Thunderbirds made me a electromechanical design engineer. I was fascinated by the designs and the engineering even though I was only about 7 when I first saw it back in 1967. Thank you Gerry Anderson and all those great model makers.
As a kid sat in front of the TV this was the best thing I'd ever seen back in the early 70s. Just watching this and I was back there. 57 now and can still watch these creations with very happy memories. Thunderbird was the ultimate then as well as Captain Scarlet.
Thanks for uploading these special videos. I like all the launches, but I particularly like the flutter of smoke as FAB 1 leaves the pool. That smoke is like the graceful flutter of a lady's dress. And it adds to the stylishness of Thunderbird 1, I think. My sincere respect and admiration to all the staff involved in this work. Thank you.
Fun fact: The five Tracy brothers who piloted the Thunderbirds were named after five of NASA's Mercury program astronauts: Scott (Carpenter), Virgil (I. "Gus" Grissom), Gordon (Cooper), Alan (B. Shepard) and John (Glenn).
I read somewhere that if Gerry had the chance to remake Thundebirds when he was still alive, he would have changed two of the Tracy brothers gender. So I wonder how that would have worked out. 🤔
Valentina, for the first woman in Space (Valentina Tereshkova) and , Sally for the first American Woman, Sally Ride. Sally would have crewed Thunderbird , which would take the place of the Space Shuttle and Valentina Thunderbird 5 THE SPACE STATION which remained in space as the Russians pioneered long stays in space. Sally would be especially appropriate as she discovered why the Challenger disaster happened.. so it would have been the 2 brothers who crewed those craft.
@@minicle426 Valentina V. Tereshkova was the first woman in '63, but NASA, not until '83 with Sally Ride. To go with the Mercury theme of the sons. It would depend a lot on when the remake was done. Politics would come into it. Post 1991, with the fall of the USSR, would allow for Tereshkova and Ride. Controversial choices of Gordon and Scott for the swap.
Little touches, like the ferns in front of Jeff and Parker swaying in the breeze, or the coolant leaking out of the seals of TB3's tanks as it launches, 99.99% of people wouldn't even think of such things !! Except Mr Anderson and his team ! And to think the technology of the time was the equivalent of banging rocks together ! Just WOW !
Amongst all the other things to wonder, would be interesting to know just how many people in how many countries saw Thunderbirds during their childhood
It seems like it was like watching it yesterday. A bit of silly trivia but something i have always wondered is when Alan's sofa is replaced the space it fits back into is the same as the one that went down as you can see by the floor tile lines but as the two sofa's pass each other the replacement is going straight up behind them.
I had this same thought as a child. In my simple mind the long metal poles were bent slightly, each with a sofa on the end. Always remember thinking that wouldn’t work very well. The alternative I considered was a small hole that was very deep until the sofa & floor piece came back. 😂
😂😅 You must be kidding right ?. When I first watched this now classic series. It was only shown in black and white. I had to pay my weeks pocket money to see it in colour at the movies. And an adult to see the whole series repeated in colour ! ⚠..
One of the many aspects viewers weren't supposed to think too much about :) FWIW, TV Century 21 magazine did a cutaway drawing of the TB3 launch bay that solved this problem (in direct contradiction of what was seen on screen) by stating that the sofa came down, and then as it rolled off towards TB3, another sofa rolled into its place and was then pushed up through the hole in the lounge floor. TVC21 also did articles on Lady Penelope's first visit to Tracy Island that completely contradict Introducing Thunderbirds. Despite the comic being made at the same time as the TV show and records, by the same people, they were happy to diverge on details - there was no sense of trying to make a consistent continuity across all media.
I would liked to see a scene shot from the behind the scene of Thunderbird 3 because I'm always curious to know how they manage to pull it up from under neath the round house at it's huge size while getting ready to launch.
Great stuff - I had the records and recently got the three superbly produced episodes on Blu-ray for my grandson (and me of course). However, even as a 12 year old in the sixties, I always wondered why Thunderbird 2 needed a launch ramp at Tracy Island but was fully VTOL elsewhere! (Fuel saving?) Coolest design of a sci-fi craft ever, thanks to the brilliant Derek Meddings. I’ve still got my original T2 (and my son’s bigger T2 from the early 00’s)
As a child, I thought that many of the little details of these launches were added simply to make it look cool. However, I later realised that there are good explanations for many of them. For example, the exhaust port that pops out of the road for T2 is critical for secrecy: you wouldn't want spies to see obvious burn marks on the tarmac! Also, the cutout piece in the wall for T1's nose cone looks like a stylistic choice, but perhaps it was necessary because they had limited space when excavating the cavern and had to make compromises. The adult perspective on all this is quite different and rather interesting. The two biggest question marks for me are: (1) what's the scale of T3? It seems inconsistent with that house! (2) How do they get T4 back into the pod, and how do they get the pod back to the base? Can T2 land on the water and recover it? I can't remember whether that was ever shown.
