Supermarionated Shadows

Even though I haven't been blogging over the past week, I've been busy doing other things, like updating my collection of YouTube clips. Here's a musical number from the film, Thunderbirds Are Go!, that features puppet versions of Cliff Richards and legendary 60s British instrumental band, The Shadows. The geeky looking chap in the Clark Kent glasses is unlikely guitar god, Hank Marvin.
