all very good and it feels like it's just them and me in the same room chatting about UFO and captain scarlet . On UFO, can someone explain the end credits with the zoom out from earth (is it though ?) to a barren world just beyond the moon?
It's been quite a while since I last left a 'revating', & as Jamie has asked so nicely.... & constantly... I thought I would. I only listen to 2 podcasts (the other being Blakes 7 in Character) and they really feel like my constant companions through these strange times that were living in. I love the banter, the interviews & the randomiser. Whenever I finish a podcast I always feel like reaching for the dvd shelf & popping on a GA episode. Thank you boys for being with us through lockdown & beyond. Please know that all the work you do is much appreciated. SIG, Rachael Fellows
Really love this podcast, I look forward to it every Monday morning. Its so enjoyable from start to finish. Great banter, guests, newsy news & the fabulous randomiser. Awesome work chaps :+)
This is a truly exceptional podcast. A must for any old or new Gerry Anderson fan. Jamie (Gerry's Son) and Richard are so entertaining and informative of all things Gerry Anderson past and present. Excellent interviews and The Randomiser is one of the many highlights. Listen and enjoy, you won't be disappointed.
Loved pod 36,your tribute to Richard Gregory was excellent and Crispin Merrell 's version of the Terrahawks end theme was brilliant
