Gerry Anderson Primers

Hi all,

                I just found this programme on You Tube, a 3 hour and 40 minute look at the works of Gerry Anderson, called the Gerry Anderson Primers. I think it is a compilation of short items on each of his shows. 

It covers just about everything, not just the puppet series. Starts off with Twizzle, Torchy the Battery Boy, and Four Feather Falls, before moving on to the main SF shows and Thunderbirds movies. There are segments on the movie Crossroads to Crime, and the TV series The Protectors. 

There is even a section on The Investigator (at 2:12), with shots of the car and amphibian in action - very useful for anyone who does not have The Lost Worlds of Gerry Anderson DVD set which includes The Investigator pilot episode - the only one made. 

Then live action, and the later shows, right up to New Captain Scarlet in CGI. While I am familiar with most of these, there were still some items I had not seen before, so it was a very enjoyable watch.