It needs it because, being a small island , the runway is not long enough to generate the thrust a heavy ship like Thunderbird 2 needs. I know this beacuse I flew to Madeira, another small island, the thrust and speed for landing and take off was incredible
Always wondered why the white three on Thunderbird 3 when taking off is in Futura format. Going through the hole in the round-house it becomes Eurostyle condensed (I believe that's what it is). Then when well clear of Tracy Island reverts back to Futura.
Why did it take me 50 years to realise that Thunderbird 2 could never lower itself on to the pod like that, as the adjacent pods are too close together? I wonder if the original designers ever discussed this, or just hoped we wouldn't notice? The problem was solved in the TAG series by giving TB2 folding wings that don't lower until it's gone past the palm trees and is on the launching ramp. ♥
Parker - 'Da pod fings opening, but it's an awful long way away' Lady Penelope - 'Parker. It's right next to us. You're holding the binoculares the wrong way round'
I went, many years ago, to a convention called Fanderson and met Shane Rimmer, amongst others and Jerry Anderson was a guest speaker but we were warned NOT to mention Sylvia or he’d walk out !!!!
1:28 ... Now, I can NEVER unsee that bloody Thunderbird 1 launch bay LEMON SQUEEZER! 🤣 3:49 ... Thunderbird 2 reminds me of some sort of GREEN REPTILE! ... Like a flying Terrapin! 5:57 ... Thunderbird 4 reminds of an amphibian version of Del Boy's THREE WHEELER! ... "Only Fools And Evil Hoods" 8:24 ... I hope it won't make Alan BIG-HEADED, if I say he's kinda cute! ... Wonder if he'd be up for some "no-strings fun" on Thunderbird 3 ? 🤣 That was a FAB video! ... I'll have to go now. My teapot's bleeping!
The TV show of my childhood. Those engines were so cool! I had toys of TB1 and TB2. At 61, I still find them cool, but I laugh at the "loose physics" and all their HQ nonsense. Even as a kid I was aware of that I think. But imagination was funnier than reality. The Thunderbirds of my childhood were in French and called "Les sentinelles de l'air". Bonjour from Montréal QC !
I always wondered why you never saw the cover over TB3 silo at the Round House slide away just before its launch. There must have been one...to hide TB3's location 🤔
Deleted scene: Scott Tracy standing with the rescue survivors, clipboard in hand, tabulating up the bill for services: "OK, folks...we safely got the cat down out of the tree, so lets see now....seven time-zones of travel, two million eight hundred and twenty-two thousand pounds of fuel for Thunderbird 1, and Thunderbird 2...pod one with the retractable robotic turbo crane; pilot fees for both Virgil and I; legal fees for skipping passport control (INTERNATIONAL rescue, amirite?!😄), our non-refundable service fee for coming out here - no worries, I waived that one since we did the job . I gave you a 10 percent discount for the damage to the other five houses on the block - sorry about that; hard to see out of Thunderbird 1. Or thunderbird 2, for that matter - at least that's what Virgil says; I wouldn't know because he NEVER lets me switch (bastard), so I'M the one with the least free time of all my lazy-ass brothers (at least I was mom's favorite, may she rest in peace). AnyWHO....that comes to seven million-three hundred-twenty-two thousand, six hundred and three dollars, and twenty-nine cents. Ooops! Sorry. Euros. uhhhh give me a sec..." I'll see myself out.
Yes,in at least one episode as i recall.She lands tail first back on the launch cradle.The US airforce experimented with a similar technique back in the 50s and now,we see it happen with the Space-X rockets.
according to a "legend" Penelope was created using Sylvia Anderson as an example. When I was a child I would living in a house like that on an island and have all those technology.😂
International Rescue gave us the estimate and they can do the rescue for 175 million in 1965 dollars. They have a lot of hyper-expensive equipment, facilities and staff. But, the insurance company says damage and rescues caused by Godzilla are specifically not covered in the insurance contract. They took some bad hits in the last three destructions of Tokyo. Forget International Rescue. Well, tell the families that it was a terrible tragedy and we will give them a million dollars each for their loss. Time to cut our losses.
As a child I remember watching Thunderbirds on its initial broadcast,I think I was 5 ?......Even back then I noticed that when TB1 starts to move down its gangway,the next time we see it it's rotated 45° on its axis....anyone else ever notice ?.
2 spoilers... Why don't you see TB1 do its 90degree turn when coming down to the launch bay? (They got it right in the films though, but the shot in the launch bay isn't as good!) Can you spot the little stick at the back of TB2 to stop it sliding down the ramp immediately before takeoff?
I think it just lands on it and lifts back up as like in The Man From M.I.5 when it lands on the water to release the pod instead of dropping it from further up in the air
He will more likely his base in an extinct volcano near Japan to launch and return rockets capturing and Russian and American rockets intending to start a war between them …..
Thank you so much for continuing the legacy of APF/Century 21. Absolutely loved Thunderbirds 1965.
Even at 61 years old I still love Thunderbirds with great music and action what not to like 👍👏👏

