Thunderbirds Reviews

In August 2016 we set out on a not-so top secret mission to review every episode of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson’s classic Supermarionation television series, Thunderbirds. Each week we sat down and analysed every single frame in detail to look for reused puppets, props, models, and sets as well as spotting goofs, continuity errors and other fascinating indicators about how this phenomenal series was produced. We even busted a few myths along the way!

  2. My son has recently started watching Thunderbirds on Britbox and I’m loving rewatching it too having not seen it since the 90s. Amazing what I notice as an adult that I didn’t notice as a child. I found these reviews to read alongside watching them and it’s made them even better! So thanks 🙂 he’s already started Stingray now so I’m looking forward to when you review those.

  3. I love your work. Your reviews of Thunderbirds and Stingray are great. However, I have to speak up in defence of this episode. Sure, there are gaping holes in the plot that cannot easily be explained. They cannot be defended (even if the plot does create some very atmospheric scenes that I have always loved). But the title makes perfect sense! Sure, there are no scenes deep in the ocean but the actual danger (or at least half of it) is deep in the ocean. The OD-60 is on the ocean floor and represents the danger to the ship and cargo – the danger is at ocean deep. I don’t think this is enough to change your mind on the episode though…

    Thanks again for amazing reviews and I hope you take this ‘criticism’ in the humour that it is intended!
