Gerry Anderson, the hugely influential creator of Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet, made a spectacular return to puppet animation in the early 1980s with an exciting new series produced with Christopher Burr. Thrilling yet another generation of children (and adults!), Terrahawks introduced a new elite force to defend 21st century Earth against a host of alien invaders. Led by the heroic Tiger Ninestein, the Terrahawks crew consists of Captain Mary Falconer, Tiger's second-in-command; fighter-pilot and pop star Kate Kestrel; the poetically inclined Lt Hiro; and Lt Hawkeye the gunner with computer-enhanced vision. Assisted by a legion of charismatic spherical robots known as the Zeroids, they battle a cabal of evil adversaries none more terrifying than android crone Zelda, the would-be conqueror of all ""Earth-Scum""!
