Gerry and Sylvia Andersons "Supermarionation" was ground-breaking stuff and spawned a host of shows. I recall Supercar as the first I saw, followed by Thunderbirds. Who remembers Captain Scarlet and the voice of the Mysterons? Space Patrol too was great stuff, encouraged kids to use their imagination. All great entertainment, probably made on a shoestring budget. I have a sneaking suspicion the n+1th re-run is on a pay-tv channel somewhere, sometime. Roll tape!
