Some more photos from the archives. Apologies it's taken a little while to add them!
My need a little help with a couple of the faces in them - so bear with me.
#1) George Sewell; I think a little before the "Special Branch" days.
#2) Wanda Ventham - a few years before her appearance in The Sweeney 'Abduction'.
#3) George Sewell and Gabriella Drake. (Don't remember her wearing the Purple wig in Crossroads )
#4) Work on one of the crafts...
#5) Gerry Anderson (L), Ed Bishop (R) - struggled to remember the face in the centre.
#6) ED Bishop (R) - who's in the car, is it George Sewell? This on the backlot at Elstree.
#7) Great Car Ad....
8) George Sewell & Ed Bishop
9) Gabriella Drake
Its Patrick Allen in the car.

Pic no.7 is Deborah Grant, she later played Jim Bergerac's ex-Mrs. That episode of UFO she's in with the Porsche 914 is quite spooky, 'Psychobombs'. The 914 was probably one of the first in the UK too. Villain

Wow. Thanks 3L. Yeah. Wasn't he the first Barratts home man as well? Or am I getting my gravelly voiced actors mixed up?

The voice of Patrick Allen always reminds me of a possible Nuclear Meltdown! I've never been the same since seeing "Threads" and those Protect & Survive films!!

Threads was scary as... Still a very good/powerful piece of 80's TV.
I wonder if Patrick Allen lent his talents to FGTH?

It was indeed Patrick Allen who did the voice over on Two Tribes. A rehash of his Protect & Survive PIF. Chris Barrie did the voice of Ronald Reagan on the extended 12" release. Gene.

LOL! I love the idea Chris Barrie did Ronnie Reagan's voice for FGTH.
I Wonder if Ronnie and Nancy were fans?
