Nice little plug for Esso Petroleum Products in there, and quite subtly implemented. I'm not so sure that the Esso tiger really gave you better performance, or that it actually gave you more power, but for those of us old enough to remember the famous slogan "Esso, Put a Tiger in Your Tank" the Esso tiger was part of our childhood in the '60s. What a stroke of genius eh? Building a missile base right in the middle of the Orfordness radio transmitter site! Well, it sort of gave the illusion of Orfordness at any rate! Poor Parker, bumskids along the motorway - just like a dog with worms! Then faceplants out of a tree. I bet he spent a few weeks in the local [dolls] hospital, eh?!

Humiliations galore! One feels a bit sorry for Brains too...

Everyone who watched Thunderbirds Are Go (the 1966 movie) will recognise a few familiar faces. The president of the New World Aircraft Corporation previously appeared as the assembly controller at Glenn Field airbase where Zero-X was launched, one of Captain Foster's henchmen, Carter, looks exactly like Zero-X captain Paul Travers, and Cliff Richard Jr can be seen sitting on the table behind Lady Penelope, although he is wearing thick glasses and a mustache as a disguise so we won't be able to easily recognise him.

I mean come on this so unfair on Alan and Tintin because they deserved each other and so do Scot, John, Virgil, Gordon, Brian and Lady Penelope too when they meet someone and fall in love too. Beside the legacy of International Rescue must continue on to the next generation like the Power Rangers for example.
