Talkdown: Behind the Scenes of the Joe 90 Technical Operations Manual with Chris Thompson and Jack Knoll

Today’s Security Hazard offering is a most special video discussion between myself and renowned Anderson writer, director, and artist, Chris Thompson. Chris and I have recently collaborating on all things Joe 90 to bring you the latest book in the successful range of in-universe Technical Operations Manuals from the Gerry Anderson store. If you’ve missed previous news of this release, want to learn even more about the contents of the upcoming manual, or just want to hear two old friends casually chat about their favourite TV shows, this video is for you. The video is embedded below and available to watch on YouTube.

End of Eternity: A Look Back on 2020

2020 has proven to be about as much fun as one of Doctor Fawn’s lectures on the physiology of the lower primates. This year has been a bumpy one for us at Security Hazard HQ, with the full spectrum of life’s problems filing along one after another, like an endless conveyor belt of Thunderbird 2’s pods… except each pod contained disappointment and a lingering sense of dread, rather than something fun like the Mole or the D.O.M.O.

Every Explosion In Thunderbirds (Video)

Watch your eardrums everybody. The follow-up to my Every F.A.B. In Thunderbirds video is finally here, but this time it was impossible to keep count because of the explosive circumstances. The world of Thunderbirds is full of things that go whizz, bang, pop and everything in between. I thought it would be awfully fun to compile all of those terrific explosions into one handy video. I didn’t realise it would be quite this long – but I should have known better.

Security Hazard Live! Tune in on Monday, March 23rd

For Gerry Anderson fans who are stuck indoors and looking for a little bit of extra entertainment and chat about their favourite TV shows, I’m trying something new. With no plan or agenda, Jack Knoll (one half of the Operation Anderthon podcast, and some Thunderbirds reviews that go on a bit) will be streaming live on the Security Hazard Facebook page on Monday, March 23rd at 5:00 pm GMT for the first time.

The Most Special Office

Today’s post has to do with my recent house move and my opportunity to realise a dream I have had for a long time. Say hello to my new office.

Investigating The Investigator

One of the key purposes of a pilot episode is to answer questions that viewers (and financiers) may have about the format of the series. It can set up a few mysteries to engage the viewers for the rest of the series, but for the most part, a pilot  should intelligently impart exposition through an exciting and intriguing plot. The Investigator, Gerry Anderson’s 1973 return to mixing Supermarionation with live action, has baffled fans for years. It’s a bizarre concept filmed in an equally bizarre way. We previously reviewed the film in full and essentially concluded that it raises more questions than it answers.

A Terrahawks Christmas Carol

The Security Hazard team have been hard at work to bring you something special this Christmas. Have you ever thought that there might be a likeness between the classic literary figure of Ebenezer Scrooge, and evil alien android Zelda from Terrahawks? Well wonder no more as we bring you a specially written and performed Terrahawks Christmas special which puts a Terrahawks spin on the famous Dickens tale of A Christmas Carol.
