BRAINS’ LAB is where we take off the access panels and shine our flashlights on the internal wiring of Thunderbirds.

In the CANON FOUNDRY, we will explore the difference between canon and fanon, separating the facts that come from the series itself -- and its official offshoots, the annuals and comics -- from the inventions of fans writing fiction. Does Grandma have a real name? Did Jeff’s wife die in childbirth or in an avalanche when her children were grown? What are the Tracy boys’ middle names? Answers to those questions and many more will all be here.

In the Canon Foundry you will also find the DATE DEBATE, articles and evidence discussing one of the most enduring conundrums of Thunderbirds – was it set in 2026 or 2065?

How would the Thunderbirds really fly? How long would it really take them to go from place to place? Keep watching this space – all this and much more is coming soon to Brain’s Lab!