6 decades later, and still amazing and never beaten. Gerry and the gang were certainly ahead if rhe curve
1965 Barry Gray's iconic musical themes
So many memories of childhood caught up in one show. Loved this show and the music was fantastic too. Liked thunderbird 3 the best
Just delightful! Thanks to all those involved that created this!
thank you i enjoyed watching that Thunderbird 2 was my favourite
F-A-B !!! thanks for that old memory.. in 1080p 🤩🥰
It was magical to watch as a kid and it’s even more nostalgic now. A classic mid century modern look at the future !

Those palm trees diverging to let space to the runway are genius.

05:42 I'm good old Parker has those bincoculars the wrong way around 😄
The launch sequences were one of my favorite parts, including Thunderbird 6. 😉
Thunderbirds are Go! I love it

Except Mr Anderson and his team ! And to think the technology of the time was the equivalent of banging rocks together ! Just WOW !
Coolant and bad sealing was what destroyed the Challenger space shuttle- so ithere was more truth to Thunderbirds thananyone could have suspected.
I still love & enjoy this wonderful series after all these years
I bought the series on Apple but still watch these on UA-cam. I love the “making of/behind the scenes” stuff.
Amongst all the other things to wonder, would be interesting to know just how many people in how many countries saw Thunderbirds during their childhood

You gotta feel for Gordon as he plummets 100 feet inside that pod and it smashes into the sea.
Thunderbirds is the most popular puppet show on strings
I love the thunderbirds
2:00 If I ever wonder about scale of the model, I just look at the lemon squeezer to the right of Thunderbird 1 : )
Yeah. . . .the "lemon squeezer", I didnt notice that until ya mentioned it, cool👍🏻
I always wondered what they made the siren out of.
Looks a bit like a colander

Did they ever show how Thunderbird 2 picked up Thunderbird 4 in its pod after a mission?
Nope 🙁
Why didn't they show Virgil getting to Thunderbird 2 ? That's the best way out of the lot, but still enjoyed this
We never got to see it happen in reverse when he got back from a rescue.
@ilovevegimite I do recall seeing TB2 & 3 RTB, and that was in reverse, never saw the pilots return to the living room
I’m sure Thunderbird 2 doesn’t need that ramp as it can take off vertically every other time?
Yeah, but it looks so damn cool!
They bring this up on the Tech Talk video featured on the Gerry Anderson channel. Apparently it's more fuel efficient.
It needs it because, being a small island , the runway is not long enough to generate the thrust a heavy ship like Thunderbird 2 needs. I know this beacuse I flew to Madeira, another small island, the thrust and speed for landing and take off was incredible

Landing back must have been a nightmare.
Fantastic, a great memory-jogger. I'm guessing that the audio came from one of the Thunderbirds audio adventures on 45rpm vinyl?

In that TB1 launch bay, under the lemon squeezer, are there 2 'blue' industrial electric sockets with left up flaps painted grey???
Always liked Barry Grays music for Thunderbird 3
The boarding scenes for the vehicles are elaborate because they didn't want the dolls to walk around as much as possible.
Maybe I was the odd one but I wondered as a kid how they got this base built with 5 sons, and old guy and a nerd. Who poured the concrete.
