Default Argh... name that program

Right, I'm thinking of a program I used to watch as a young boy, so we're talking about early 90's. It was like a futuristic program which I thought was called The Tomorrow People, but it isn't. Could be words similar to that effect but not the 70's original or 90's Amercian remake. I'm sure it was really futuristic (maybe set in the future) and sure it had an Australian theme/was filmed in Australia. Had some really vivid characters, and a youngish lass in it who maybe had powers of some sort. I remember her being very pretty and a mean looking guy having something to do with her.

Theme choon was very futuristic too, very catchy. I can't for the life of me think what it was called after searching for The Tomorrow People thinking it was that. Unless there's a different version out there?

Also, used to be on either BBC1 or ITV as a kids program around 4.30-5.00pm once, maybe twice a week.


ARGHHHH

Round the Twist was great - saw it being shown on a south Indian tv channel a few years ago when I was in Kerala - completely random or what?!

The best bit was the opening song ... "have you heard the word about the bird and the spider....." lol

Round the twist was class. Can anyone remember another Aussie one shown in the 90's called Pugwall. It was on Channel 4 and used to be in the six weeks holidays.
