In this new documentary, join the Supermarionation directors as they offer you a masterclass in filming with puppets – with advice spanning their work on Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, Four Feather Falls, Supercar, Joe 90, The Secret Service, Fireball XL5, and Stingray. How do puppets compare with live-action actors? What were the challenges of working on a Slough trading estate? How could editing bring a film to life?
The action-heavy, practical effects based TV series created by the teams at AP Films and Century 21 brought in huge global audiences and dazzled them with imaginative stories and world-leading filmmaking and special effects.
Featuring Gerry Anderson, David Elliott, Alan Patillo, Des Saunders, Bill Harris, David Lane, Ken Turner, and Leo Eaton.

About Me:
Century 21 Films Ltd is a multi-faceted production company whose work spans drama to documentary, miniature effects to puppet shows. It was founded by a group of filmmakers who first collaborated on Filmed in Supermarionation, the story of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson’s hit puppet shows including Thunderbirds, Stingray and Captain Scarlet.
Since then, we have worked for a multitude of high-profile clients including ITV, BBC, Mammoth Productions, British Film Institute and the Halifax working on projects such Thunderbirds, Endeavour, Doctor Who and The Twilight Zone.
In addition to our regular filmmaking services, we specialise in ‘Supermarionation’ – the puppetry filming technique used to make shows like Thunderbirds and have collaborated with ITV repeatedly to provide specialised services. Our work has been featured on The One Show, This Morning, Good Morning Britain, BBC News, ITV News and Mastermind.
