SAPPHIRE & STEEL

After starring in The New Avengers in the 1970s, Joanna Lumley joined The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’s David McCallum to star in this supernatural sci-fi fantasy. They play a pair of ‘interdimensional operatives’ who are tasked with protecting the universe from malevolent forces. Some of the mysteries the enigmatic pair face are people trapped in photographs and ghosts lost in time.

THUNDERBIRDS

The sci-fi puppet adventure series from Gerry and Sylvia Anderson is their most famous creation and a cult classic. Set in the 2060s, it follows the adventures of International Rescue, made up of members of the Tracy family, as they race to the aid of people in perilous situations, in a fleet of special vehicles.

THUNDERBIRDS: 1965

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the puppet series in 2015, the Tracy brothers enjoyed three new adventures, made by using the original 1960s voice recordings, while the puppets, sets and models were created by hand to match the originals.
