Well, in 2015, anyway.

Thunderbirds is returning with a new TV series - 50 years after the cult show featuring the exploits of International Rescue first went on air.

Combining CGI (computer-generated imagery) animation and live-action model sets, Thunderbirds Are Go! will broadcast on ITV in 2015.

The series will "affectionately pay tribute" to the classic show, created by Gerry Anderson, who died in December at the age of 83.

Thunderbirds Are Go! will feature a "whole new level of action-adventure animation for today's audience", co-producer ITV Studios said, with the five Tracy brothers piloting their "incredible vehicles into impossible rescues across the globe".

I have to confess that the bit about "affectionately pay tribute" makes my heart sink a little bit. I have visions of another travesty like Thunderbirds 2068... Ah well, let's wait and see.

I saw that news too on Comicbookmovie.com! Kind of took me by surprise, I've got to admit!

I know Gerry made a mention of this quite a few years ago. I had put it under 'will never see the light of day'.

I'll be crossing my fingers with you, Hazel!

A word to the wise that the second half of the series debuts Saturday 31st, 8.30 on ITV here in the UK. Been catching up on the first half. Judging by the teasers I've seen, we should get to see TB3 in action a bit more.

Can't wait to see what will happen, even if it's TB3.

Hopefully, Alan will have grown up a bit during Summer though...
