A site run by Dennis Lowe has posted 2 very interesting video interviews on Ian Wingrove who worked on such shows as Thunderbirds in the speciall effects workshop.
As I cannot provide a direct link, I will provide the main site link which shows the main interview. You can look at the 6th and 7th articles which feature Ian Wingrove. I believe the main interview (45 mins) is conducted by David Sisson, well known model maker.
The second video is a summary of his work and includes mention of Thunderbirds and Stingray.
Dennis' site also has a lot of other very interesting videos, especially a series from ALIEN and ALIENS, including rare photos. Definitely worth a visit!

Contributor to TV Century 21 and the man behind many Barry Gray releases and events, Ralph Titterton, has collaborated on the new, official Barry Gray website. It is now live at www.barrygray.co.uk.
The site includes lots of information about the prolific composer who produced music for the very first Gerry Anderson show "The Adventures of Twizzle" all the way to the first series of Space:1999. Many of this compositions are now available in CD form, largely in part due to the tireless work of Ralph over the years.

When the Joe 90 CD was released in 2006, I conducted an interview with Ralph Titterton and Tim Mallet, the men behind the release of this Barry Gray CD and all the earlier official Barry Gray CDs.
Ralph has in his possession the entire Barry Gray music library on analog tapes. Tim Mallett is the audio technician who worked with Ralph to clean up the tapes, re-mix them and create new audio masters suitable for production of the CDs.
This exclusive interview provides a great deal of information about the music source and level of effort that went into the production of the CDs.
Full interview after the jump.
