As a child of the 60s then the World's of Gerry Anderson were an integral part of growing up. Action, adventure set in a fantastic world that expanded your horizons and set so many of us on the path of science and technology. The film reveals the genesis of the creative spark in Gerry, his determination to always be better and the sadness of being left out in the cold as times change despite the rich, unexplored potential of the world's he catalysed into being. The film also treats the final years of Gerry's life and the decline caused by Alzheimer's disease with, respect and dignity, more than once I was fighting back a tear. For any fan of the fantastic worlds of Anderson or student of pop culture this should not be missed. SIG.

An exploration of the creative process
Extrodinary! Most Extrodinary!
One of the most eye opening documentaries I've ever witnessed, while the deep faked scenes of Gerry are certainly hit and miss, the raw emotional core this enlightening documentary provides is not one to be skipped. While I chose to remember the man who shaped my childhood with his incredible shows and movies with fondness, there's no doubt this one is going to sting for many fans...
Thunderbirds are Go
A comprehensive film charting Gerry Anderson's life from his childhood to his passing in 2012. His youngest son Jamie produces and guides us through, with both archive interviews with his contributors and new interviews with the likes of David Graham (Parker from Thunderbirds). The archives reveal contrasting stories from the development of his best known works, especially from his ex-wife Sylvia, who was a big part of his success. Deep fake technology is used to bring Gerry back to life, as Jamie discovered hours of audio interviews. The controversy of using deep fake is discussed in the accompanying behind the scenes, also on Britbox and whilst a little jarring at times, it generally works well. The end is very emotional and it's great to see his work so loved to this day.

Didn't paint a very nice picture of him. Basically said he was a miserable prick. His own son hosted it. Not much nice sentiment,
