As a kid in the 60s I remember being fascinated by the guest vehicle in the second THUNDERBIRDS episode Pit of Peril The walking US army vehicle also appeared in annuals and TV21 comic and a porcelain replica appeared a few years back. Watching the video again it would make David A furious but...

Playing with you tub and two of my favourite movies. First up is my home town of Oxford. Never heard of the books until I saw the Polar Bear ad for the film Golden Compass. Like the film for the Polar Bear but had to laugh at Hollywood's images of Oxford in the "real" as opposed to the world...

Those of you who remember the old Gerry Anderson tv shows may not remember a 60s comic called TV21. It had stories based on the Anderson shows but also a strip devoted to the Daleks but without a certain Doctor. I always wanted to see a crossover between the two worlds. Some years back I did a...

Those of us who grew up in the 1960s with the TV21 comic derived from the various Gerry Anderson TV shows remember the weird and wonderful machines featured. After my BAOC Fireflash I decided to revisit Fireball XL5. In the TV21 summer special of 1966 there was a brief glimpse of a possible...

This is an idea that seems to be coming back into fashion. I have a bit of a suspicion that with the concept below, someone may have looked up the old hard engineering data from the production of Waterworld as part of their background research...
