This episode was particularly dark so I had to brighten it in PowerDirect 10 before putting it through Deoldify. This has resulted in some of the scenes being rather "washed out" and the highlights blown, but it is better than the dark version.
The first episode in colour can be seen here

This from Wiki:
Space Patrol is a British science-fiction television series featuring marionettes that was produced in 1962 and broadcast beginning in 1963. It was written and produced by Roberta Leigh in association with the Associated British Corporation.
Thank you for bringing Space Patrol back on colour. I am now 68 years old and still think it it the greatest.
Great job on the colour Iain. Really brings the show to life. Been following the show since childhood. I'm now 67 years old
I was six years old when this series came out. I remember feeling quite scared/unsettled when I was watching it 😂.
I'm not bloody surprised... I'm seeing it for the first time as a 45 year old man... And I feel scared & unsettled watching it.!
But I'm really enjoying this show.!
Brings back the innocence and carefree joy of childhood
I am Dutch, and this episode and all others of this series are awesome! I was born in 1959 and I grew up with these programs. What a wonderfull time!
I still remember being terrified by this episode! I was 5 years old.
I remember watching these with my stepdaughter in black and white with different shades of gray. She lost interest in them, but not me. Thank you for having it colorized and in order in your playlist.
I am loving this series again, for me about 55 years later.
A very, very early precursor to The Terminator perhaps ?
Thanks Iain. These old Sci Fi videos are great fun.
Also Dr. Who, there was a series about a robot revolt.
Beautiful effects considering the year. The over-the-top accents are hilarious, though.
Had nightmares for years being chased by that robot and the doors saving Larry Dart!! -getting the wife to turn the lights off tonight!!-thanks Iain.
One of my favorite episodes, Thanks for doing these, Iain.
New Zealand here : we never had Space Patrol, we had all the Gerry Anderson programmes, instead. I first learned of Space Patrol a couple of years ago when I came across a Space Patrol Annual in a charity shop.. My guess is it came from the UK with a British child immigrant.
It seems to me that the ,Space Patrol puppeteers had a better system for making their marionettes "walk". Much better and smoother than on Fireball XL5 or Thunderbirds.
Seeing the Galaspheres flying is also something that is very well done. The Space Patrol Annual did not have good illustrations of its propulsion field, though.
I never realised this was made by someone else but always thought it looked better than Supercar. I guess they copied Gerry Anderson because of his programmes being so popular but came up with a more realistic way of making the puppets move. I think I had a Space Patrol annual certainly some kind of book or comic with colour photos of the set during production. Now seeing these in colour for the first time even though uploaded a while ago youtube bot works in a mysterious way putting these on my list after watching colourised film of Titanic.
Another huge thumbs up! 👍
Thanks, I'll definitely power through to the end now ;-)
@@IKP1000 Fabulous bit of public service! ⛑
Incredible job on the colour!
A friendly reminder : If you've been enjoying these segments ( as I've been ) please give a 👍.
WHY AM I ENJOYING THIS SHOW SO MUCH.?????
It's terrible in every way... But I can't stop watching it.! 😂 😂 😂 It's very entertaining.!
another great episode, really enjoying these
I have noticed that it is always cloudy over Space Headquarters.
That's because Space Headquarters is in London. And it's often cloudy over London! The city includes the London Post Office Tower model.
Now…I need…a…Martian parrot 😄😄😉
This is fantastic, thank you.
These are awesome.
DId any of you ever make a little Gallisphere out of a Tinker Toy spoke hub and the two little pointed pieces?
"It come from Uranus." Uhm, ok...
Cosmic!
Maybe I just have a warped sense of humor but some of the dialogue....😆🤣
That walking, talking vegetable from Uranus? Nah. Can't have been deliberate. Can it? 😁
@@ThatsViews I seem to remember one episode where they said something like, "We've never sent a man to Uranus"
Interesting you can't see the puppet strings
Wow❤❤❤❤
I remember watching this when I came home from school but it was in black and white then. Happy days
Robots conquer the Hu mans...
22:51 ouch
Dispite their obvious animation those robots are still kinda spooky ...... reminds of Trudeau's cabinet!
Very clever, but it’s not how I remember it when I was a child. So a bit pointless.
Sorry.
