Anderson Entertainment are giving Terrahawks fans an early Christmas present with the free release of the Terrahawks Christmas episode – “A Christmas Miracle” – online via YouTube for 30 days from 10 December 2014.
The episode has been digitally cleaned and re-mastered and features two new specially created parody advertisements.
Terrahawks is Gerry Anderson and Christopher Burr’s 1980s series filmed in Supermacromation. Featuring the iconic zeroids as well as a range of fantastic vehicles (Treehawk, Battlehawk, Spacehawk), and incredible alien characters, the show has strong cult following.
Jamie Anderson, Managing Director of Anderson Entertainment and son of Gerry Anderson, MBE, says, “We wanted to bring some Yuletide cheer to Terrahawks fans around the world in advance of Big Finish’s April 2015 release of a brand new audio series featuring eight new episodes with three members of the original cast.
“We’re also releasing a free Christmas track with Big Finish – Zelda’s Night Before Christmas”.
The New Year will see further Terrahawks treats in store with the launch of ‘Zeroids vs Cubes’, a spin-off animated web series developed by Anderson Entertainment and IDO Design and Animation featuring the robots from the original series. The series is also trailed in the ad breaks of the free episode.
