Britbox Gerry Anderson Collection Announced

BritBox Gerry Anderson Collection launches 7th May

BritBox today announced a series of telly treats coming to the service next month. In addition to the content already announced, May will also see a season of classic children’s television series from the ITV archives launching on the site.

From 7th May, just in time for the May bank holiday weekend a Bribox Gerry Anderson collection will be launched including ten of the best episodes of Thunderbirds (1965) alongside the documentary All About Thunderbirds (2008). The pilot episodes of  Captain Scarlet (1967), Joe 90 (1968) and Stingray (1964) will also feature.

Subscribers to the service will also be able to indulge their inner child and turn back time to enjoy the first seasons of The Worst Witch (1998), Press Gang (1989), and Children’s Ward (1989). The pilot episodes of Puddle Lane (1985), Murphy’s Mob (1982), Jungle Run (1999), Tots TV (1993), Wizadora (1991), Wolves, Witches and Giants (1995), and Woof! (1989) will also be made available.

Will Harrison, Managing Director of BritBox UK said:

“We have seen a trend in our subscribers favouring ‘comfy content’ and lighter viewing over the last month, so we’ve been raiding the archives to keep everyone suitably entertained. We hope that our viewers enjoy the trip down memory lane as much as we have!”.
