At one time there was discussion
that maybe Sylvia Anderson,

1:09:06
who was the original Lady Penelope, and I,
1:09:09
as someone who resembles
Commander Riker from Star Trek,

1:09:13
could be passengers inside the monorail,
1:09:15
but it became a scheduling nightmare
1:09:18
and I, thankfully, was spared that assignment.
1:09:22
This is the coast of Cornwall,
1:09:24
that Thunderbird 3 is rushing to the scene from.
1:09:34
Nice cut where the camera moves left to right.
1:09:38
Now, the Mole, which we saw
earlier in Thunderbird 2's silo,

1:09:43
has been moved to
another part of Pinewood Studios,

1:09:45
and actually built into the London vault set.
1:09:56
I think this end sequence
shows London in a wonderful light.

1:09:59
The worldwide recognition factor, if you will,
1:10:06
of Big Ben, the Tower Bridge,
1:10:10
the London Eye, the Thames, Jubilee Gardens,
1:10:13
Westminster Abbey,
1:10:15
is a wonderful location.
1:10:18
Shot of the teddy bear stolen from Spielberg.
1:10:21
The idea of placing
this third act set piece in London

1:10:28
was one of the motivating factors
for Tim and Working Title,

1:10:32
in that making Thunderbirds in England
was a no-brainer

1:10:35
but to actually use London as a set
1:10:39
so that the audience in England
would appreciate it

1:10:42
but also a part of London
that is known all over the world.

1:10:47
This is all computer generated,
those extended arms from Thunderbird 4.

1:10:52
I think this water sequence coming up, I love this.
1:10:58
She was wonderful in this.
