The Incorporated Television Company (ITC) produced some of the most groundbreaking and iconic television programs ever made. From gritty crime and espionages, exotic continental escapades, comedy misadventures, swashbucklers, charismatic philanthropists, outlandish alien adventure, life-saving SUPERMARIONATION heroics, to mind-boggling thrillers. 

It was Sir Lew Grade's incredible company that distributed many successful cult programs such as Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, Space: 1999, UFO, Stingray, Joe 90, The Prisoner, The Saint, The Persuaders, Danger Man, Gideon's Way, The Muppet Show. Julie On Sesame Street, The Champions, Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), The Baron, Man In A Suitcase, and many other cult series.

Here, Century 22 Productions delves into the legends of these productions and their massive revival of interest in the early 2000s. Thanks to Carlton (who to all intents and purposes were ITV), these cult classics were launched into the new millennium in a new digitally remastered format that we are privileged to enjoy today. Some of these items are now highly praised and sought-after by collectors today. 

Take a trip down memory lane, and venture into the range of Carlton Video and to some of the programs which are regarded as some of the greatest television series ever made. A CaptainThunderWho Century 22 Production.All Rights Reserved

The Worlds of SUPERMARIONATION: The Hatching Horror by CaptainThunderWho

Five mysterious alien pods are floating in formation across space - its origin is from Mars! A rough approximation of where the pods landed has been calculated. They are carefully tracked by space observatories all around the world. For situations encompassing security threats on a global scale, International Rescue, Spectrum, the WASPs, and the WSP are all on stand by to take to task the alien arrivals. One lands in Mediterranean waters, the second in the rural hills of Scotland, another in the deserts of Africa, a fourth outside a space commission, and the other has gone random... Even more strange happenings are going on. An alien signal transmitting through deep space sends Fireball XL5 to answer the message of warning. It is warned that the appallingly dangerous pods have been sent by the Mysterons to wipe out all life on Earth. The pods unleash deadly plants that become uncontrollable carnivores and begin growing into terrifying sizes. The strange entity that brought in XL5 calls upon the greatest Earth forces in our existence to help combat the nightmare... Soon, W.I.N, B.I.S.H.O.P, and the crew of the Supercar are brought forward in time to the 2060s as havoc spreads across the globe. With the growth of the plant monsters out of control, the services of our heroes stretched, and the germination of thousands more pods imminent, one of the pods has taken over one of the space centres with the aid of the Mysteronised operatives to complete its full colonisation of the Earth. Can the Tracy brothers, Captain Scarlet, Troy Tempest, Joe 90, Steve Zodiac, Mike Mercury, and even Father Unwin all combine to give the Earth a slim chance of hope against Earth's extinction? Based on the seven original classic SUPERMARIONATION series, created by the legendary Gerry Anderson. A CaptainThunderWho Century 22 Production.

Fireball XL5: The Incredible Space Adventure Of Fireball XL5 by CaptainThunderWho

By the 2060s, space travel had become an easy feat for man to explore the universe he lives in and understand more about it. The Earth's representative force for space travel is the World Space Patrol, an advanced complex based in the Pacific, which possesses a mighty fleet of rocket ships titled the Fireballs. The pride and glory of the space organisation's crafts is the Fireball XL5. With its renowned crew of space explorers, Fireball XL5 patrols Sector 25 of the galaxy to discover new, uncharted planets and life forms, as well as keeping peace from the vastly different alien races across the galaxy... Aboard the crew of the Fireball XL5, we have Colonel Steve Zodiac, the incredibly brave and handsome hero of the day. Dr. Venus, the ship's doctor of space medicine, secretly shares a love life with Zodiac. They are both joined by the genius Professor Matthew Matic, who although may seem a little eccentric, is a brilliant scientist and vital member of the crew. It was he who invented his highly advanced creation Robert the Robot. Occasionally, the crew is joined by Dr. Venus' pet Lazoon, who enjoys making chaos and causing havoc on the ship... Reporting to their superiors at Space City, the disgruntled Commander Zero and the youthful Lieutenant Ninety, Steve Zodiac and his friends are about to engage in their most important assignment in their careers. As such, the entire fabric of the universe hangs in balance when tensions between alien races stretch across the galaxy, creating dangerous political instability and an impending space war about to break out. In the toughest assignment for the crew of Fireball XL5, an impossible task must be completed to ensure the safety of all life forms in the universe is sworn to be protected...

My Life In Ruins by writeon27

Passport? Check. A book of maps of every country in the world? Check. Backpack and small suitcase that contains everything I possess? Check. The world best, international traveling, treasure hunting dad and the most awesome stepmom who is more like my best friend? Check. And new, totally gorgeous English intern of my father's who's tagging along on our next adventure? Double check. Call me, Callie Landon, nerdy and I'd have to totally agree. I mean, how could I not be nerdy when I graduated high school at thirteen and double majored in college and got my bachelor's in both history and international studies by sixteen? Again, just call me nerdy. But I loved my life of travel. I got to see the world with my dad and stepmom, searching for treasure that was thought to be lost for hundreds of years...until we found it, of course. And now we were going on an expedition to find one of the most sought after treasures: the hidden treasure of the infamous pirate Blackbeard. With the three of us, plus Max Knight, my dad's new intern, we were sure we would be able to find it with the help of some clues along the way. But then there are always those other people who just happen to think that they can find it before you and are willing to do anything to stop you. Oh, that's always fun. But then again, it's always fun in the world of treasure hunting. (Book 1 in the My Life Series)
