This week in Gerry Anderson News

What’s happening? Okay, right, well, what’s happening is…, well, it’s like, time for the Gerry Anderson news roundup man, y’know ya?

This week’s edition of the Gerry Anderson Podcast launched on Sunday evening, and featured the first part of a behind-the-scenes look at the recent Stand by for Action 2 concert! If you prefer to stick with traditional audio-only rather than our new and improved video format you can still catch it (and all other previous episodes) every week either through our website or via your podcast platform of choice.

Also new this week over on the Gerry Anderson Randomiser Podcast (also available on all podcast platforms) the Day of Immolation is fast approaching for the Space Precinct team in the second part of The Fire Within!

This week we once again pitted two similar Anderson pilots against each other to determine which one stands as the best viewing experience; it’s Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons and Terrahawks, but who will emerge triumphant? Read the article here!

On the week that Thunderbird 6 was first released in cinemas 56 years ago, we’ve been speculating over what direction a third Supermarionation-based Thunderbirds movie may have taken, in the latest Thunderbirds Thursday article!

Now open at The Hub in Lichfield is a new exhibition of original puppets, models and artwork from the worlds of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson! The Art of Supermarionation runs until November 2nd, and entry is free!

Celebrating a birthday today (August 3rd) is UFO semi-regular and Space Precinct guest actor Steven Berkoff, while July 29th saw the 56th anniversary of the 1968 release of the feature film Thunderbird 6.

Okay, right, ya, well that was just amazing y’know? And, like, we’ll totally be back next weekend to do it all again, okay? Okay great, ya, fantastic…
