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.

Available to order from next week

 X-06: FUTURESPY will be made available to order from next week. Come back here then or subscribe for more details. 111 pages, containing 3 short spy-fi thrillers. I see them as novelisations of episodes of a lost TV show, but they work as short stories just as well. The book is self-published and will be available through LULU at the lowest price I can set it at. This is my lockdown project, and I’m making it available in order to share it with likeminded 60’s telefantasy fans like myself, rather than having the aim of becoming a rich and successful author (As if!). So I would appreciate as many ‘shares’ as possible - those of you who have already liked or shared the details of this project have my gratitude!
