Pod 38: Fun House's Pat Sharp on Thunderbirds and Beyond

Pat Sharp, best known as the host of TV's Fun House, joins us on the Gerry Anderson Podcast to discuss his love of Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, Joe 90 and beyond as well as to reflect on the overall 'Anderson-ness' of the shows, why they have lasted so long, and why we might never see anything like a cult TV show again in the future.

Plus listener emails, a great randomiser, some talk of continuity errors, 2.5 FAB Facts and all the usual nonsense from the worlds of Gerry Anderson (and slightly beyond).
