A while back during lockdown I recall a company called Century 21 Films making three new supermarionation episodes of Thunderbirds.
It struck me as a massive and heroic mission at the time, to recreate the greatest kids TV show of all time.
Having just remembered six years on and wondering if they ever finished, I've been in search of the episodes, hoping they're available to the public via streaming, so I'm going to look.
In the meantime here's what the company says about them on their own website.
Anyone seen them?

If you find them and they are readily available, let me know, I would love to see them! SFZ
ReplyDeleteI was one of the hundreds of fans who backed the orginal kickstarter and we all got blurays or DVDs of the new episodes plus our names in the end credits! You can watch the episodes on the ITV Retro Youtube channel. Links below.
