Series 3

 Series 3 of X-06: FUTURESPY


The Gerry and Sylvia Anderson influences are strong in this season, with cameos from characters who are vocally rather similar to Phones (Stingray) and Brains (Thunderbirds). 'Mission to J7' is very strongly inspired by Fireball XL5, which I was greatly enjoying during it's re-run by Talking Pictures TV in the United Kingdom.
The final episode of the series - a Christmas special - is rather unusual and sets up some themes I'd like to return to one day - X-06's frequent brainwipes by his employers. It's my favourite episode of the series, but I also like 'New Rules' due to X-06's relationship with his new boss, Commander Sinclair.

The 'Who', 'What' and 'Why you should listen to...' of X-06 FUTURESPY!

In this behind the scenes podcast extra, the creator of X-06 FUTURESPY (that's me!) says hello and talks about some of the influences behind X-06 FUTURESPY. There is also an attempt to explain the concept - I'll let you decide whether that is successful or not!

Ghosts of Christmas Past

Christmas is always a busy time for X-06. Here's a reminder of some of his seasonal exploits, past and present. Operation Attenuate In the final episode of the first series, X-06 gives a traitor a second chance at Christmas. Red Alert! X-06 is called in to assist when British airspace is invaded in this silly  You Tube video Should Auld Acquaintance In the latest episode, set over two Christmases, X-06 tackles a sinister Santa! X-06 Versus The Mince Spies The joke is so obvious it had to be done. Check out an  Annual story  that isn't meant to be taken too seriously. Christmas isn't a great time of year for everyone (it certainly wasn't for X-06!) so if you don't have a Merry one, we hope you have a quiet one. Thanks for supporting the show!
