Identify these two 1990s programs

[Scotty123]

I've been trying to think of these two programs I used to watch when young..I think somewhere between 1990-1995.

Both are set in Australia.

The first one had this girl who had a time machine..maybe in the shape of a hexagon . I think she had come to the present day as in her time the world was too polluted.

The second program, a family were living on Earth from I think one of Saturn's moons. Aliens obviously. They were hiding (in exile?) from people on their moon. These people came to Earth looking for them.

Probably not much to go on, but it may sound familiar to some of you if you watched the programs on after school had finished in the 90s . I don't remember that much about them, other then I used to really like them!

I have nothing to offer but 'Round the Twist' was also great.

it sound familiar so leave this space open incase I remember what it was called.

wasn't there a tv show from the late 80's early 90's called the dog star which contained an alien ship? a little off topic i know but not many people seem to remember it....

I vaguely remember that one. There were these weird alien 'camera' or spy type things watching people or something.
Was a bit creepy.

i remember one scene (i must've been about 8 or 9) when they had frozen time and there were cows stood still in a field

found an episode

 

[Scotty123]

It's The Girl From Tomorrow .

I found out the other one, "Halfway across the Galaxy and turn left".

 

[Uncle Petey]

found an episode

Yeah, that's the one. @3:00 there's that weird alien camera thing I was on about.
I do remember this show creeping me out a fair bit...

 

[cm1179]

Have you ever felt like this?

One episode of that I remember distinctly is when they kept getting swarmed and pooped on by seagulls .

I found it on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC07xY7Tmys

At first I don't know why.... but I was thinking of the tv series Lexx.

I've been trying to work out the name of this show for a while now so thanks for that, I had the vague recollection of the strange contraption on the top of a barn and originally thought it was in something like Chocky or Benji, Zax & the Alien Prince.

I used to watch a girl from tomorrow, that stuff was really odd back in the day, i was also looking for it a year or so back as I was only little when it was on telly, trippy stuff, might find an episode now lol

 

[KautoStar]

Round the twist was amazing. Best show ever.

 

[Mr Gimp]

Halfway across the galaxy and turn left must have been good as it sticks out in my mind for some reason!

I used to watch a bit of Lexx in my early teenage years. It was a bit rubbish, but strangely addictive.
