  • Nigel Plaskitt: Captain Black Speaks Out! | The Gerry Anderson Podcast
    Jun 1 2026

    There are so many strings to Nigel Plaskitt's bow that it's difficult to know where to start! Puppeteer, producer, actor and voice actor, he's brought so many wonderful creations to the world, from Unstoffe in Doctor Who, The Ribos Operation to Pipkins' Hartley Hare and PG Tips' Monkey to several of the muppets! He's best known in the Anderverse for voicing Captain Black in the 2005 CGI remake of Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons - New Captain Scarlet!

    This month, Nigel shares the many highlights of his illustrious career, from Muffin the Mule to reuniting with his Scarlet costars to record a very special audio adventure for the new BluRay... And even the Randomiser gets in on the game!

  • The Randomiser | Fireball XL5: XL5 To H2O
    May 18 2026

    Vix from Fuzzbox may be intimately connected with Thunderbirds via the band's 1980s hit, International Rescue, but how will she fare with the Randomiser's choice of Fireball XL5?

    XL5 To H2O is a fishy tale of an aquaphibian on the loose with only the crew of Fireball XL5 to save us! Vix has thoughts on the creature's walk, Professor Matic's eyebrows and how Robert the Robot seems to have a plastic cup for a head!

  • Vix From Fuzzbox is GO! | The Gerry Anderson Podcast
    May 4 2026

    Vicki Perks, AKA Vix from We've Got A Fuzzbox And we're Gonna Use It, joins us as our very special guest, to talk all about her Anderson inspirations and Fuzzbox memories. The band's smash hit International Rescue was directly inspired by one of the Andersons' most enduring series and created a cultural moment all its own.

    But just what does Vix score on the Andermeter, what does the Randmiser choose for her to watch next time, and just how did she get into that Barbarella dress?

Jamie Anderson and Richard James are wonderful co-hosts navigating the world of Gerry Anderson and sharing it with us.

Every week there is a FAB Fact, newsy news (excellent to hear there’s quite a lot of it!) and Chris Dale’s Randomiser. As well as this there are insightful and interesting interviews with people involved in or inspired by the world of Gerry Anderson.

A very enjoyable hour is spent in their company along with some catchy credit music and entertaining contributions from fans.

Gerry Anderson podcast is F.A.B!

I've just been listening to The Gerry Anderson Podcast, do yourself a favour and give it a listen. It's a must for all Anderfans and a ton of fun. Jamie and Richard are superb hosts, there's fantastic FAB Facts, The Gerry Anderson News providing the lowdown on everything happening in the Anderverse, Ben Page's third and final part of his interview with the unstoppable and incredible human being that is Lloyd Scott, Podsteron/listeners communications via email and socials and finally Chris Dale selects a random classic Anderson show and provides an informative retro review with some humorous asides in The Randomiser. Also, stick around for the usual hijinks from our hosts at the very end of the podcast, after the music.

This podcast is absolutely bursting to the virtual rafters with fun entertainment every week. What more could you want ?

Anderlutely FABulous.
