OK no strings, no caps, and numerous other changes in the CGI version, But what has happened to Brains, I can accept the deletion of the stutter, but why a nationality change?

Forgot all about this earlier so watched it on catchup, must say I'm quite impressed. Plenty of nods to the past and the traditions of Thunderbirds but, you can't live in the past so, there have been subtle changes. Must admit I got an old familiar tingle when the count down... " Five...Four...Three..." started and those 'birds roared away. Yes I know it's not real but hey.

Satisfied my curiosity, but don't think I'll be watching it again.

Did you notice the nod to Space 1999 as well? Another Gerry Anderson creation.
