Wasn't a programme of his I didn't love as a kid.
Nobody's "indestructible" though.
What was your favourite show?
For me either Captain Scarlet or UFO
Makes me wonder why he was never Knighted!
Thunderbirds as a favourite , followed by Fireball XL5
Oh, what a shame! 😥
I think I watched everything he ever made, from Four Feather Falls, Torchy The Battery Boy and Twizzle, up to Space 1999 and, God help me, Terrahawks!
Particularly loved Supercar, Fireball XL5, Stingray and Thunderbirds, they fuelled a love of science, space and science unction that has never left me.
Thank you, Gerry, for such incredible creations. RIP.
I came in at around the Stingray era
UFO was my favourite. Thanks very much and RIP.
