When I was a five year old "Titch" I watched Thunderbirds and always wanted to do the countdown. whilst NOT for Thunderbirds you'll understand why I enjoyed doing this intro ....

I just read that exact line in a gig! George Bernard Shaw, yes?

*ahem* Nice work, Phillip, I can hear the smile in your voice as you tap into your childhood! |

W-w-well, Mister Tracy... I think that was just  -perfect.
There was something sweet about "Supermarionation" ... I go back to "Four Feather Falls"!
Next... I need to hear, Anything can happen in the next half-hour!

Anyone else picture a Thunderbirds marionette version of Philip in his Top Tips video doing this read?
No?
Sure? Ok.
I'll just let myself out.
Lovely stuff!
