2012 claws another great from us.

I am devastated. The first big Christmas present I can remember getting was a model of Tracy Island. :(

Thunderbirds was always my favourite of his shows, and this is my favourite bit from perhaps my favourite episode.

With cannon shot and gun blast smash the alien. With laser beam and searing plasma scatter the alien to the stars.

Yeah. Such a large portion of even my childhood was watching Gerry Anderson's stuff. Just about all of it was brilliant or approaching that level.

May he rest in peace.

A man who entertained generations of children. His biography was the first I ever read. RIP.

Am I a good man or a bad man?

RIP the creator of the Thunderbirds! A fitting last salute:

I adored Captain Scarlet as a child. It's a real shame to see him go.

Gimme yer lunch money, dweeb.
