The Gerry Anderson Podcast

It's always a pleasure to watch an episode of a classic Gerry Anderson series with someone who was intimately involved in its making, so it was a special treat when the Randomiser - quite unexpectedly - chose an episode of The Protectors to watch with John Cameron.
John composed and arranged the incidental music for the series, and he shares a few thoughts and memories as we watch the episode, Lena , together!

Author James Swallow joined us this month to tell us all about the upcoming Thunderbirds anthology International Rescues, but he had a much more important job to do - Press the Randomiser button! Luckily, James is familiar with the Randomiser's choice, having been a fan of Space 1999 for many years, and even writing for Anderson Entertainment's novel range.
The Full Circle divides opinion among fans, but what will James make of it?

Our special guest, writer, director and producer Chris Chapman, has fond memories of watching the later Supermarionation series like Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet, so what has the Randomiser chosen for him to watch with Chris and Richard?
