Gerry Anderson - A Life Uncharted Extended Director's Cut
Over a sixty year career Gerry Anderson created some of the world's most beloved children's television series - including Thunderbirds, Stingray, Captain Scarlet, Space:1999, Terrahawks and Space Precinct. In a fitting tribute to this television and film pioneer Gerry Anderson: A Life Uncharted uses a wealth of intimate audio archive combined with cutting-edge AI deepfake technology to allow Gerry to tell his own story on screen for the first time.
With exclusive access to previously unpublished interviews alongside new contributions from friends, family and colleagues, this emotionally charged and deeply personal documentary shares the untold stories that defined his life and body of work. From a poverty-stricken childhood raised by a Jewish father and an antisemitic mother, through a lifetime of personal struggles, this documentary maps Gerry's previously uncharted journey to puppetry pioneer, science fiction master and legendary creator.
Special Features and Technical Specs:

Presented in SuperColorisation
Gerry Anderson created some of the world's most explosively colourful action series of the 1960s and '70s: Thunderbirds, Stingray, Captain Scarlet and Space:1999's vivid visuals stick in the mind long after viewing, their rich, multi-coloured imagery as memorable as their stories, performances and special effects.
But prior to Stingray Gerry produced three Supermarionation series in black and white - their only colour representation being a small number of on-set stills taken during production. Using these as a basis, key episodes of Four Feather Falls, Supercar and Fireball XL5 have been colourised from High Definition remasters using state-of-the-art software, enabling fans to see their favourite shows in a whole new way!
Special Features and Technical Specs:
- You've Never Seen These! and Space City Specials – the acclaimed online showcases for these brand-new colourisations
- Exclusive 16-page SuperColorising Book
