Brought hours of fun for me as a child with Captain Scarlett and Thunderbirds and to another generation in the 90’s when the Tracy Island toy was released. F.A.B.

RIP Gerry
I was bought up on Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet et al
The Thunderbirds was by far my favourite - that episode with the Alligators smashing down that house was terrifying! (in my defence, it was first shown 10.3.66 - I wasn't quite 3 y.o. )

Had a nice collection of Dinky models from the various series as well.
memories, memories..
Thank you Gerry, for making my childhood what it was. |

I have a model Fireball XL5, bought off eBay, on my desk. My first crush was on Venus, though I wasn't keen on her pet, Zoonie the Lazoon. My favourite was Robert the Robot, in one episode he went native and tried to kill all humans!
Somewhere in the attic is my licence to drive Supercar, personally signed by Mike Mercury and Dr Beaker. I never did get that test drive, though.
RIP, and thanks for the lasting memories of Supermarionation. |
