Hi, Amazing remembers. Now it's 2024-09-25 when I 'd seen this video and back to my childhood when watched Space 1999 after my classes. Congratulations about your great work. Regards from Spain 🇪🇦
Great video on Space:1999. You have had the perseverance and luck to meet so many actors from the legendary series. Space:1999 forever in our hearts! Thanks from Italy!
perchè queste parti non compaiono nel primo episodio? per esigenze televisive? Sono state tagliate perchè l'episodio, trasmesso in tv, non poteva superare un certo minutaggio?
Si, il primo montaggio era di oltre un'ora e non si confaceva alle esigenze televisive americane. La ITC chiese a Gerry Anderson di tagliare alcune scene e di ridurre l'episodio a 50 minuti. Anderson stesso completo' il montaggio finale.
Doppio capolavoro Epico grazie Giuliano Montalto ed Ennio Morricone per le musiche! Non lo dimenticherò Mai! Il più grande e bello sceneggiato di Sempre!!!❤️
I had just missed the 2014 Peterborough event! Now, the ironic thing is I now live not too far away! I wonder when the next 1999 event will be held in the UK...... Great video!
I think this show should be brought back here on RU-vid , and should be fan based . I think the original producers would like this, and not have a COW like CBS did with Star Trek .
E' passato qualche anno ma ho trovato questa discussione ora. In realtà molti dei dialoghi cancellati nei film li trovate nei libri della collana "Spazio1999" della AMZ. Poi che Gorski abbia molestato il Dr. Russel è in effetti una novità!!!
Fantastic expo, wow! Also, the music of Barry Gray man, so delicious for the ears! This composer knew so much how to play with a theme. Another great master.
Kathryn Dowling, nel ruolo di Monica, un personaggio inventato appositamente per la serie. Per altre informazioni sullo sceneggiato, consiglio il sito www.serietv.net/marco_polo/puntate.html
Just attended. The original props belong to various private collectors who usually display them at special events. The original studio Moonbase Alpha model is now on display at the National Film and Sci-Fi Museum in Milton Keynes, UK. Grazie, Giuseppe.
@@martinlegomovie grazie Giuseppe, any idea as to when is the next meeting /event in the Uk? I’m assuming you live here as well yes? Also didn’t I see a real size 1:1 scale Eagle displayed in one of these science fiction expos? dictionaries
@@enricomarconi1767 Yes, I have been living in the UK (Essex) since 1997 (I am from Palermo). I am in contact with the organisers of the Space 1999 convention (we worked together in the past on different projects). The idea was to organise a big event two years ago but it was cancelled due to covid. Now they would like to do one in London in 2024, which marks the 50th anniversary of the series. As far as I know, 1:1 Eagles do not exist, but I could be wrong. If you want to talk more, you can contact me privately. I am Giuseppe Turdo, author of the only Spazio 1999 book in Italian: Destinazione Obbligata: Alpha. giustur@aol.com A presto.
You are not a professor with the agregation, you do not teach at the level of preparatory classes, first and second cycle university. My opinion on the book of Zienia Merton: "Anecdotes and armadillos", it is not she who wrote the text but Robert E. Wood under the dictation of Zienia. This man died in 1999 at the age of 73, the book came out in 2005, so I deduce that Zienia tackled her work ten years before, in 1995. I said to myself: she was not well educated to write a book , she who had not studied literature. How could I have liked it, I didn't even read it! As there is no French translation, it didn't interest me: I don't read English well enough to understand it, and that's a shame...And that risks upsetting me to the point of take malicious pleasure in destroying it instead of reading it, as I did for "The english book of railways" (1978) by Michael Oldham. However, there were two other solutions: either I contacted a translation company: at 400 words per page out of a volume of 200 pages, it cost €8,000! The word is 0.1 €, 400 words per page, so a page 40 €, and the book has about 200 pages, which is 8000 €, a solution that is far too expensive. The third solution, more manual, was to introduce the book by hand word for word, page by page, almost chapter by chapter on Google Translate, proofread and arrange the translation, because Google tends to translate in little negro, print it then page by page, which represented a tediously long and interminable work!!! I don't know if my pc is equipped to fit a pen on it to scan texts, and I don't know if it's possible to scan the text of a book. So I don't necessarily have an opinion.
I answer you in French, because in English, Google finds my disrespectful remarks almost offensive, you can always retranslate. I really have a knack for making people uncomfortable: Zienia would have looked askance at me to the point of not speaking to me anymore.
I forgot: I hate the second season of cosmos, unfortunately, in the American fan clubs, it is preferred to the first...While in England, it's rather the opposite, but the actors don't care about this detail , as long as we talk about them... All this is the fault of Gerry Anderson: he underestimated his means, believing that the series would have the same success in the USA as in Europe, finally, to return to his money, he was obliged to scuttle it in the way of which we know. The Fanderson Club has lost many of its members, including you. As much as Gerry Anderson had extraordinary showmanship, he was not a shrewd businessman.
Question teaching, you validated a QTS (qualified teacher status) which allows you to teach until third, with pupils of 15 years. In France, this corresponds to PEGC: Professorship in General Education of Colleges. Frankly, I thought you had candidates for the baccalaureate (British A-level). I'm not talking about the Bachelor's degree, nor the Master's degree, which are essential university degrees to prepare for a QTS. About Morricone, we can learn to play the piano "Sacco and Vanzetti" music from the film by Giuliano Montaldo (1971), Joan Baez had composed the lyrics "Here's to you", which were then adapted into French by Georges Moustaki. Look on the web to play Sacco and Vanzetti, the piano teacher explains in French but we can translate, otherwise I will translate it for you. And Princess Sapphire, did you read my directions? Sacred trick as you say, except that for me, it is a passion, to the point of having written a book about it: "Princess Sapphire: the Secrets of the Kingdom of Silver". Unfortunately, Google Books was asking me too much money, I had to give it up. Zienia could have told me her publisher for her book, but it's already too late, for God's sake!
