Sci Fi Monday

 


Mystery Monday & Sci Fi Monday

This is my grown-up version of the classic, The Third Eye but rather than focus on the supernatural I prefer mysteries and science fiction. In this series I alternate between traditional mysteries and science fiction films mostly from the ‘50’s and ‘60’s.

Happy Birthday Peter & Nick


Happy Birthday to two of our favorite Tomorrow People, Peter Vaughn-Clarke who played “Stephen Jameson” and Nicholas Young who played "John Dixon" in the original 1970’s version of The Tomorrow People.



Character Descriptions:
Stephen Jameson (Peter Vaughan-Clarke)
Aged 15, was the first Tomorrow Person to "break out" on screen. At first, he finds it hard to believe that he is a Tomorrow Person, but soon comes to accept this. Like other Tomorrow People, Stephen possesses various psychic abilities. The primary powers of all telepaths are "jaunting", the ability to instantaneously transport oneself from one place to another, telepathy, the ability to read the minds of other Tomorrow People and telekinesis, the ability to move objects with the power of the mind.


John Dixon (Nicholas Young)
Nick Young (Left) & Peter Vaughan-Clarke (Right)
Aged 17, John is the leader of the Tomorrow People. He is an inventor and scientist. He built The Lab and the biological computer, TIM, with some help from the Galactic Federation. John was, to the best of our knowledge, the first Tomorrow Person to survive the breaking out process for which he had no guidance through the process.

Scoop: Tomorrow People Remake Recruits Original Series Star for Recurring Role

Tomorrow People Remake Recruits Original Series Star for Recurring Role


Article – Scoop: Tomorrow People Remake Recruits Original Series Star for Recurring Role

by Kate Stanhope | Sep 23, 2013 06:00 PM ET


The CW's upcoming remake of The Tomorrow People is getting a serious blast from the past.

Nicholas Young, who starred as John in the original U.K. series, has been cast in a recurring role, TVGuide.com has learned.

The Tomorrow People is the story of several young people from around the world — played by Peyton List, Robbie Amell, Luke Mitchell and Aaron Yoo, among them — who represent the next stage in human evolution, possessing special powers like teleportation and telepathy. They work together to defeat the forces of evil, otherwise known as a group called ULTRA, which hunts down people with these special abilities. In the remake, Mitchell portrays John, Young's character in the original series.

In the remake, Young will play Aldus Crick, the scientist who first discovered and studied the original generation of Tomorrow People. Stephen (Amell) believes that Aldus, a friend of his father's, may have information concerning his dad's disappearance. However, by helping Stephen find his father, Aldus puts himself back on ULTRA's radar and in danger with the very organization that forced him into hiding.  Young will appear in the eighth and ninth episodes.

Chuck's Phil Klemmer executive-produces with The Vampire Diaries' Julie Plec and Arrow's Greg Berlanti.

Young, the only cast member to remain for the original Tomorrow People's entire six-year run, is also known for his work in the 1981 U.K. miniseries Kessler.

The Tomorrow People, one of TVGuide.com's 10 most-anticipated dramas, will premiere Wednesday, Oct. 9 at 9/8c on The CW. Are you excited to see one of the show's original stars on the remake?

Classic Nick Wed. – Details About CW’s Tomorrow People Pilot


Details Emerge About The CW’s Tomorrow People Pilot

Craig Byrne January 31, 2013



The CW is casting their new version of The Tomorrow People, from Executive Producers Julie Plec (Vampire Diaries) and Greg Berlanti (Arrow) with a script from Phil Klemmer (Chuck), and KSiteTV has learned some details about some of the characters and situations we might see if it should go to the series.

The pilot is currently casting several roles, and some of them have names that are familiar to the 1970′s British ITV series. Things could always change, and it’s quite possible some names and situations may change as well, but here are some of the characters we can [possibly] look forward to.

Stephen shares a name and a similar situation to the character Peter Vaughan-Clarke played in the original Tomorrow People. Also like the original show, Stephen first meets the others in the premiere, and at first thinks it was all a dream – until he uses some telekinesis of his own. He is told he inherited his “genetic mutation” from his dad, and he has a friend named Astrid that he goes to high school with. Astrid seems to be his Chloe Sullivan-Joey Potter type “best friend.” He’s actually being given meds for “paranoia” and those meds get him into a troubling situation. Stephen has a brother named Luca.

Nicholas Young played John in the original series, and there’s a John in this one, too. Although each of them possesses the “three T’s” – teleportation, telepathy, and telekinesis – teleportation is John’s specialty. Love triangles seem already set up as John is jealous of Cara’s chemistry with Stephen.

Cara (perhaps named after the original show’s “Carol”) speaks telepathically, particularly to Stephen. Has anyone called Laura Vandervoort for this yet? She’d be perfect, and she’s played a “Kara” before, so the names would be similar.

Russell is another of the Tomorrow People. He’s Cara’s brother and a “handsome bad boy.” It sounds like there are several Tomorrow People beyond those named, as well.

Jedikiah also shares a name with a character from the original series. (The first episode of the old show was actually called “The Slaves of Jedikiah.”) He knows Stephen’s family, and seems to lead a program called ULTRA that deals with folks like the Tomorrow People. He tries to convince Stephen that John and Cara aren’t being honest with them. In other words, he’s bad news.

As with the previous series, Tomorrow People are unable to kill.

The computer TIM still factors in to things, and the base of the “Tomorrow People” seems to be a subway station hundreds of feet below Manhattan. Hope they don’t run into any turtles down there… terms like “saps” (the original series’ name for people without powers) also come into play.

Although things could change, does this sound like something you’d watch? Leave some comments below!
