Mirror, Mirror is a 1995 Australian/NZ co-production about two families from 1919 and 1995 respectively after they find out that they can access each other's timelines through an antique mirror.The 1995 side involves Australian Jo Tiegan (Petra Yared note credited as "Petra Jared" ), whose mother has just been appointed principal of a New Zealand school and has dragged the entire family with her. On a trip to the local shop, Jo finds herself inexplicably drawn to an antiques store run by a strange old man who knows her name, and insists that not only does she take an old mirror he owns, but also that he personally places it.Jo soon discovers why this was necessary: the mirror functions as a portal to the year 1919, when the place was owned by the Iredale family, whose neighbour Sir Ivor Creevey-Thorne is housing a young Russian named Nicholas.Meanwhile, in 1995, a dig at the school leads to the discovery of a canister of toxic chemicals in a well, which is then accidentally sprayed on two students. With both students' lives hanging in the balance, Jo and her newfound friend Louisa race against time to prevent this from ever having happened.For the famous Star Trek episode of the same name, go here.Not to be confused with Gregory Maguire's Darker and Edgier literary remake of Snow White of the same title, or with the 2012 film of the same name. | |

Time-Travel Romance | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_10de0193 | comment |
Time-Travel Romance: Jo and Nicholas develop an attraction to each other soon after they meet. Nicholas eventually settles permanently in 1995 and moves in with the Tiegans. Louisa and Tama are attracted to each other from the moment that they meet but they are eventually separated for good as they each remain in their respective eras. In the final episode, it can be seen in Louisa's obituary that she named her son after Tama, indicating that she never forgot him. | |

The Man in the Mirror Talks Back: With the twist that the "reflection" is a completely different person. The Old Man speculates that they might share a soul, but this is never confirmed. | |

Parents as People: Jo's parents are portrayed like three-dimensional characters who have their own problems and are doing their best to deal with a situation they don't quite understand. Lampshaded by Jo's father Andrew, when he says that she "doesn't believe in parental infallibility." | |

Dated History | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_3e8c87a3 | comment |
Dated History: When the show was made, it was considered somewhat plausible - if rather far-fetched - that Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov had escaped his execution, fled the country and lived abroad under an assumed name, because they Never Found the Body. Since then however, his remains have been found, squarely putting the show into Alternate History territory. | |

Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_54d6f53f | comment |
Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory: Time travellers are immune to changes to the timeline when they are outside of their own time: After Jo's first trip back to 1919, the drum of toxic waste appears in the well in 1995. Jo is the only one who remembers it not having been there the previous day. Jo accidentally breaks off a piece of the mirror's frame with Titus' cricket ball in 1919. As far as Tama and Royce are concerned, the frame was always damaged. Jo tells them that they just think it was. In the final episode, Nicholas uses the neutralising agent on the toxic waste in 1919, detoxifying it. This changes the timeline so that Mia and Jesse were never sick. Jo and Tama are the only people from 1995 to remember that they were sick in the first place as they were with Louisa and Nicholas in 1919 when history changed. | |

Phrase Catcher: Many characters in 1919 point out that Jo has "hair like a boy." Justified in that, as Louisa points out, it was pretty much only boys who had haircuts like that at the time. | |

Portal Slam | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_7c904676 | comment |
Portal Slam: The mirror must be placed in exactly the same place at both ends in order to function properly (at one point, it has to be taken on a train). Also: Nicholas can't go through unaided because both he and his ring exist at both ends, and the mirror itself vanishes (along with the store) once history is irrevocably altered. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Several clues are given to Nicholas' true identity before The Reveal. He's quite sickly, as he's suffering from hemophilia. This is why he does everything to not let his anger get the better of him as the Old Man. He also has a photo of a family who historically savvy viewers will recognise as the Romanovs. If the Old Man's theory that Jo is a reincarnation of Louisa is correct, then it's very appropriate that they meet each other through a mirror. | |

Pottery Barn Poor: Sir Ivor refers to the living conditions in New Zealand as uncivilised and savage, even though he and the Iredales are clearly living in comfortable, big, upper-class houses with several servants. This is likely deliberate, to show his arrogance. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: Zig-zagged. The Old Man is the only one who has any clear idea of what the hell is going on and even he makes a critical oversight. Only Louisa, Jo and her brother Royce can actually use the mirror properly, and most of the adults have their own reasons for not helping them. Nicholas' guardian Sir Ivor is the Big Bad, and the Iredale tutor is an Evil Teacher who joins forces with him. Louisa's father tries to be helpful, and manages to find the warehouse where the smugglers are storing their goods. Unfortunately, he is attacked by Sir Ivor's thugs and scared into silence. Jo's father discovers what the mirror can do halfway through the show, but forbids her to use it due to the dangers involved. (Not that she listens.) The girls respective mothers only learn the truth towards the end of the show, by which time they can mostly just stand by and watch, though Louisa's mother does help Jo get back to her own time (along with Jo's father.) | |

Novelization | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_c54d550d | comment |
Novelization: Has one written by Hilary Bell, one of the show's writers. It's mostly faithful to the plot of the series, but has some minor differences (such as the descriptions of the Old Man's hair and the color of the horse Nicholas rides at one point). | |

Shout-Out | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Appropriately enough, Louisa just happens to have the book Through the Looking-Glass in her bedroom. H. G. Wells and Jules Verne - the former of which was still alive and working in 1919 - are both mentioned once or twice In-Universe. Jo quotes two of Maxwell Smart's best known Catchphrases from Get Smart: "Good thinking, 99" and "Sorry about that, Chief." | |

Cassandra Truth: The protagonists have a hard time convincing the adults of anything, whether it be the existence of Time Travel or the villain's Evil Plan. | |

Feuding Families | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_d4d8d831 | comment |
Feuding Families: The Tiegans and the Coigleys, of which every member seems to loath their counterpart in the other family (except for Royce, who doesn't have one). Catherine and Leonie clearly hate each other, with the latter trying to get rid of the former. This rivalry is mirrored by that of their daughters, Jo and Jade. Also, Catherine's husband Andrew has a (possibly one-sided) dislike of Leonie's husband Dennis. | |

Hollywood Costuming | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_e46f71c3 | comment |
Hollywood Costuming: Several viewers have pointed out the the clothes worn in 1919 consistently look far more Victorian than what would be expected for the post-World War I era. Rule Of Costume Porn, perhaps? | |

Broken Masquerade | |
| Mirror, Mirror (1995) / int_f506d08c | comment |
Broken Masquerade: Happens gradually, as more and more people learn about the Mirror. Though in the end, the only people in 1995 who know about it are Jo, Tama and Nicholas. | |
