The Gerry Anderson Podcast

We were so lucky to be joined by Lois Unwin Johnston to watch her father Stanley Unwin in an episode of The Secret Service! Reckoned by some as an underated gem, the series only ran for 13 episodes before being cancelled by the man with the money, Lew Grade. But there is still fun to be had inn watching The Feathered Spies, a tale of espionage, aviation and pigeons!

This month's podcast is a family affair as we welcome Stanley Unwin's daughter and grandson to the Moxy studio. They share their favourite memories of Stanley, answering questions from our loyal viewers and listeners. What were bedtime stories like in the Unwin household? Who farlolloped on the kitchen floor with no one present? And how did Stanley feel when The Secret Service was cancelled?

It's always a thrill when we're joined by an actual cast member to watch an episode of a classic Gerry Anderson series! This month, we were joined by Captain Black himself, Nigel Plaskitt, to watch the Mysteron agent do his very worst.
Mercury Falling is a story full of thrills and spills - and even a Fireball Xl5 homage!
Just who is blocking the controls of the Mercury shuttle? Who is the unknown hacker demanding a ransom for its survival? Could it be that he's been sitting in the chair next us all along?

There are so many strings to Nigel Plaskitt's bow that it's difficult to know where to start! Puppeteer, producer, actor and voice actor, he's brought so many wonderful creations to the world, from Unstoffe in Doctor Who, The Ribos Operation to Pipkins' Hartley Hare and PG Tips' Monkey to several of the muppets! He's best known in the Anderverse for voicing Captain Black in the 2005 CGI remake of Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons - New Captain Scarlet!
This month, Nigel shares the many highlights of his illustrious career, from Muffin the Mule to reuniting with his Scarlet costars to record a very special audio adventure for the new BluRay... And even the Randomiser gets in on the game!

Vix from Fuzzbox may be intimately connected with Thunderbirds via the band's 1980s hit, International Rescue, but how will she fare with the Randomiser's choice of Fireball XL5?
XL5 To H2O is a fishy tale of an aquaphibian on the loose with only the crew of Fireball XL5 to save us! Vix has thoughts on the creature's walk, Professor Matic's eyebrows and how Robert the Robot seems to have a plastic cup for a head!
