No time for these computer animations.

They did the same with Thomas the Tank Engine and ruined that. Thankfully we still have copies of most of the originals from when our sons were little, where they used real model trains.

Our grandson prefers to watch those.

I was mystified as to why Jeff the father has been "axed" from the show.
Seems that in an interview they removed him "to allow the sons to shine" because he was such a major character, he dominated it, did you ever hear such nonsense!
He was a wooden puppet not some "I am a Shakespearean actor and better than this" lovey! :-S

I see the PC brigade have got to work on it we have Kayo the "hot girly" who has her own Thunderbird and kicks ****, while Brains has now become the token non westerner :-D

I don't think I will be tuning to CBBC to watch it but I reckon it will be a hit with the target audience though.

Oh and while we are here, why doesn't John Tracy suffer massive bone loss from living in space the whole time?

geez no, I don't want to watch it.

A few years ago, my brother had a woman in his life who was SO plastic!

She pranced around in such a strange way, we said she looked like she always had just painted her fingernails......... and we gave her the name Lady Penelope.

Anyone watch it ?

What did you think about the new updated version?

Some of it was okay but I think the original was better.
