Thunderbirds are go

[triton1]

Flicking through the channels and ending up watching the feature film,showing my age I know but brought back childhood memories.Tin Tin is still looking pretty good but I don't remember the film being such a load of old tosh.The film and Mr Moore however did get me into this hobby.F.A.B. Everyone?

Does Alan realise how lucky he is ? and what a dark spot, Tracy Island  don't get much better than that !

Nice one

F.A.B

Nige.

I think Alan fell out of bed having a wet dream about Tin Tin they must of smoked some serious stuff.The people that made the film I mean I woz too young back then.ish?F.A.B.

Should this be in Astronomy Lounge???

[Alien 13]

They did land on Mars... I did think a few of the ideas in this realy need to be taken up in housing/aircraft and ships, modular systems that could fit anywhere is the way forward.

Which channel was this?  Thunderbirds Are Go was the second feature film I ever saw at the cinema (first was The Dambusters re-release)

If you're at the cinema, keep an eye out for the full TB Halifax advert, complete with outtakes at the end - though not sure Lady P would ever use expletives...

Ah!  I was at the cinema watching Valerian at that time..

I watched the film too - absolutely fabulous - much better than the animated series which just doesn't do it for me. You really can't beat the charm of the original puppets.

Why did none of the Tracey boys have any romantic liaisons with Lady Penelope?

 

Too many strings!

The Tracey boys are far to common for Lady P

And too many strings attatched

Unfortunately that one is missing the Lady P outtakes that are at the end of the cinema 'version'..

Also worth remembering the Gerry Anderson homage/parody in Stargate SG1

Not a verbatim quote, but Gerry Anderson was at first worried by Lew Grade's reaction to the first TB episode "That's not a TV series..."  "... its a motion picture!"
