On 22nd June 2019, the we celebrated the first anniversary of the Gerry Anderson Podcast by attending the Space Spectacular at the Royal Albert Hall in London. We were thrilled to see Barry Gray's iconic Thunderbirds March in the Programme.
But when the Thunderbirds theme tune was about to be played live the team couldn't quite believe what happened next...

I have known what you all know for 60+years,we were unbelievably lucky to be born at a time when we got to follow GAs career for over a decade of fantastic shows,we were spoiled for kids TV in general in the 60s,but GA was always the pinacle and we were never disappointed,what a time to be alive,and we were also living through the greatest explosion of pop music and maybe did`nt realise it then,and we still had`nt reached the 70s.If anyone has access to a time machine give me a shout.

When I was a district nurse, I had one patient a lovely lady with MS who had a great sense of humour. When we were hoisting her out of bed and across into her wheelchair, using the electronic ceiling hoist, she always wanted us to put this theme on full volume on the CD player, and it was an absolute blast, craziest part of our day!!

I'm really glad to hear that. There is no reason why it shouldn't appeal to every kid, in one way or another. It's a beautifully crafted show with great storylines, characters and equipment. I'll have to ask my sister what she liked best from this time. I do recall her watching Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and other Supermarionation stuff, but I think that's because that's what was on at a certain time and we were all sat in front of the TV together back then. I think she was probably more into Top Cat, Tom & Jerry, The Banana Splits and Magic Roundabout TBH, but now you mention it I really must find out. 😎🚀

Found this also today. It was aired also in the early 80's as a rerun on Dutch television for kids Pure optimistic show with an epic theme you never forget. We were lucky as a child to have such shows. The poor kids today just have dark pesimistic shows. but for 5 minutes i felt myself a child again, glued to the screen thinking how is international rescue to solve the problem this time.

I am Black, female and a Yank and “Thunderbirds” was my favorite series as a child, so you are not alone, Crystal. I’ve been involved in the fandom for decades and even wrote much of the trivia for the Pop-Up Video version shown in the US, plus I wrote the Tracy boys bios on the “Best Of Thunderbirds” DVD. I am such a geek that I even bought a seat from TB3 from the live action film and had it flown from London to Los Angeles! I have a FB group called Calling International Rescue-you are welcome to come join us. 😁

You cant under emphasize how much joy Gerry Anderson, his wife and team brought to the youth of the 1960s with his TV programmes, and always in front was the genius of Barry Grays music. Why nobody asked him to do a bond theme I dont know ?, I am sure it would have been memorable.

My mum told me this: When I was three, we went to see my gran. When we got in, she was just about to turn off the telly to say hello to us, and the theme had just started playing. I apparently wriggled out of the hug, shot into the room with the telly and stayed there with my eyes glued to the screen for the rest of the visit. I've been hooked ever since.

The first time I ever heard of "Thunderbirds" was when the 2004 movie came out. I was 13 or 14 when it came out. My mom told me it was based off of a TV show she grew up on that had puppets in it. Never saw the movie because I wasn't sure if it was going to be good, and I'm glad I didn't. Now, in 2020, I look up the series and see what my mom meant by the puppetry of the show. This is one of the coolest forms of puppetry I've ever seen, and I wish they continued some shows like that. And the music! I'm crazy about music from shows, movies, games, etc., so this was up my alley. If they ever decide to make another "Thunderbirds" movie, I can only hope that it revolves around all the family and have the plotline make more sense. That would be awesome.

I think you find they do! "This generation" is a huge term so I'll just sum it up. My gen got thunderbirds every morning at 6am. From 5 years old I was hooked. I didn't need an alarm, I was up with the sun to watch the boys save the day. Virgil and T2 made me the pilot I am today. 2015 thunderbirds are go is inspiring a whole new gen. Though it's never going to be the original it is AMAZING. The love and dedication put into it. Weta workshop can stand proudly by their sets. The homage to the original series is always there. Thunderbirds will inspire and delight many for generations to come. F.A.B!

One of the world's most iconic theme tunes for one of the best productions ever made for children's TV. Just a pity Barry Gray, the composer, wasn't knighted. Thunderbirds ........ helping other people!

Absolutely brilliant. This is the sort of thing that should be used to encourage younger people to dip their toes in the world of classical music. Because that's what this piece is. A classic, and one that's as timeless as the show it introduces.

I honestly believe that every child in Britain should be introduced to Thunderbirds as it shows high moral and ethical content and expresses empathy and the need to assist others without expecting any sort of reward. They live to serve and serve to save lives.
