It's always a pleasure to watch an episode of a classic Gerry Anderson series with someone who was intimately involved in its making, so it was a special treat when the Randomiser - quite unexpectedly - chose an episode of The Protectors to watch with John Cameron.

John composed and arranged the incidental music for the series, and he shares a few thoughts and memories as we watch the episode, Lena , together!

Author James Swallow joined us this month to tell us all about the upcoming Thunderbirds anthology International Rescues, but he had a much more important job to do - Press the Randomiser button! Luckily, James is familiar with the Randomiser's choice, having been a fan of Space 1999 for many years, and even writing for Anderson Entertainment's novel range.

The Full Circle divides opinion among fans, but what will James make of it?
