★★★☆☆'The Swinging Sixties. Great Britain. Slough'. Perhaps not the most enticing sequence of title cards, but one that gives a perfect indication of the dry humour and charm of this nostalgic and affectionate look at the team that brought us the likes of Captain Scarlet, Stingray and Thunderbirds. For director Stephen La Rivière, this is obviously a work of immense love as he adapts his book, Filmed in Supermarionation: A History of the Future (2014). The doc features extensive interviews with the late Gerry Anderson and all his major collaborators, including his wife and business partner Sylvia Anderson, who also voiced Lady Penelope - perhaps their most iconic creation ("Our Emma Peel", as one of the puppeteers calls her).
