Synopsis

Thunderbirds (1965), Season 2 is the British puppet sci-fi show you can watch online on iFILM — six episodes built with marionettes and scale-model effects, the technique its makers called Supermarionation. International Rescue is back, launching from Tracy Island whenever ordinary help can't reach.

Fewer episodes, but each is its own rescue. Jeff heads off on holiday with Lady Penelope, so Scott runs the show — and a blazing sea rig forces him to decide whether to break the chain of command. After that: a runaway atomic logging machine flattening a town, a hijacked airliner, an SOS from a pirate space TV station, and a Christmas heist on a high-tech vault. Parker and Lady Penelope carry more of the load this time.

Gerry and Sylvia Anderson lean on spectacle — models, explosions, controlled chaos — rather than long arcs. If the first season worked for you, these six are the same sixties warmth scaled up. Stream Thunderbirds Season 2 online on iFILM.
