- A teenage boy, Stephen Jameson, collapses in the street while being observed by three other youngsters-John, Carol and Kenny-who communicate with each other telepathically.Later, Carol contacts Stephen at the hospital and informs him he has broken out as one of the Tomorrow People, the next stage of human evolution.However, he has also come to the attention of others.
As a Steven J. myself, it drew me in.
Thank you for posting this, it seems a lifetime since I saw it.
R.I.P....Peter vaughan clarke,....and Philip Gilbert.😢😢😢😢
thanks a lot this series had such a strong inpact in my childwood!
Props for putting up the entire series.. it's amazing how much of UK culture is being lost on the new generations.. virtually gone from TV or streaming are these lost series... even semi popular Benny Hill....
Thanks for the uploads. Love the old UK series that brings back memories. Such a different time. And no extreme colloquial accents on TV. Everyone sounds clipped and stage schooled. I'll eat a curly wurly looking at this now. 😊
Thank you so much for this.
Thanks so much for posting this. I've had haunting snippets of memory from this show all my life. It was on early in the morning in Australia & I must've been VERY young when I last saw it because all the characters seemed like adults to me. Now of course, from the perspective of a few more decades, it's quite obvious they're just kids. I'd forgotten the music completely, & it really was weird hearing again. It's made me strangely uneasy...
I think I'll go make myself feel better with a dose of Catweazle.
Cricktail Mnxmoosi similar experience
I ❤ Catweazle.
I remember seeing this on first broadcast. It was such an "oh wow" moment when Carol jaunted - the swirl of multicoloured lights and the musical tones were very memorable. And "the Lab" is an absolutely magnificent piece of design, with it's background droning sounds and lava-lamp effects, it is genuinely unearthly. I loved the ide aof TIM being a "biological computer" (quite a concept for the 1970's) and it made sense as he was telepathic. Philip Gilbert (as TIM) is one of the best and most enduring characters in the show.
Thank you for posting this!
I like The Tomorrow People and also like Dr. Who, UFO and Space 1999. Thanks for the upload.

This is from the early 1970's - about 1973. London looked like a quiet suburban town, 98% white and middle class.
No frigging traffic either
No negros
@@Jwdude123 Oh fuck off you predictable prick.
Hi Tracie Hall from Sunbury vic Australia, where are the rest of the episodes? I watched this as a kid. Loved it then and still do.Most of the characters look like my relatives from the 70' s i love the flares man!!! And as a kid i had to ware them, flares are coming back man, aren't they? Oh well, just me then.Love and peace to all.
This brings back memories.......I saw this on NICKELODEON in the late 1970's-early 1980's. It was.....unique. I think it's the best wat to describe it.
"In the hospital? Has he had an accident?" No, of course not, he's sightseeing!
I used watch this after school but the series that freaked me out was Survivors and Children of the Stones
Fish seabass I watched both of those series based on your suggestion.
Seventies childhoods in the UK.. quality TV weirdness
trevor brown check out a 70s kid show called sky..in the USA i think it was called juganet or something...really creepy
Lawrence Davis already watching Sky and it is creepy.
Still to this day when I watch Children of the Stones, I find it very creepy.
1970s television music. Scary as hell when I was a kid. Unsettling still now...
This, I liked when I was a kid. They must have made it on a budget of ~$20.
Things like Sapphire & Steel, however, scared the living crap out of me as a kid.
"Get online with the medical computer"
O.o
This was 25 years before the internet!
Point is valid. This show was far ahead of its time. Watch a few episodes. You’ll see an iPad tablet predecessor. Yes. Really.
1973 is a decade before the Internet, seven years before British Telecom offered Packet Switch Stream and three years before Queen Elizabeth sent the first email in Britain. It was the same year, however, that ARPANet, the precursor to the Internet, first appeared in Britain, something your average 5-8 year old would know little of.
That's the context of this line. Indeed, of all the technology.
Remember, the Apple I wasn't invented until 1976, three years after this was broadcast, and portable videoconferencing of the sort you could put on a motorbike wasn't a reality until about 1995.
We can take all that for granted now, but if you grew up watching as the stuff you'd seen in shows like this went from fiction to fact - more-or-less as presented - you got to experience science fiction as about the future not the present. Too much sci-fi these days is about a dressed up now and not a what-if tomorrow.p
Jonathan Day well said.
@@jonathanday6692 The Queen sent an e-mail in 1976 ! Who to?
I loved this as a kid and many shows made then and earlier, i did not bother with the remake in the 90,s.
Many millions of years , carol
thanks for the memories its good to see the tomorrow people the original and the best ok the fx are not as good but it was the 70s and as a kid i loved it
J A U N T I N G !. IT HAS BEEN YEARS since i heard that word!. My god, talk about jogging the memory. Where have the years gone????.
Tim was great!
Thanks, I have been looking for this for over a year and all I remember was someone jumping out from a bridge and disappears in a oval of light.
