'The Tomorrow People' became Thames TV's replacement for the 'Ace Of Wands' series, another children's series which also explored the supernatural and fantasy.

"Jaunting", the term used for teleporting in this series, comes from the novel "The Stars My Destination" (British title "Tyger Tyger") by Alfred Bester.

Thames TV received letters from epileptics complaining that the opening sequence of the show was causing them to have seizures.

In the episode "The Vanishing Earth", the Spidron (who is supposed to be a plant creature) is having a conversation with Steen and turns his head, revealing the actor's human head underneath the Spidron's hood.
