Scott Tracy recalls International Rescue's public debut in this thrilling mini-episode of Thunderbirds.
To celebrate Thunderbirds Day (the series premiered on ATV on the 30th of September 1965), we are pleased to present this special presentation of "Trapped in the Sky" for a limited time only. In the 1960s, the soundtracks of select episodes of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Thunderbirds were abbreviated and then supplemented with new in-character narration for release on a series of vinyl mini-albums. In recent years, new visuals were created by members of our team in order to bring this shortened, but no less exciting, version of the episode to life.
Join Jeff, Lady Penelope, Parker, and other favourites for "Trapped in the Sky".

In addition to the extra new puppet sequences for the ep, Alan's breif voice was corrected too :p

This is what the fox kids version of Thunderbirds and Turbocharged Thunderbirds should have been back in the 90s.

@PeachLover94 8 месяцев назад

If I was in charge at Fox Kids in the 90s, I don't think I would do _Thunderbirds_ that dirty or even go as far as _Turbocharged Thunderbirds._ I think I would have aired each episode in order while breaking each hour-long episode into two half-hour parts with little pop-up trivia like how TechTV aired the show before Comcast tried to devalue it in favor of its own G4 before the G4TechTV merger and then took it off after the 2004 film crashed and burned.

@rogeremberson6464 Год назад

Considering the era that Thunderbirds was produced in, it was way ahead of it's time. The Supermarionation was brilliant, you had to look really hard to see the wires. Gerry Andersons idea of a rocket taking off, then landing, and taking off again was considered to be science fiction at the time, I wonder if Elon Musk ever watched Thunderbirds🤔. Because if he did, he's turned science fiction into science fact. What goes👆 now comes👇 and is used again, many times👌 Young children of today should watch programmes like Thunderbirds, to learn what we used too watch on telly when we were kids😊, not all this modern woke rubbish🤢.

@lookandlearn3899 Год назад

I have played that record "21 minutes of adventure" as a youngster so many times i could work out exactly where you paused Scotts narration, particularly in the launch of thunderbird 2. This brought back happy memories of now crackly overplayed records ,some of which are stuck in a corner of my garage , along with that "The Daleks" version of Doctor who which was also audio narrated.....More please

I remember my Grandad having this on a 12inch Vinyl Record back in the day. I loved listening to it, but to have it made into an episode like this makes me all nostalgic and warm inside. Thank you so much for putting this up. Thunderbrids always manages to cheer me up, even during difficult times.

Whenever I watch this episode, it’s takes me back to Friday 6pm on a September evening in 1991, I’ve just started school and my Dad says you’ll love this, tells me I used to watch this when I was your age. I though he was crazy, and I stood there after the opening countdown, completely fixated on the telly for the next 50 mins. Utterly delighted when I found out there was another one next week! Then I go to school after the weekend and everyone else is talking about it. I’m sure every Father knew about it and watched it with their son. Dad always made sure we he was home in time for Thunderbirds for the next 32 weeks, sometimes with fish and chips! What a special time Thank you very much for this, it’s such a special show and your adaptation it’s just brilliant. 5️⃣4️⃣3️⃣2️⃣1️⃣

@stephenbarrette610 11 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for uploading this episode. It’s a really cool ‘super cut’. I remember 30th September 1965 very clearly. I had been incredibly excited about Thunderbirds, having watched Gerry Andersons’ shows from Four Feather Falls. This episode was awesome even though it was on a small black and white TV! I also remember we were going to a family wedding reception, so I never saw the end of the episode for years. Watching the series in HD on a huge TV six decades later is still as much fun, (although I have no idea why the UK BluRay is cropped to 16:9 - and you need the Region 1 for a proper 4:3 ratio) Also thanks for Filmed on Supermariation and the new episodes, they were brilliant and my son and grandson also enjoyed them! You just can’t beat miniature work and your’s is up there with the best. (Bit of a Thunderbird fan and proud owner of several TV21 and Thunderbird annuals from the 60’s, next to a copy of Filmed in…, The Vault and Century 21FX)
