RIP Gerry Anderson

Post by Nexusdj »

Gerry Anderson creator of Thunderbirds , Joe 90 , Space 1999 and many more TV shows from the 1960s and 70s has passed away today at the age of 83 .

As a fitting tribute perhaps DRS might consider naming one of their newly acquired 57/3's after him considering their Thunderbird connections .

A great loss as i grew up with repeats of the likes of Stingray, Thunderbirds, Joe 90, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons and UFO. Also Space 1999.

Even though the shows are much older than me, I used to love watching Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet. I remember a few years ago BBC used to show an episode of Thunderbirds each day in the summer holidays at around 10am.

Somewhere in the loft I think I have a complete Tracy Island set...
