In this episode of Puppets Go BOOM!, Arun and Patricia discuss about the 1968 sci-fi/action/adventure film Thunderbird 6 based on the 1965 series Thunderbirds. Brains creates a airship for the New World Aircraft Organization called the Skyship One. Its maiden voyage starts off on a rough note when a man hired by The Hood under the guise of The Black Phantom killed the original airship crew and replaced them as Captain Foster. Alan, Tintin, Lady Penelope, and Parker are onboard the Skyship One to test out Brains' airship, but are suspicious of Captain Foster with his mannerisms and hidden microphones in their rooms. Meanwhile Brains is trying to create a new Thunderbird vehicle with Jeff's disapproving every design he comes up with.When the film premiered in theaters, it was a box office bomb with negative reviews from critics. It was the last Thunderbirds movie until the 2004 live action film directed by Jonathan Frakes. Is it worse than the first Thunderbirds film or is it a misunderstood gem?
