A tribute to Alan Carter

[@harvey1965]

As an Australian ... I was so thrilled that my all time favourite scifi show included an Aussie as a main character! Go Alan!

[@liverpoolscottish6430]

Alan Carter was a very cool character- many people's favourite as I recall from junior school memories. I'd place him as being equal with Han Solo for sheer coolness- and that's saying something. Top bloke!

[@collegeman1988]

Absolutely loved the first season of Space:1999 and Nick Tate as Alan Carter was a big part of that show.

[@tomahawk1556]

Thank You Space 1999 & Eagle Transporter for making Nick Tate's Alan Carter as the Coolest Pilot in the 1970s until Han Solo came along >>> 🌍💖

[@liverpoolscottish6430]

Alan Carter was a seriously cool character in Space 1999- he was a favourite with UK junior school boys in the late 70's as I recall. Ace Eagle pilot who generally saved the day, and good in a scrap or tight spot. Typical Aussie! Bravo to Nick Tate for a great performance in the series!

[@stephenpalmisano6166]

Great to see this! Thanks for the memories! Alan Carter, Eagle pilot, was a space hero an Australian kid could look up to back in the day!

[@BudLarsenjr]

Love the Jerry Goldsmith track! Cheers to Alan! Eagle ONE!

Bergman: They’re hawks…they’re Mark 9 hawks… Koenig: certainly looks that way Carter: They’re war machines and that’s enough for me……lol…loved Alan

[@emanemanrus5835]

I had loved a spinoff of space 1999 with Alan and Tony Verdeschi as a space-version of "The Persuaders!". Possibly Tony driving (sorry, piloting) a red painted Eagle, Ferrari/Dino branded 😁 ...

Cuántas veces de niño me imaginaba ir al lado del piloto del aguila Alan encima de base lunar Alfa un abrazo fuerte desde Santiago Chile Marcelo Blum

I like the shot from Another Time, Another Place. As he falls over, the camera man's hand can be seen briefly coming into shot to protect himself.

[@gertsy2000]

Great video. Ironic that one of the most well know movie teaser "American" voice over artists is Australian. Well done Nick Tate. AKA Alan!.

[@WalterDWormack214]

Moonbase Alpha's Alan Carter, "The 'Australian' Neil Armstrong"!

[@did3d523]

my favorit character in the show

[@giuseppescilipoti2433]

Mai visto Space 1999... anche questa serie TV britannica l'ha inserisco in lista d'attesa. Questo trailer mi ha invogliato abbastanza :-)

[@michelelongo8257]

La trasmettevano in Italia quando ero alle elementari , cioè tra gli anni 70 e 80.

[@vicg5323]

Allen Carter was a player extraordinaire! Loved the show. Back then I had my walkie talkie com link. Video had a fake picture. Who would of imagine that today we would have the technology to do it. NASA plans include a moon base and man mission to Mars by 2025.

[@aidanamson8568]

I had a crush on him, maybe a Mancrush growing up. He was awesome as Alan

[@syrophenikan]

Capricorn One and Space: 1999 in the same moment. The streams have crossed.

[@martykarr7058]

And then on DS9, he was essentially an alien "goodfella".

[@ToddMorton]

I showed Nick Tate this video and he loved it. He would like to thank you, is there an email he can send his thanks to?

[@baldaxx]

Thanks Todd. Great to hear that Mr Tate liked the video. Actually I'm quite sure he had already seen it because it was expecially made and projected on a big screen when he was our special guest here in Italy in 2007. During that convention he was also reunited with the original moonbuggy used on the show (!). [e-mail]

[@ToddMorton]

He did say he remembers seeing it, he posted it on his website. Www.nicktate.com

[@baldaxx]

Great! Thank you very much Todd.

[@samholden4171]

I only watched the show because i fancied Nick he was so handsome and Martin Landau too.

[@brianjlevine]

Just my opinion, but Alan Carter was the best character on the show, or should I say the only non-wooden character on the show.

[@Soundfackery]

Great video. What is the name of the music you used?

[@baldaxx]

Hi there. It's the music from Capricorn One by Jerry Goldsmith.

[@Soundfackery]

@@baldaxx Thanks so much. Great music, but I didn't recognise it.

[@dazzle1545]

And to think Fred (I ruined Star Trek before Space 1999()Frieberger want to get rid of this character They should have made Cater, Maya's love interest
