Thanks for watching, and we can't wait to share more of the Gerry Anderson universe with you! Until next time, F.A.B! 👋🏼
Thanks to this series I decided to leave college and follow my dream of becoming a pilot; I would run home during the lunch break to fix me a fast meal and watch Stingray until one day I decided not to go back to class, enjoyed lunch and next day got a job which would allow me to pay for my flying lessons. The happiest day and my best decision ever. Thank you Gerry Anderson!
LOVED Supercar, Fireball XL5 & Stingray! 👍♥️
My favorite Supermarionation series. I love the design of Stingray, it's one of my 4 favorite sub designs from TV/movies.
Even as a kid, I didn't understand how the thing spinning on the back end propelled it forward, or how the craft could turn. Still bothers me now.😅
I was just a kid when these shows came out. I loved all of them. Yes, we fully understood the characters were marionettes. It didn’t matter, just added to the charm. We were impressed with the creativity, especially when sets were blown up. Great fun. Stand by for action!
I remember watching this in the 60's. I loved it then.
A lot of pleasant memories here for an old man. Thank you for sharing your world with us again. I would love to see some Thunderbirds/Stingray collaborations.
Great teamwork from 63, the very talented Des Saunders (director, writer, post production supervisor) good overview.
i wish we got more than one season of these shows
I grew watching all these shows bring back such nice memories
Stingrays on Talk TV.
I love how bits of each show (sets and puppets) turned up in later shows. Kinda sets them all in the same Anderverse.
The thought of Commander Zero attending a Stigray event just tops off the thought so well 😎
The "Anderverse"...I like it! : )
Stingray and Thunderbird four on a deep sea rescue mission. Now that would be a great episode.
The Hood from THUNDERBIRDS also appeared in the TV21 STINGRAY strip!
0:50 ironically, although stingray was made in colour, it’s original broadcast was in black and white as the UK didn’t have colour transmissions until 1967-69.
5:09 and next to him is venus with a red hat.
I loved this as a kid. I had a stingray model which you could use in the bath. Probably be worth a few pounds now. I'm 64. Loved my childhood. Gerry Anderson was a genius. Ahead of his time.
Did I see the Lady Penelope puppet in Stingray, it sure looked like it.
If ever there was candidate for film version !!
Thank you! Stingray used to and still dose thrill me as do all the GA Shows (:
I can't believe it's 60 years since Stingray was first shown in tv. I had my 12th birthday a few days earlier. I loved that show.
Jamie Anderson, is that true that the concept of launching Fireball XL5 using a rocket sled was inspired by the real project of Philip Bono
Fascinating stuff to know before getting my copy of the 50th anniversary dvd 😅
That explosion in the sea at the begining is still impressive today !
I would love to see a STINGRAY and THUNDERBIRDS episode, or perhaps a well written and produced film.
The wasp ray guns also appeared in Vault of Death. And the Marineville tunnel control panel was also seen in Thunderbirds. And the seats as well.
Loved this series as well as the previous ones mentioned.
Jonny Swoonara!! Lol These shows were a massive part of mine (and many others) 60s childhoods..as was TV21 every Wednesday
Thanks for memory, as growing up in 60s, born in 1958,enjoy gerry Anderson tv series,amazing special effect ,no computers ,blue and green screen, pure magic,now l am 65, ,purchased some series on dvd ,for collection
Also born in 58.Supercar was the first one I remember then the others followed
Fireball XL5 was my favourite.Loved how the episode started every week & the music was so eerie....
There was actually a crossover from stingray to Thunderbirds in the form of Gordon Tracy's back story. Gordon Tracy of Thuderbird 4 was actually trained by W.A.S.P before becoming Thunderbird 4's Helmsman.
Standby for Action … anything could happen in the next half hour. Love that intro drumming
A blast from the past
0:01 Awesome Behind The Scenes Look About Gerry Anderson's Stingray The Original Series. This Is Before Gerry Anderson's Thunderbirds The Original Series. Old School Times Man. Thanks Mate. X
Loved Stingray as a kid.
It's a shame that the Gerry Anderson team never made a CGI reboot Series of Stingray just like they did for New Captain Scarlet 2005 and Thunderbirds Are Go back in 2015 because I always wanted to see what the characters would look like in the CGI version.
There's no comparison between CGI and the absolute artistry of Supermarionation.
I've just watched the new Stingray Blu-ray's and they stand up after over 50 years.
CGI won't.
Well said darth..can't beat originals😊gazzfandersonatic😂
Well TBAG 2015 was nothing to do with Anderson. 2005 CS was to me a big letdown
The whole charm of these programmes is that they are made using marionettes, and they are imperfect, it's a similar thing with the stop frame animation movies, the charm is in the way it was made. In fifty odd years time people will probably look back at today's CGI generated characters with the same nostalgic affection.
Well said, was going to say exactly that, as I see others have done as well. I think there should be more supermarinataion find, series etc, it's such a dying art sadly.
Love it!!!
Great stuff - I had a Supercar driving license when I was a kid. I rememder Stingray very well, thanks for the video.
I was 5 when it first showed. Instant playground hit and the TV21 comic was a must have. I only managed to get from issue 2 onwards thanks to Mum forgetting to get issue 1. Never did manage to get a copy no matter what i offered for swapsies. Bathtime, ofc took on a whole new level of fun with Stingray themed everything. Had to be dragged out the almost cold bathwater several times. Ahhhh it was a good time to be 5.
A story involving T4 rescuing Stingray could have potential.
Frank.
A crossover is always a good thing to see.
When I Retire I'm Gonna Get All the 1960s Series on DVD / Blueray & Be a Kid Again. (smile)
Sounds like a wonderful retirement!
