    I go back to remembering Torchy and Twizzle, if I can mention those here. This series of TH-cams is so good. Lovely to hear David Graham again in his various guises. Excellent. My family have adopted one of Brain's sayings: "I don't think they're gonna make it, Mr Tracy". It is great to include Stingray in these briefings. Well done and keep up the good work! Cheers from me in Oz!

    While living in Cleveland during the 1960s, I only got to see three of Gerry Anderson's fantastic creations airing on local TV. Supercar in syndication early 1962 when (I was four), Fireball XL5 aired nationally on Saturday mornings on NBC starting in September 1963 Stingray was also in syndication aired around early 1966. I didn't get see any Thunderbirds or Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons until I moved out to Southern California as an adult by the early 1980s on VHS tapes.
    Stingray added to my childhood wonderment of the fantastic.

    Watching these "Tech Talks", I totally miss *"Ray Rayner's Rocket to Adventure!"* It was an old mid 1960s weekday afternoons television program that ran on *WGN-TV, Channel 9,* in Chicago, IL. Mr. Rayner, wore spacesuit, and sat at a console of his spaceship, with five screens, each one would let him see a different program. One day, it would be *"Eighth Man",* the next day, it would be *"Gigantor",* my favorite of the progams that ran was *"Stingray"!* I totally loved that submarine!

      It was in a Spectrum agents CV feature from a Captain Scarlet Annual. Each of the main characters had a back story and it said Captain Grey served in the WASPs before Spectrum.

    Wow!
    Who would have thought that Gordon Tracy use to work for the World Aquanaut Security Patrol (W.A.S.P.). So I guess my fan theory of Thunderbirds and Stingray being linked together and taking place in the same earth is true. That must mean Commander Samuel Shore of W.A.S.P. and Jeff Tracy must also know, or at least know of, each other. I even wonder if Brains might have had something to do with the construction of Stingray, and equipment at W.A.S.P.'s base? And I also wonder if International Rescue gets equipment and other things from secretly with W.A.S.P., and that members of W.A.S.P. are secretly agents of International Rescue?

    Oh my goodness, I'm loving these Tech Talk videos and all the ways in which many of the Supermarianation shows are connected. I can't help but wonder how Mysteron threats and/ or other situations (e.g, attacks from Titan, natural diasters or a collaboration between some of the villians within each series) would affect the characters. How would the Tracy brothers' former friends and colleagues react to the knowledge that they form the core of International rescue & vice versa? And, what would the implications be? That's something I'd love to find out.

    Thunderbird 4 is slower but a very stable weapons platform like the Hawker Hurricane and Stingray is the Spitfire fast and powerful. I think it is the best means of expression of description.

    • @whovianhistorybuff
      @whovianhistorybuff 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They're both designed for very different missions stingray is for patrol and combat thunderbird 4 is for search and rescue comparing them would be akin to an F-14 tomcat to a sea king helicopter they both do different jobs and do them both very well.

      whovianhistory buff 2345 - I didn't mean to say that the two craft were doing the same thing. To a degree TB4 is capable of defence of self. Though it's not a first option. Since it is a rescue submersible. Stingray is more capable in combat but has some capacity of sea rescue, but in a more limited sense. The analogy of the Spitfire to the Hurricane is how I best explain the difference between the two. Stingray has the edge in combat over TB4. But when it comes to deep sea rescues TB4 has the edge on Stingray. It doesn't mean that the two can't work together. As Titan found out - the hard way.

      I'm almost entirely certain that _Stingray_ and _Fireball XL5_ were explicitly connected in an episode of _Stingray_ that indicated WASP was a sister organization to WSP. But I'd never heard of any connections to the other shows.

      I'd say Stingray is superior to TB4 in the same way an Apache helicopter is superior to a Sikorsky S-92, the Apache is a combat helicopter gunship and the S-92 is designed as a search and rescue craft.