Yes, you are right: with QTS I can teach to A-Level but I have never had the chance to do it. Not much time to play the piano but I love the music, especially the solo trumpet in the orchestral version. As per your book, why don't you try to publish with Amazon (look for Kindle Direct Publishing).
So you teach in the final year, you hold the CAPES option chemistry, which means Certificate of Professional Aptitude for Secondary Education. I don't know the English equivalent, but it fits that. Perhaps you even have the chemistry option aggregation, which would allow you to teach in a higher chair: preparatory classes, faculties or IUT of chemistry; University Institute of Chemistry, technical education body created in 1969, just after the events of May 68 and attached to general education. This brings together several departments: chemistry, electricity, mechanical engineering, computer method and management. Keep giving me details. I saw that you liked some classical songs like me. I don't know if you like film music songwriters like Jerry Goldsmith or Ennio Morricone...
Unfortunately, I can't teach at university level but I am fine where I am. Yes, I like soundtracks, especially Morricone. Lately, I have enjoyed the Eternals (Marvel movie) soundtrack.
That Zienia understood that you knew certain things about her private life, when you shouldn't know, might upset her, to the point of not talking to you anymore, or allowing you to be photographed with her. I hope you're not like me: a former locomotive engineer turned postman, trained as a chemist! Curious mix! Zienia would not stop widening her adorable big eyes! Poor Zienia! His big eyes open to the world definitely closed!!! Just thinking about it hurts, very badly... What a state her body must be in, for almost four years since she left!! But why, damn it, why??!! Maybe you work as a journalist, since you often go to these conventions, or maybe you belong to the Fanderson club, which would be useful for me: I would still learn things that the sites on the web do not say.
No, I am just a science teacher with a passion for Space: 1999 and other sci-fi series. I used to go to convention until a few years ago as a regular fan. I have been a member of Fanderson in the past, but not anymore. I would like to go back to attend conventions one day but it is difficult now.
Science teacher - physics, chemistry or science teacher but natural (biology)? At what level ? Terminale or first year students? And which sections: literature, science, economics?
By the way, Martin, I forgot to tell you this: I saw on a photo that Zienia had a two-year-old older sister. They are photographed side by side. Moreover, I learned on the web on some sites, that she was a mother of three children, which could explain her move from London to the countryside. When you saw her, she didn't tell you anything about it? It's as interesting as it is disturbing. I found the meaning of the first name Zienia or Xenia, it is not a Burmese first name but Greek, and very given in Russia. In Ancient Greece, Xenia (ξενία / xenía), remains the Greek concept of hospitality, and, by extension, gifts offered to a guest. The relationship of hospitality takes place under the protection of Zeus (Xénios) and Athena (Xénia). So Zienia is hospitable like Sandra Benes, like she was in life: lovable and caring. Now, I understand what I missed, and all because of Madame Mark Karppeles, a member of the French fan club, who knew how to disgust me so well with this series, during the Lyon Convention in 1993 !!!

Hello Bernard, nice to see you are still around. I didn't know the link between Gerry Anderson and Tezuka, thank you for that. I used to watch Princess Sapphire as a kid in Italy. Great stuff! I wouldn't say it is disturbing the fact that Zienia didn't reveal anything about her family. Many actors keep their private lives away from their business. It is understandable. On the other hand, if I had asked, she might have told me more. Too late now.
I haven't left yet... I remember another anecdote about the shooting of the penultimate scene of episode 13 season 1 "Collision Course". The action takes place in the main station: Paul Morrow (Prentis Hancock) prepares to detonate the nuclear charges surrounding the planet Astheria. From the big screen where he visualizes everything, he must open a sliding drawer located in his console, releasing the switch for firing... And that's where the filming went wrong: this drawer made a creaking sound that amused Zienia, who couldn't help laughing. "Cut, cut!!" Yelled Ray Austin, after several times he had written in big letters on his cap for Zienia "Don't laugh!!" which had the opposite result. Finally, when Prentis opens the drawer, Zienia is not immediately present on the set, on the other hand for the following scenes when the commander throws a piece of furniture into the post, or during the fight, she reappears, and we do not tell her no text. Then the manga "Princess Sapphire" created by doctor Osamu Tezuka, featured a princess who could not reign because she was a girl. This manga is also a lesson in humanity, as much as the continuity is excellent, we are taken by the action which is a clever mix of marvelous, adventure and moral, that when the film is over, you feel that something something spoke to your soul, like when watching episodes of "Cosmos 1999". This is what prompted Osamu Tesuka and Gerry Anderson to meet in 1965, and make a movie with the supermarionation system (contraction of super-puppet-actuated) "The Milky Way Commando". The figures move their lips like those of the Tracy family, and they have large eyes like those of Princess Sapphire. You can verify. Zienia, who came to sign spellings and products on Gerry Anderson's series in the Fanderson club shop in London, was perhaps unaware of this association between her boss and Osamu Tesuka. Did she know the Princess Sapphire manga? Maybe she would have liked it?
que hermosa serie no me caso de verla ....recuerdo de mi juventud como quisiera conocerlos en persona ..soy de argentina les mando paz y salud para toda la base alfa que viven mas alla de mi mente ..gracias totales ...
