Round the Twist (1990)

On the precipice of the rugged Australian coastline, nestled within the embrace of an ancient lighthouse, is the new home of the Twist family in the award-winning children's series, Round The Twist. The story unfolds as Tony Twist, a city-weary father, and his trio of children - the dynamic thirteen-year-old twins, Pete and Linda, and the sprightly seven-year-old Bronson - trade the urban jungle for a life brimming with coastal charm and uncanny surprises. Beneath the lighthouse's towering facade, the Twists stumble upon a world trapped between the ordinary and the extraordinary. It's a realm where the everyday meets the fantastic, the mundane dances with the bizarre, and the predictable bends at the whims of the unpredictable. The family's quest for a peaceful retreat is thwarted as they unearth the lighthouse's spectral inhabitants and the haunted outhouse that holds its own eerie secrets. Round The Twist is a vibrant tapestry woven with threads of humour, fantasy, and adventure. From stumbling upon mischievous ghosts to tussling with curious monsters, the Twist kids are swept into a whirlwind of weird yet wonderful escapades. Each challenge they encounter adds to their extraordinary coastal chronicles, making their lives anything but ordinary. Watch as the Twist family navigates the dizzying heights of their new life, where the only thing certain is the uncertain, and every day is a thrilling plunge into the fantastic unknown.
