Who could be the star?
Moderator: Spectrum Strike Force

I take it this is OCS you're referring to, Intensity? If that's the case, both Nicole Kidman & Cameron Diaz would be way too tall for Destiny ( as she's supposed to be 5ft 3 ins). Patrick Stewart would certainly have the gravitas to play Col White, but they'd have to make sure the wig was a good one!
I quite like the idea of David Duchovny as Ochre - he doesn't really look like the character. but he has qualities. Can't see Ben Stiller as Fawn though, or Catherine Z Jones as Melody. She's too Mediterranean Spanish or Italian looking to pull off Afro-American.
Emma Watson as Symphony ? A little young, maybe.

Although I seem to recall reading that Melody was based on Eartha Kitt - doesn't seem to me like G A was doing his puppet any favours if that's true, although I think the puppet turned out better !

Yeah, it's all those years playing Fox Mulder. David could easily be the police guy of Spectrum.

This on Eartha Kitt:
Kitt has said that she is not certain of her parentage, beyond that she was born out of wedlock on a cotton plantation in the tiny town of North, South Carolina and is African-American and Native American of her mother's side and of German American or Dutch American ancestry on her father's.

I know he might be a bit old but what about Jonathan Frakes playing senior officer of Spectrum? I figured Captain Ochre but I think I'd prefer my first choice of actor.
And wouldn't Brent Spiner (Data), make a great Mysteron agent?
Edited post to include:
My dad reckons that Steven Fry would make a great Colonel White, I think so too. He's a great British Actor. He did this quiz show, can't remember what it was called but I'm sure I'll out find sooner or later.

Nope I haven't been reading your posts, I just think thought they'd be cool and you could so picture Brent taunting whoever played Captain Scarlet. He's just the best Mysteron!!
They sure do say that great minds think alike, well not here in Wolverhampton as it's probably the worst best place in England. If you've heard of the group Slade, you might just understand.
