The next episode has The Hood in, unfortunately he dies which is why this is one of the last episodes. Make an internal link for Martian Invasion please.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.174.125 (talkcontribs) 20:11, 15 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

The storm scene from The Prisoner????Jatrius (talk) 16:46, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

"A shot of a stormy sky seen in the episode's opening sequence is stock footage taken from the titles of the ITC television series The Prisoner.[1]"

It may be stock footage BUT this Thunderbirds episode was made far before The Prisoner was even shot, let alone aired. Perehaps the reverse is the truer?Jatrius (talk) 16:46, 14 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

That's right - well-spotted. Apologies for this error. SuperMarioMan 18:24, 14 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I shall be conducting the review. -- Matthew RD 22:27, 7 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

This is how the article compares against the GA criteria:

  1. Well written: Notes below, only two notes
  2. Factually accurate and verifiable: All fine. Passed
  3. Broad in coverage: Passed
  4. Neutral: Passed
  5. Stable: No issues. Passed
  6. Images: One image used, non-free, appropriately tagged. Passed
  • All titles (Mr, Mrs, Dr etc) should have full stops after them, such as Dr. Orchard, Mrs. Files.
  • "This was the only episode where Scott Virgil Gordon and Alan all participate in a rescue directly at the danger zone" That is trivial information, most likely posted by an IP user. I would like this statement to be removed.

That is all that needs to be done, do this, and I'll pass the article. Please do it soon, there are giant mutant alligators circling my house! :) -- Matthew RD 22:55, 7 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reviewing! Sorry about that particular sentence, it's something that I missed before. Regarding full-stopped titles, is that in the Manual of Style somewhere? Since the article is about an episode of a British programme, it would be expected to follow BE writing conventions, in which (as I understand it), punctuation is usually not required when it comes to such titles as "Mr", etc. Sorry if asking this question leaves the alligators circling ever closer...

That's fine, the first point does not have to be rectified, as it is not a big issue, I will pass it. Nice work. Now I should really call International Rescue about those alligators. -- Matthew RD 01:31, 8 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
