Together We'll Lower The Ratings!

It's gone.

It's really gone.

Thunderbirds are gone! *howls in despair*

You see, I wanted to see if there are any Thunderbirds episodes on Talking Pictures TV the weekend after the weekend it airs, and I got a nasty shock. No, Brains hasn't messed up my essay about why Talking Pictures TV is the best, oh no. It's that Thunderbirds, has been replaced, by a STUPID CHILDREN'S FILM! I don't know what those maniacs at Talking Pictures TV were thinking, but somehow Sarah got hit in the head by a coconut and didn't want Thunderbirds on the schedule because it was too gritty for children watching this strand.

So, Talking Pictures TV, if you're reading this, please know that I am sick and tired of watching you, especially on Saturday mornings now. You treat Thunderbirds as if it were an uneaten box of chocolates, not touched for a million years - perhaps 60, if you count the years Thunderbirds had aired on our screens. Eurgh, I hate to imagine how a 60 year old box of chocolates would taste like. From now on, I'm watching Disney+ and Rewind TV.

I was really looking forward to watching Thunderbirds as part of Saturday Morning Pictures, but when you announced yet another stinky film from that lousy Children's Film Foundation, I am utterly disappointed and shocked. Why would you do this, Talking Pictures TV? I HATE YOU!

You hear me?!

I HATE YOU! I HATE YOUR FILMS AS WELL! SO DO BRAINS, ALAN, TIN TIN, LADY PENELOPE, JEFF TRACY AND PARKER! It was supposed to be Thunderbirds' 60th anniversary this year, and because you replaced it with a lousy and boring Children's Film Foundation picture, all you will be hearing from the children watching is booing and hissing.

I expected better from you, and YOU, HAVE, FAILED ME!!!!!

THIS IS YOUR FAULT!

GOODBYE FOREVER!
Hate,
Sybil
