This week in Gerry Anderson news!

Better keep away from the pool – it’s about to open to reveal this week’s Gerry Anderson news roundup!

This week’s edition of the Gerry Anderson Podcast launched on Sunday evening, and featured the second part of an interview with Morgan Jeffery and Tom Eames of the Two Geeks Two Beers podcast! If you prefer to stick with traditional audio-only rather than our new and improved video format you can still catch it (and all other previous episodes) every week either through our website or via your podcast platform of choice.

Also new this week over on the Gerry Anderson Randomiser Podcast (also available on all podcast platforms) it’s time for Joe 90‘s first real assignment, as he takes on the gunrunner Mario Coletti in Hi-jacked!

Stingray made a triumphant return to British television this week courtesy of our friends at Talking Pictures TV! Don’t forget that the series continues Saturday afternoons at 3pm, and if you miss an episode you have 7 days to catchup via their online (& freeview) catchup service TPTV Encore!

Gerry Anderson Day 2024 is approaching fast, and we’ve got a new t-shirt design now available in the Official Gerry Anderson Store! Read more about the event and the shirt in a new article here!

This was the week of World Book Day, and we ran a new article looking at our popular range of tech manuals! We also ran a 10% off sale at the Gerry Anderson Store to celebrate – did you add any titles to your collections?

This week’s Thunderbirds Thursday article took a look back at the definitive moments of each of the five Thunderbirds craft – but did you agree with our picks?

This week saw the Gerry Anderson Podcast team back in studio recording another block of episodes – including their 300th, which goes live tomorrow night at 7pm! Expect interviews in Pods 300 & 301 with UFO actress Georgina Moon and in 302 & 303 with Lavender Castle voice artist Kate Harbour – but who would you like to see make an appearance on the Podcast? Let us know in the comments below!

March 3rd saw the 110th anniversary of the 1914 birth of actor Donald Gray, the voice of Colonel White, Captain Black and the Mysterons in Captain Scarlet, while popular Anderson episodes that first aired in the UK this week in years past include Fireball XL5‘s Prisoner on the Lost Planet (March 3rd 1963), Supercar‘s Calling Charlie Queen (March 4th 1962), Lavender Castle’s Bird of Prey (March 4th 1999), New Captain Scarlet‘s Rat Trap (March 5th 2005), Stingray‘s Eastern Eclipse (March 7th 1965), Captain Scarlet‘s Place of Angels (March 8th 1968), The ProtectorsThe Insider (March 8th 1974), and Joe 90‘s Lone-Handed 90 (March 9th 1969).