Thanks, to "Dr.Who", I was attracted to all these sort of programs. If the premise interested me, I would try it, but, the stories, had to hold my interest. Special effects, did not matter to me in either show, but, obviously, if it was something you had never seen before it impressed you, at the time. :)
If you do not mind, I will "Add To" my page.
Agreed. Basically, almost any production between about 1960 and 1980 was theatre on a screen. If you went to see a play, it wasn't for the effects, it was for the story.
Still the case today for plays. Saw Swallows And Amazons the play a couple of weeks back, why should I care that they used wheelbarrows with decoration for boats? If I went to see Macbeth, does it matter if they don't have a set that resembles an actual period Scottish castle? The stories are still good.
Ok, so The Tomorrow People have a teleport effect that's comparable to Blake's 7, Sapphire & Steel, Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy or 1978 Doctor Who but not as cool as, say, 2017 Doctor Who. Does that affect the story? No.
We're agreed on that, I think most people familiar with the shows I've listed would also agree. That's why all those shows were enormously popular at the time.
Modern audiences don't have that theatrical relationship to television. They're entitled to their own style of watching, they're just not entitled to tell us that we aren't, or that we're doing it wrong.
She says she can cook. And what do you do? I eat.
See, even Susan approves of being different.
i loved this series if I was kept in school I would run home so I never missed it
The 2013 Series mentions Jedekiah. I have known about TP since the 70s. Good material to get a backgound on the new CW Series.
the kids were total pleiadians no doubt.. crazy time i bet to be in that 70s london scene i watched this show religiously in the early through late 1980s everday in rerun on nickelodeon here in the united states. I wonder if roger price knew billie meier same era lol
Brilliant! Haven't seen this in decades, but it's all coming back to me. Britain in the 70s, dear me what a dump. Tower Bridge looks black with grime at the start.
And I was VERY startled to hear the word "online" appear!
NialasDubh there is an iPad predecessor
I'd like to see Luminere admit they got it wrong and offer a fresh contract with Big Finish. They weren't the best stories, but they were decent and original style. Nobody profits from BF being unable to sell what they made.
The remake showed the potential of modern effects, but they screwed up in two important respects. First, the mythos was stuck to only in the first episode, and then only in part. Second, the series sold in both first and second incarnations by being intellectual and philosophical. That was, and still is, rare. Action shows are common. Government conspiracy shows are everywhere. Where's the hook?
The mythos needs very little updating, the science aspects maybe a little more. You then have something relatable whilst still being an attractive vision of a better future. Dystopias sell but to a different market.
Continuity with the original series and optionally the 90s remake would have been difficult but possible. If I were doing it, I'd probably start by writing a novel that linked the first two and a second novel linking that to a pilot script. Use the novels as market research, then base the broadcast continuation on the results.
Don't be so quick to assume. Two people can come up with the same idea independently with no knowledge of each others' work. An example of this was Alan Moore and Jim Baike's "Skizz". Though similar to Spielberg's "E.T.", much of the graphic novel was already drawn before the film even came out. If Tomorrow People were inspired by anything, Wyndham's "The Midwich Cuckoos", or Henderson's "The People: No Different Flesh" are far more likely. Still, the term "Homo Superior" was used in the X-Men.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
At least when the mother was dialling a phone number, she didnt just dial three or four numbers which wouldnt get through to anyone, which often is the case in TV shows. Realism, well done.
Where I lived, there were only 4 numbers.
Before Heroes, there was the Tmorrow People which hd the honour of being the very first tv show where people devloped super powers randomly as a result of human evolution....in short the Tkmorrow People was the first Tv show to rip off the X-Men
I grew up on this here in NZ ... couldnt believe that the title music would STILL be as haunting as it was then ... the NEW one TOTALLY GOES OFF COURSE ... they didnt have guns ahahaaaaaa...... they use only snippets of the original story and the only thing missing from the NEW one is stupid SHINY VAMPIRES N WERWOLF'S so that the latest thing called MEME'S will watch it .. so dumb .. when all they had to do is up date the environment, level out the dated techn with today's stuff and then the producers would have had and INSTANT following ... BUT NO .. .it went... MERI CAN ...(in the can) ... dumb..
gotta love them high neck skivvys!
Would love to be able to jaunt. Love the jaunt by Kenny off the bridge. Yes officer! anything you say officer! No No don't do that! Brilliant. Love to jaunt out of a Job Centre Plus permanently just to dumbfound the dumb staff.
Andrew Parsell time travel isn’t what it’s cracked up to be
The new ones are so much better
LOL WUT? THE NEW ONE IS like 100% better, are you on drugs? :L
***** Ok please do tell me hows its "Crap" compared to this so called "Drama" beacuse this is terrible, it looks fake, acting is terrible, and has such poor edits. So please do tell me how 2013 - 2014 tomorrow people is bad?
***** Thats really not a valid reason, and I think you're watching the wrong program :')
No, they're really not.
Nope. You are confusing technological advance & the use of blandly "attractive" mannequins/actors with quality. The new series is shiny, polished & entirely lacking in any atmosphere whatsoever. It's barely distinguishable from any other contemporary U.S series.
