Revisit your inner Brains or Lady Penelope as nostalgia hits the Cube this evening with Filmed in Supermarionation.
A success story of British entrepreneurial creativity, Filmed in Supermarionation offers a mix of newly filmed interviews, rare and unseen archive footage, reconstructions of Gerry Anderson’s Supermarionation techniques - all hosted by Lady Penelope, Parker and Brains; giving us the background to the ideas and the team who's puppetry techniques and special effects influenced the future sci-fi generations.
The film also pays due tribute to theme composer Barry Gray, whose punchy way with a tune came from that golden age of TV, composing most of the theme tunes for the Anderson series and for shows such as The Avengers.
