4.0 out of 5 stars A Well Directed Piece of 70s Children's Telefantasy, 1 Jul 2002
By A Customer
After having squirmed through the disappointing "The Medusa Strain" story I was pleasantly surprised when this slice of The Tomorrow People turned out to be a well directed (by former "Who" director Paul Bernard) and largely well acted piece of 70s telefantasy. The sequences in the Fairground Fun House were well achieved and unnerving, and the regulars' performances were becoming more assured by this time (with the exception of the atrocious Stephen Salmon). I especially liked the casting of Doctor Who stalwarts Kevin Stoney and John Woodnutt both of whom lent much needed substance to the cast. I must reserve a special mention for the lovely Nova Llewellyn, or rather her costumes, which were certainly the highlight of the show! No wonder Ginge did a double take when he saw her at first!

Great stuff! More please!

4.0 out of 5 stars You will approach the Spidron..., 22 Jun 2002
By K. Riley "Mr R" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the last story from the first season of The Tomorrow Pwoplw and is easily the best. The characters are well established by this point and the humour in the story is understated rather than overplayed as it is in later series. The concept of the story is very good although coincidence is overused in the story (Is it really likely that Ginge and Lefty stumble upon the alien base just as the Tomorrow People become aware of the danger the earth is in?).
The acting is better than in many TP stories and the villain of the piece, Spidron, is excellent - sarcastic and witty but still chilling. As a piece of 70s kitsch, it works very well and the fairground setting is well used.

My only criticism of the story is the rather rushed ending. It really doesn't quite make sense and is very unsatisfying. Overall though, there is so much to enjoy in this story - the setting, the story and the bizarre trippy visuals - that it's probably the best one-off purchase for those people who don't intend to buy the whole series. Having said that, "The Blue and The Green" is the next release and that's even better!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of My Favorite Tomorrow People Episodes!, 5 Aug 2003
By Ms. Judith A. Furnari (Oswego, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is my one of my favorite episodes ever! The characters are wonderful and I love the amusement park footage. It is very enjoyable to watch. This is the last time we get to see Carol and Kenny in any Tomorrow People episodes. Really this is the last time that the original Tomorrow People are together.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgia isn't what it used to be
This was my favourite Tomorrow People story, but at the age of nine I must have been less discriminating, as it seems pretty dreadful thirty years on. Read more
