New Tomorrow Articles Now Up!

That article which featured character names and Ray Thompson speaking about a Tribe film is now up. Click here to read it. It’s a good read, quiet alot in there.

Also, on Saturday 28th May, The Sun’s TV Guide briefly mentioned The Tribe – The New Tomorrow, article is here. Thanks to Adam (Scream0) for the scan, cheers mate :D

Hopefully more Tribe articles will appear in the UK press as series 5 will be repeated soon and eventually New Tomorrow will start. (Let me know if you spot any!) ;)

Phwoar! Character Names For The Tribe A New Tomorrow…

In the new series, action centres around three tribes of children, all dressed in funky clothes and daubed with wild make-up: The Barbs, a primitive bunch of kids, who are at one with nature, and led by warrior girl Zora; The Ants, a disparate bunch of children hankering to the past, led by the flamboyant high priestess Faygar; and The Privileged, a hedonistic gang led by megalomaniac dictator Flame.

Interesting names I must say… Sorry but no mention of Bray and Brady! The article features interview snips from Nick Wilson and Raymond Thompson.

Quote from Raymond Thompson…

It has the same basic premise of kids fending for themselves without adults, but it tells the story of descendants from the original series.

RT speaking about the new setting for the series:

We wanted to create that sense of not knowing whether this was a prequel or a sequel, In places it looks like a nuclear war zone, set a thousand years in the future, and at other times, vestiges of tribal art and spiritual monuments make it seem like one thousand years in the past.

Nice! I hope there’s stuff in there for older fans…

A New Tomorrow – Tribeworld FAQ

Was browsing around TWorld yesterday… For some reason the link to The New Tomorrow question did not work in the FAQ section! Lol, but I’ve searched and found the link for the question: What is “The New Tomorrow” all about?… The FAQ page on Tribeworld is here (it’s a good read if you’re bored! Though some stuff needs updating).

There’s nothing new in the response to the question except at the bottom it says:

At this stage there are no plans for any of the cast of the original series to appear in the show.

But I have no idea when the question was put up, so who really knows…

The Tribes Of A New Tomorrow…

From Tribemaster:

The Priviledged are a superficial Tribe. They are slightly decadent and everything is about their look and attitude…

The Barbs are a feral, untamed tribe… They worship their gods of the sun, moon and of course rain which makes their crops grow.

The Discarded are not really a tribe but a discarded band of children banished from their tribes to live like peasants. Some use to serve the Priviledged…

The Ants are lead by a high priestess… They desperately believe that one day their ancestors will come to save them.

Finally there are The Warps. They are savage, brutal and always ready for war…

Full text is here.

Cheers again to Lancie for pointing this out :D ( I’ve not been reading tribemaster for a while as it was stuck on the same thing for a whole month!) I have to say, the tribes all sound interesting, I’m looking forward to this series now *lol* I guess a fresh start is good… Who were the Mall Rats again?

Vanessa Stacey’s (The Tribe’s Alice) Has A New Job!

I’m sure you’ve read it on Tribeworld:

Guess which ex Tribe member is joining the New Tomorrow team? Vanessa Stacey is joining the crew and becoming the Dialogue Coach for the new kids! Vanessa will work closely with the new cast members, helping them to learn their lines and to get the inflections right – like whether a line should be shouted or whether it is a question and how it should be said.

I think it’s cool! We should see some familiar names in the credits, if not the show itself. Vanessa Stacey played the awesome Alice in series 2, 3 & 5 after a brief guest appearance in the first season.

Production Set to Begin on New Cloud 9 Series

Article from May 10th : WorldScreenNews.com

SYDNEY, May 10: Production on Cloud 9’s new kids’ sci-fi series The New Tomorrow, a sequel to The Tribe, is set to begin on May 30.

The 26×30-minute series will be filmed across Australasia and is due for delivery in September. It has been commissioned by Seven Network Australia and Five, and will be distributed internationally by Southern Star International.

The new series is aimed at a slightly younger audience than The Tribe, gearing to 8- to 12-year-olds. It is based in a world with no adults, where kids have to create their own society.

“The New Tomorrow is a very exciting and innovative children’s series,” said Raymond Thompson, Cloud 9’s founder and chairman and creator/writer on The New Tomorrow. “[It] interweaves a range of provocative social and environmental issues, and a range of elements which children can relate to—reflecting their young lives—in a very entertaining way.”

I think I may be tooo old for this series. Yeah sure, I watched Jay Jay The Jet Plane, but that’s because Vanessa Stacey (Alice) was in it, I do enjoy watching the Cramp Twins, but that’s a cartoon, but I just dunno about this! Help! I’m dissillusioned (sp?)…

Oh on a lighter note, here’s a rather nice pic of a slutty Amber, after a night out with the girls, courtesy of Tribeworld. Now don’t expect pics like that when ANT/TNT comes out kiddies! – Oh I’m so bad…
