History:

Data from Spectrum files withheld. In deference to the deceased agent’s family, the Spectrum organisation will not release any personal information of Captain Brown, such as real name, place of birth and date of birth, etc. The first and only sighting of Captain Brown in the series was apparently his first taste of commanding a mission, according to a statement from Captain Scarlet to Brown. “Well, your first big assignment, I wish you luck.” in “The Mysterons”. Just after the failed Zero-X mission to Mars in February of 2068, whilst driving in a Spectrum saloon car, Captains Brown and Scarlet were killed and Mysteronised when their car was forced to crash. The Mysteronised Captain Brown then set about following the Mysterons' first plan to assassinate the World President (“The Mysterons”). Transformed into a living bomb, he exploded, but failed in his mission, as the World President quick thinking help him save his life.

Notes of interest:

Charles Tingwell also provided the voice for Doctor Fawn, and for a number of supporting characters. Before “Captain Scarlet”, he had recorded character voices for the last episodes of “Thunderbirds” and in the feature film “Thunderbirds are Go”. He later starred in “Catweazle” and the “Mindbender” episode of “UFO”. Outside of Century 21 Productions, noticeable role was that of Inspector Craddock in the “Miss Marple” movies, including “Murder Ahoy”, in 1964, with Francis Matthew (Captain Scarlet’s voice). He also played the brother of the same Francis Matthew in “Dracula Prince of Darkness”, in 1966.
