Synopsis

An eccentric millionaire and his five sons make up an international rescue team who use a Thunderbird spacecraft to come to the aid of those in dire situations. The British sci-fi series, set in 2065, was the most popular of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's 'supermarionation' adventures and their first hourlong show. It spawned two feature films, 'Thunderbirds Are Go' (1966) and 'Thunderbird 6' (1968), as well as a 2004 live-action version.
