only first episode?

I suspect it's a tester but I would have thought wires in some of the special effects would have needed to have been removed at that resolution and some effects updates.

I'd rather they were doing a full remake, like Space 2199 or something...

Could never see it happening.. It was of it's time.

£30 for the first episode because it’s packaged in a Steelbook. I am a massive Gerry Anderson fan and Steelbook collector but no way would I play £30 for that!
