  • 'Fab' Tribute to Puppet Genius Gerry Anderson
    P News Release RS 6 December 2010 ROYAL MAIL PAYS ‘FAB’ TRIBUTE TO PUPPET GENIUS GERRY ANDERSON AND THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO, ON ‘MOVING’ MINI SHEET The puppet characters in Stingray, Joe 90, Captain Scarlett and Thunderbirds have enthralled millions since they first arrived on our TV screens in the 1960s, and they are now set to visit our homes again as Royal Mail pays tribute to their creator in a new set of special stamps. Issued on 11 January, FAB: The Genius of Gerry Anderson marks the 50th anniversary of these ground-breaking programmes, which began with Supercar in 1961. The set of stamps also includes Royal Mail’s first ‘motion stamps’ on a miniature sheet which using microlenticular printing reveals the Thunderbirds take off when tilted back and forth. Gerry Anderson said: “I feel incredibly proud that my work has been chosen to appear on a set of commemorative stamps and to see actual animation of the opening scenes of Thunderbirds on motion stamps, for me, is wonderful.” The stamps, split between 1st Class and 97p values, feature six of his most popular shows: Supercar, Fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Joe 90, highlighting the ingenious characters and incredible vehicles created by Anderson. For many of course, it’s his most celebrated creation, Thunderbirds, that we remember, especially its dramatic 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! opening sequence. Now people can relive that moment through a four-stamp miniature sheet. The countdown begins with Thunderbird 5 - the Earth-orbiting space station keeping a watchful eye from within the miniature sheet’s border, whilst a moving image of lift off is revealed for Thunderbirds 1, 2, 3 and 4.

  • THUNDERBIRDS Written by Peter Hewitt, William Osborne & Michael
    THUNDERBIRDS Written by Peter Hewitt, William Osborne & Michael McCullers Animated scenes of the Thunderbirds on various rescues begin to play as some of the cast and crew names show up. NARRATOR From a secret island in the South Pacific, the courageous Tracy family run an organization called International Rescue. When disaster strikes, anywhere in the world, they are always first on the scene. They go by the name they gave their incredible machines, the Thunderbirds. (Counts down numbers and shows corresponding Thunderbirds) Five, four, three, two, one. Thunderbirds are go! Cuts to live action, Alan Tracy is looking out a school window. But in this family of heroes, there is one son left behind. TEACHER So, gentlemen, we all know that A2 plus B2 equals... C2, that's right. But what happens when we bring in Leonardo Da Vinci's E, F and... (Teacher notices Alan looking out window and not paying attention to the lesson) Mr. Tracy! FERMAT Alan. Alan! Alan's head jerks back from the window and to the teacher who is now standing in front of him. TEACHER How kind of you to come back from outer space, Alan. I trust re-entry wasn't too rough? (Chuckles sarcastically and continues sounding even more annoyed) Here on Earth we've been discussing the Pythagorean theorem. Did any of that happen to sink in? ALAN TRACY I was just... TEACHER Apparently not (she picks up his notebook which he has been doodling in) "Thunderbirds are go." Well, I hope you aren't going anywhere special over spring break, Alan.

  • The Fan-Fic Writer's Guide to Punctuation
    By popular request (well, I like it, anyway): THE FAN-FIC WRITER’S GUIDE TO PUNCTUATION – Part 1 by Hazel Köhler Introduction Punctuation can be a minefield, but an aberrant apostrophe or a misplaced comma can, at best, render your story a little confusing, or, at worst, make it incomprehensible. What sometimes makes matters worse is that no-one has ever accused the English language of consistency. For every rule, there are a dozen exceptions, and that’s only the UK English variety! In my several years as a fan-fic reader and writer, I’ve noticed that there are several differences between accepted usage in the UK and the US. I’ve written this guide from the point of view of a UK English user – Americans and other foreigners, please talk amongst yourselves if you see something that you learned differently, then let me know, so I don’t annoy non-British writers for whom I beta-read! The Aberrant Apostrophe Of all punctuation marks, the apostrophe is the most widely misused. A little while ago, I read a lovely description of how to work out the correct placing of an apostrophe – it’s the dirty fingerprint left over after a letter or two were wiped away from between two words. So, taking that as our starting point: 1 – It’s versus its I wish I had a pound for every time I’ve corrected this one. I’d be sitting on a beach in the Seychelles right now, sipping some luscious drink or other from a coconut shell.

  • We Can Each Make a Difference in 2020
    We Can Each Make a Difference in 2020 Kluwer Mediation Blog December 28, 2019 John Sturrock (Core Solutions Group) Please refer to this post as:John Sturrock, ‘We Can Each Make a Difference in 2020’, Kluwer Mediation Blog, December 28 2019, http://mediationblog.kluwerarbitration.com/2019/12/28/we-can-each-make-a-difference-in-2020/ One of the most enjoyable aspects of the festive season is receiving and reading books that one might not have come across otherwise. This year, I have been enjoying two quite contrasting works of literature. The first is a Manual for Spectrum Agents (Haynes Publishing) providing “detailed information about the Spectrum organisation”, based on the classic 1960’s Supermarionation television series, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. For those of us who grew up with Captain Scarlet (and its predecessor, Thunderbirds), produced by the visionary Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, it is hard to understate to remarkable effect these TV programmes, set 100 years into the future, had on our generation. The book brings it all back. It is a serious exercise in nostalgia. The book reminds us that the basic premise of the TV series was that, by 2068, peace and prosperity had been achieved for the majority of the world’s inhabitants, under the guidance and control of a World Government. A Treaty of Tranquility had been signed in 2046, banning acts of war and aggression between countries and binding them together to fight for one cause – the defence of the Earth. The Republic of Britain was an early dissenter, though it had signed by 2050 following the overthrow of its military dictatorship in 2047.

Jonathan Bignell Television for children: problems of national specificity and globalisation In the developed nations of Europe, and in the USA, it has long been assumed that television should address children.
