    "Home, Parker. Home"

    "Yus, m'lady"


    Sad news. Didn't realise she had based Lady Penelope on her own looks.
    And FAB 1 .... a girly pink Rolls Royce - nobody had even seen anything like it at the time.


    Remember in 1966 watching England on the telly beat West Germany to win the World Cup - and afterwards switching over to watch Thunderbirds.

    It was that important.
