In series 1 of the Round the Twist television series, Tony Twist and his three children – thirteen-year-old twins Pete and Linda and nine-year-old Bronson – move to an old lighthouse on the rugged Australian coast.  They soon discover that the lighthouse, and the outhouse, are haunted. 

The other residents of Port Niranda contribute to the chaos.  Dad has an ‘on again, off again’ relationship with Bronson’s teacher, Miss James. 

The Gribble gang of school bullies try to outwit the Twist kids, and Gribble Snr. is constantly scheming to turn the coastline – including the lighthouse – into a great big theme park. 

All these things are enough to deal with, without all the ghosts, gadgets, and everything else that fills their lives with adventure. 

Each episode is a self-contained story with an amazing twist in the tail.    

Four series of Round the Twist were produced over eleven years.
