Another TV show from a golden age of television, Thunderbirds is by far and away one of the best written, most exciting, dramatic, and most well put together shows you could possibly watch.
It has it all: Fabulous soundtrack composed by the late, great Barry Gray, extravagant looking vehicles, aircraft (particularly FAB 1 and Thunderbird 1), and other kinds of extraordinary machinery, action, adventure, explosions, destructive happenings, and many more.
Also, the villain in this iconic series, The Hood, is one of my absolute favourite villains in the history of television, having the ability to render people unconscious with his hypnotic powers, clever enough to fool people with his wide array of disguises (hence his name) and will stop at nothing to expose the secrets of International Rescue.
And of course, there's the charming and wealthy Lady Penelope, International Rescue's British agent and one of the most important characters in the show. Lady Penelope has all her special requirements:
. FAB 1 - a pink, six wheeled Rolls-Royce equipped with all the weaponry and gadgets needed to tackle villainy and other things
. Parker - Penelope's loyal butler and assistant, whom actually had an adventurous life of his own once
And last but not least, there's Thunderbird 1, quite possibly the most iconic Thunderbird craft of them all (or at least my favourite). Piloted by my favourite character Scott Tracy, Thunderbird 1 is International Rescue's quick-response hyper-sonic rocket plane, normally getting to the danger zone before the other Thunderbird crafts arrive.
To conclude, Thunderbirds is an epic show not to be missed. Absolutely loved it when I was younger, still do today!
Like I always say: You can't beat the classics!
