Thunderbirds are 60

[Sharky]

I was a fan or the predecessor, Four Feather Falls and as a teenager, Thunderbirds and all the other puppet shows were often the main topic in the school playground.

The Peter Cook and Dudley Moore copy cat sketch was hilarious.

FAB

The cgi remake was awful. Much preferred the original.

I've wired up my eleftric recliner armchair to play the Thunderbirds theme as I goes up and down.

My mum and dad made me me one of these, the actually island toy was rarer than hens teeth at the time. I remember BBC did VHS copies of it and they had to stop sending them out as they were so oversubscribed.

Fun fact. In the second movie of Thunderbirds they brought in a deHavilland biplane as ‘Thunderbird 6’.

In the live action film Anthony Edwards, of ER game, played Brains. He is one of the only good things about that film.

I saw a vid of the people who did the voices of all of the characters.. None of them looked like their voices!
Shame, I can't find it now 😔