If the above is what appeals to you, you'll never grasp what we're trying to convey to you, but I'll try anyway - what the original lacked in technology & Hollywood hair/makeup/wardrobe, it more than made up for with it's real life street scenes, bleak atmosphere & creepy weirdness. There's just no comparison. The new version is easily mistaken for several similar programs that screen concurrently. The original is like nothing else before or since.
What happened to the rest of the videos there used to be pretty much the whole series on here what happened?
This reminds me of another British TV show from the 1980's.....UFO
+oh no its That guy again
Ufo-1970
The tomorrow people-1973
+Tywin Lannister. And space 1999 should have part of ufos second series shado's new moonbase
Hi Larry, you may be on to something there.
i know i have a connection with the pleiades and i always did with this show as well..Didnt really like the early 90's version and have not checked out the new one because this was the real deal here we also had a show from the uk or new zeland called the third eye series that was from the seventies it had a show called the haunting of cassie palmer and something about stones and another one with a boy and a girl with powers and some old man that was their guide.. good times great shows that then and now still fly under the radar...
It’s like the mrs Jameson Stephen’s mum forgot completely who he was she’s very slow at remembering isn’t she.
i wish they had linked the new series to this, similar to dr who. so there is a 25-30 year gap. in that time the galactic federation has collapsed, leading the tomorrow people to be isolated on earth. also, change in government means that the already fragile truce that the government and miletary dont touch tomorrow people breaks, hence the creation of ultra.enter the new series. all they need to do is come up woth new names and boom, it is a continuation rather than an inacurate remake (more of a rip off ). the 2 are very different but both good and the thing that makes me hate the new one is that it is incorrectly branded (and treat as) a remake so that the many many referances just remind us it is tearing apat it source material
Not cool to freak out a policeperson though.
Yes the acting is pretty shit & stage is very basic. But the stories & plots way ahead of its time. The intro use to scare the crap out of me ( was about 10 at the time) but loved it
I wish the Americans had not ruined it
I think it was actually Canadian
Nigel Sheppard Canada sucks
UK TP 8 Series not bad for a 70s kids program The US Series 1 Just 1 it even had Nicholas Young init American one had money a lot of money and it was ok and the 70s one had no budget and it was just a kids program
hahahahha this scary me
Am I crazy or is Peter Vaughan-Clarke the spitting image of a (non ginger) Nicola Roberts from Girls Aloud. Its not an insult all boys looked effeminate in the 1970s :)
Yes, dear Stephen. In my opinion you're definetely crazy. That chick is way way uglier tan Peter Vaughan-Clarke who I think was a real cutie, I used to have a big crush on him when I was little., seriously I can't see the slightest ressemblance.In general, I've always thought boys in the 70s used to look not effeminate but way better, sexier and cooler than the average millennial celebrity/sex-symbol/whatever . They simply lack the looks and the charm of Peter and others like him.

The acting is terrible, love the American version of The Tomorrow People, pity it wasn't renewed, Stephen is a teenager where English actor is no doubt a teenager
but! Robbie Amell does not look like a teenager.
That's the problem there supposed to be teenagers but in fact they only look like young adults if the new series had more substance and originality to it then it probably would've made it however it had predictable pilots two-dimensional characters and a lot of I candy actors to fill in the blank's I'm sorry but the older series are much better than the newer ones
Kenny didn’t last
He was only in the first series.
For the first 13 episodes.
Don't care about any hate i get for this because i know i'm right.
The new american remake of this series is far better and far more entertaining. First of all the acting is a lot better in the new series, because back in these days they got any old person who was attractive/looked the part and didnt care about their acting what so ever. Granted they still very much cast based on attractiveness, the actors are more trained and generally have far more competition so the quality of acting IS better now. Also, it's a lot more satisfying with today's IMPROVED technology to watch realistic looking teleporting/telekinesis etc. and results in you not just laughing at it every time glittery bubbles appear and the camera cuts to a new place with poorly written script.
Just to be clear... I'm from London and live in London, so I'm not biased towards American shows and generally think most of them are crap. But the new The Tomorrow People is targeted at a more mature audience and is better made. So yeah... it's better.
You wont get hate for this bud, but you do understand that the TV Shows/Movies of this era are 10-20 times better than the ones of that era, technology made it possible. right now we say that we love Marvel Movies now, 30 years from now, we're going to criticize how bad its going to look compared to that current stage of technology. so we must give them the Props for trying, but everything will always look better in the future.
You say that, but the original Superman movies starring christopher reeves are much better than say the Fantastic 4.
I would compare it to Man Of Steel, but it's a completely different case because of Zack Snyder's modernised direction and a darker take on the story :)
I agree and I love it the new one is so so good :)
+Oscar Pullin good enuff to get canceled
David Oliver Simmons You said you're in London but what age bracket are you? That might be a factor in your opinion too as I think nostalgia can play a part in people's preference for this era and production style.
Personally, I enjoy the slower pace and minimalism about this.
gosh the acting was sooo bad! the new one was sooo much better! pity they only had a season
