ive allways thought that if they make a live action version of this, then tom cruise would make a great captain scarlett as i think he is a dead ringer for him
@el6caballo6oscuro6 I always thought he had to have the world's worst case of PTSD - and that was just thinking about the time when he had a million tons of rock fall on him !
You wouldn't believe how happy this makes me! Hahahahahaha! Brilliant! Not heard this for about 25 years and it is just as good as I remembered. Thanks mate! x
@SENBIE It was also on in the late 60's, about a year after first air in the UK. They hadn't lined up a distributor for North America before production, and had to shop a finished product. It was a Kiddie show, on at about 5 PM or so in those markets where it aired.
Lots of artwork of him dying in unpleasant ways with lyrics like "They crash him and his body may burn, they smash him but they know he'll return" which didn't appear at the end of most episodes, is this really meant for kids?
Possibly because of those things, this is my favourite of Gerry Anderson's work!
Truly bizarre! I was all of 4 years old but I remember watching this show. The images came back to me from some deep memory. As I grew up and became an illustrator, I would draw images very much like these. In fact the font used was and is one of my favorites. Bravo!
@thatguywiththeegg Plus a touch of Cary Grant, according to Francis Matthews, who has openly admitted to a mild impersonation of him in his vocal interpretation.
Ahh! To co back to those blissful days...before the phoney war on terror!!! Never mind,eh.

Let's not forget the Mysterons were pissed off because of a totally unprovoked attack by trigger happy humans. We had it coming and no mistake.
Watch out for those falling boxes Scarlett, you may be seriously bruised!

He would regenerate as long as they had at least a finger nail.

I believe part of the lyrics is "wing to wing, into the scene". I used to think it was "waiting to wee, into the sea". I was that kind of kid.
