Videos like this are awesome... but also make me even sadder that the show never completed.

Actually I was very pleased that they never made a third series. They would have given it a soppy happy ending, and instead of that it has a completely unexpected sad ending where aliens triumph over mankind - the realistic outcome of humanity versus the technologically advanced tripods. The only other series I can think of offhand that have sad endings have them for exactly the same reasons - budget. Alf (captured by the military) and Dungeons and Dragons (stranded in an alternate universe)

Join us in the White Mountains - the resistance if growing strong, and soon we will overthrow the Tripods and Masters!

Thanks a lot!
Do you happen to remember when this was broadcast (approximately)?
What a great find. I would love to get my hands on one of the crystal pyramids but doubt that they still have them now ... mind you I would also not mind having a TRIPOD model in my possession either but chance would be a fine thing.
*Wonders if AA will let me borrow his and ship it to Australia* ;-)

I'm sure with a bit of glue, cardboard and glitter you could knock one up!