@@GerryAndersonTV Touche' (smile)
There should certainly be a Thunderbirds/Stingray crossover. For example, Stingray's crew being trapped somewhere in the South Pacific Ocean, and Gordon aboard Thunderbird 4 launches from Tracy Island to rescue them.
I grew up in the 60's watching Stingray and Thunderbirds. In fact I remember watching Thunderbirds on the big screen at the cinema on a weekly basis when they used to have the Saturday morning pictures shows put on for the kids of the day. Just recently I have been watching Stingray again on the TV, and it hasn't lost any of it's magic. And yes I always used to hope that they would do a Stingray /Thunderbirds crossover. It would be FAB.
I think a Stingray Thunderbirds crossover would be great 👍
I remember reading somewhere that Gordon Tracy was a member of the World Aquanaut Security Patrol before leaving to take over Thunderbird 4 and that Brains was responsible for the building of Stingray which is why Jeff Tracy poached him away.
Loved all of Jerry and Sylvias productions. Kev who is 63 years young.
Tv21 comic.. I had forgotten about that.. I had it every week when I was a kid
Had the first 3 or 4 but couldn't afford it after that.
I like that the shows cross over in the comics, but in the shows, it makes no sense them all being in the same continuity, like in Thunderbirds our ability to travel in space is nowhere near as advanced as in Fireball XL5, and Thunderbird 4 near encounters the WASPs - though I believe Gordon was a member of the WASPs before joining International Rescue in the comics, so I like that it can be head cannon some of the time.
It was always fun to recognise reused puppets between shows for us while we watched them. I'm sure if these shows were made today there'd be several episodes featuring interconnected stories! 😄
I can just imagine some new and futuristic floating city being unveiled, escorted by the W.A.S.P. with The Mysterons threatening to destroy it. I'm sure Captain Scarlet would be on the verge of drowning under some rubble while trying to stop it from being destroyed. Picturing his reaction to Marina coming to his rescue makes me smile. 😅
Wasn't Gordon Tracy stationed at marineville in his earlier life? As a member of W.A.S.P.
Your mission is to destroy Marineville.
Yes, oh mighty Titan.
I had the plastic model for use in my bath - I was five at the time.
My last job before I retired was in the Royal Navy Headquarters - I desperately wanted to play the opening 30 seconds of the theme tune over the PA to the full 1,000 person capacity.
I knew many would have chuckled, but the then Second Sea Lord may have had a huge sense of humour failure and my 37 pension banished beyond reach…
Halcyon childhood (and adult) days 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@PhilbyFavourites I like to think that in the privacy of his bathroom the Second Sea Lord also had a model of Stingray. Wouldn't do for word to get out to the lower ranks though😂😂
I wish they was a Thunderbirds and Stingray crossover
If Big Finish gets the okay to do it, I'd say have it be a three-way crossover with them and Captain Scarlet given I remember one of the Captains (Grey I think) being a former WASP agent.
As for general crossovers, I'd love to see either Captain Scarlet or UFO with Doctor Who, though preferably with era accurate Doctors to when the respective Anderson shows aired.
So we'd have The Second Doctor working with Captain Scarlet to stop a Mysteron/Dalek alliance, while on the other hand, we have The Third Doctor and UNIT clashing and eventually working with Ed Straker and SHADO.
There sort of was. The Hood appeared in a Stingray comic. Plus the Sidewinder.
At 0:15 is that Masterspy sitting towards the end of the table? I don't remember much about Supercar as I was a toddler, but my mum told me I had sobbed and proclaimed, "I don't like Master pie!"
I watched this in the 60s when I was a kid.. And up to watching this video I never knew Troy Tempest was modelled on James Garner.. but looking at it now that I know.. It seems so obvious lol 😊.. And by the way.. I shouldn't admit this but I fancied Marina when I was a kid.. Everyone else was fancying Lady Penelope in Thunderbirds. For me it was always Marina
She was modelled on Ursula Andress, I believe. Phones (?) was Red Buttons.
This is what the kids need now I am 67 I have dvds of the shows still love them ,kids TV are run by the woke generation, probably say they were too violent for kids now ,just think how many kids have been killed by knife,s my generation never needed to carry knifes
I’d like to see a short 4 film Gerry Anderson universe. With stingray, thunderbirds and captain scarlet getting their own live action film finishing up with a team up in the 4th avengers style. But please make the film for adults so that those of us that watched as kids and are now adults can enjoy it. Let’s not have a repeat of the early 2000s thunderbirds movie please.
TV 21 excellent comic.
I always thought that Titan agent X20 was based on the famous actor Peter Lorre , aswel as looking like him, he sounded exactly like him . Do you know?
He was indeed
Why the music broken
I would love to know in fireball xl 5 there is a concert an d the song is i wish i was a spaceman there ia a quick frame of the crowd , I am wonderering if any characters from other shows were in that audience
Bit late for a collaboration now.
Was it true that:
Brightness Bardot sued Gerry Anderson for unauthorised use of her likeness when creating Marina,
And that she used the money from the out of court settlement to setup her animal charity?
I meant Brigitte Bardot; spellchecker strikes again!
I loved all these shows when I was a kid, but my kids never liked them because you could see the strings. That never seemed to bother me when I was young.
Why wasn't Marineville built closer to the sea?? That's quite a long tunnel.
Great video as always, but where did you get the music from? It’s awful! Especially the main Stingray theme
Think the problem is playing games , sitting in front of the telly playing the games ,kids now have forgotten how to use there mind
Best theme tune ever. Followed by Thunderbirds. And no crossover until this woke shite is done.

Not as much humour in the ep as ur other stuff
