Default What happened to thunderbird 5?

Something that has been concerning me for a while now-

The theme tune from the new thunderbirds movie, by 'busted', starts "4 - 3 - 2 - 1"

I'm getting a bit worried that they've forgotten all about poor old John Tracy, stuck up there in puppet space in Thunderbird 5, unless it's been de-commissioned.

The theme is by Busted. Is there no justice in the world

Hey RRH, you're wasted here. You could be having a promising career in Muppets.

In the trailer for the new movie it looks like 5 gets hit by an asteroid or summat.

I wonder if they've given away the ending?

How much is a decent original Thunderbird 2 with the little Thunderbird 4 in the pod, with the little red plastic legs that didn't hold it up without bending?!

I had one; stupidly threw it away many years ago.

I've got a "modern" version of TB1, 2 and 4, and FAB 1. Tokens from cereal packets in about 1999-2000. Not the 70s versions unfortunately, but good enough to keep me happy

I had the 70's version and some other bits as well, even had Lady Penelope's car, if only I'd kept them...

More importantly.......... What happened to Virgil Tracey ???? He's the most ugly git I've ever seen... nothing like the smoothy in the puppet version. But then , Gerry Anderson was NOT included in the making of the movie so I guess that will explain a lot !
