JAMIE ANDERSON
“Even back in 1965, Dad and his amazing teams made each episode of Thunderbirds feel like a mini movie – huge stories, stunning models, and that unmistakable sense of adventure,” said Jamie Anderson, CEO of Anderson Entertainment.
“To see them newly restored in 4K and back on the big screen, marking classic Thunderbirds’ return to cinemas for the first time since 1968, and on the show’s 60th anniversary, is something really special. I’m very proud to be able to share them with audiences across the UK.”
TRAPPED IN THE SKY
The first episode of the classic Thunderbirds. Master criminal, the Hood, plants a bomb on board the new atomic-powered airliner Fireflash before it departs on its maiden flight. Unable to land for fear of setting off the bomb, the crew and passengers’ only hope of survival lies with International Rescue.
TERROR IN NEW YORK CITY
Largely regarded as the most exciting Thunderbirds episode made. After Thunderbird 2 is heavily damaged in a mistaken attack, it leaves the team seemingly without a swift means to transport any rescue gear to New York City. To save a news crew trapped underneath the collapsed Empire State Building.
