Australian kids comedy-drama Round The Twist will be available to watch for free very soon! The show, which was hugely popular in the 90s, with its very catchy theme tune, will be added to ITVX in September.

The show was adapted from short stories by Paul Jennings, and followed the long-suffering dad Tony Twist and his three children - 14-year-old twins Pete and Linda and eight-year-old Bronson.

The family moved to the fictional coastal town of Port Niranda into an old lighthouse, with an outside 'dunny' (toilet), which of course is haunted, but that's just the start of their adventures.

The show first aired back the early 1990s on the BBC, where shows were introduced from the famous broom cupboard, with presenters such as Greatest Hits Radio presenter Andy Crane and Andi Peters.

Round The Twist theme tune

The memorable theme tune features clips from some very well-known nursery rhymes, including 'There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly', 'Humpty Dumpty' and 'Rain Rain Go Away'. The song was written by Andrew Duffield and sung by Tamsin West - who also played Linda Twist in the show's first series.

When will Round The Twist be available to watch?

It will be added to ITVX on 17th September. It has not yet been confirmed when it will be added to STV Player for viewers in Scotland.

Which series will be available to watch?

All four series of the show dating between 1990 and 2001 will be available to watch.
