Feeling the heat like a dog in front of a roaring fire, we find ourselves panting away the day as we beaver away, creating the most classic, cool and funky creations we possible can. With the fans blowing side to side sending paper everywhere like an impatient child, we'll remain calm, collected and determined to finish the task at hand with the help from ice cool drinks, summer songs and our unwavering desire to be awesome!

Air tanks and flippers! It's time for another retro movie filled weekend.

Like an experienced and battle scarred shark diver, we find ourselves dipping our feet once again into troublesome water full of majestic and wild beasts. After checking all our gear and steadying our nerves, we'll push off and dive down into the big blue, home to our creatures of interest. With a perfect balance of tranquillity and awe-inspiring power, we'll swim with some of the most feared and respected beings on the planet as they quietly and curiously inspect our presence.

Well buckle up and call be Bruce! It's only another retro movie filled weekend. Time to crack out some classics!

Like a super keen and well-prepared applicant awaiting a job interview, we'll let the anticipation slowly rise as the moment of truth draws ever closer. Taking deep and controlled breaths, we'll feel the tension rise as we scan our notes over and over, remembering to sit up straight, speak clearly and with confidence. Will we land the job of our dreams? Only time will tell.

5....4....3....2....1....Thunderbirds are GO!

We can still remember it now, the opening titles, the excitement of getting to see what the heroes of Tracey Island would be up to next and what catastrophe or evil villain they had to deal with, all taken in their bouncy, puppety stride.

For as long as we can remember, we've been the biggest fans of Thunderbirds along with a whole line of kids from its humble beginnings back on September 30th, 1965 (nearly 49 years ago!).

It had everything, the characters, the gadgets, the cars, the planes and of course....its own Island! Not only that, but at every moment you found yourself trying to spot the strings (which wasn't tricky) and also when they had used someone's hand....probably the tea boy's, but all the while trying to believe it was all real. Simply magical!

Now, hopefully some of these won't act as a spoiler and perhaps young fans eyes should look away, but we've been busy digging out some of our favourite pictures of the creative geniuses putting together this iconic show for you all to see. Take a peep at our amazing 'string' of classic behind the plasti-scenes pictures (not even sorry) :) Enjoy!
