Speaking of the Thunderbirds, Bill Paxton (Aliens, Twister) is in talks to play the billionaire family patriarch in a live-action version of the Gerry Anderson cult favorite supermarionation show. Jonathan Frakes is set to direct from a script by William Osbourne.
Remembering classic UK SF
by Doc on Jan.30, 2003, under General News
Got this from the larryniven-l mailing list: You of course know of Doctor Who and Space: 1999. You may know of UFO, Thunderbirds, and Star Cops. But what about Star Maidens (I actually remember this while visiting England as a kid)? Jupiter Moon? The Lost Planet? Take a trip down memory lane or at least find out about British shows you never heard about at Memorable Television‘s Classic UK Sci-Fi Page.
