, A Clockwork Orange, The Horror of Frankenstein, and many others. Relevant to us here, he played the Android in "The Medusa Strain", but also played the Minotaur in the Doctor Who story, "The Time Monster". Many TP fans who saw the original series in the UK will better remember him as "the Green Cross Man", a TV "superhero" who promoted road safety.
