I got that some years ago and it has several black & white photos with a color section in the center. Series-wise, it runs up to DICK SPANNER. Not a bad book, but there isn't much detail given about the series beyond a cast list, number of episodes and short synopses of them.

It's okay, but note that Chris Bentley is writing a new all-Anderson series episode guide, which should be published later this year. The old book is all in black & white, and has a lot of errors in it. ALSO, Chris has found a publisher for his proposed "Complete Book of UFO", which Carlton was not interested in, so he will start writing this after he finishes the all-Anderson book.

Hi Marc!
Thanks for the updates! Can you tell us any more info on the first book? Second one sounds interesting too -- I wonder who will publish it?

All I know is that it's supposed to cover every Gerry Anderson production from 'Four Feather Falls' to 'Lavender Castle'. And if you've seen Chris' "Complete Book of Thunderbirds" and "Complete Book of Captain Scarlet", then you'll know that this new book will probably be quite impressive! Marc |

>will do, too :) Well, I appreciate your vote of confidence, but I think Chris will do an excellent job! I on the other hand have never written a book, nor do I really know what's involved in putting together a book that would be full of photographs. And besides, I hardly have enough time to work on my UFO website as it is, how would be if I was trying to also write a book?!! Marc |

I didn't read through the episode section too closely but i really enjoyed the making of section (Or whatever it was called) in the front part of the book. I bought the Capt Scarlet one but haven't read it yet. One of the really cool things about the Thunderbirds book is you see really young pictures of people like Keith Wilson and Brian Johnson working on the show. I was pretty impressed with the whole thing. One the subject of the complete Gerry Anderson episode guide book it's alright, I have it but I really don't use it much with all the information available on the web. My interest in it is as a collectable, instead of a resource. > I on the other hand have never written a book, nor do I really know > what's involved in putting together a book that would be full of > photographs.

I've spoken to Mateo Latosa at times about including UFO in these books on some level (Right now there are no plans so don't freak out!) but Mateo really isn't much of a fan of UFO. His knowledge of Space is expansive though and it shows in the books he's published so far. But who knows, Bill Latham and Mateo did such a great job on the characters in Space 1999 Resurrection I can't imagine what they'd do with the character of Straker who just shines over the years. Anyway, if they ever decide to do anything UFO related I'm postive Marc will be the second person called! Right after Carlton! |
