CENTURY 21 AUDIO

Fans of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet will be interested to check out new mini LP replica CDs of classics episodes. From Fanderson: "Fanderson has released its seventh CD set of replica Century 21 Mini-Albums. The collection contains adaptations of the classic Thunderbirds TV episodes Atlantic Inferno and Move - And You're Dead, as well as Captain Scarlet is Indestructible, an original audio play from Century 21 Records, featuring the voice artists from the original cast." I always enjoyed how the actor who portrayed Captain Scarlet, Francis Matthews, sounded so much like Cary Grant! Matthews also appeared in Crossplot (1969) with Roger Moore, and in episodes of The Avengers and The Saint. More info at the Fanderson website. Find Gerry Anderson treasures in Spy Vibe's Amazon Associates Store.

  1. Besides appearing in a several classic Hammer Horror films with Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, Francis Matthews was also the star of PAUL TEMPLE, a detective series of his own!

    These mini-albums are a treat because, besides being very expensive to collect on vinyl, were specially edited and recorded with additional voiceovers from the original characters, narrating the story.
