Hi Mr. Hoegee, I'm a really big fan of the Thunderbirds and am really excited for the new show. I was wondering, since the boys are younger in this retake, could you tell us what ages they will be, as well as the ages of Kayo, Lady Penelope, Brains and Parker.

Also, will there be an over arching plot to the show, or are you going to go for a more episodic approach? How much will continuity play into the series?

One more question that might be a little touchy, is did you take any concepts from the movie? We can all agree that the writing in the movie was horrible and didn't reflect the dignity of the original show at all, but there were a few concepts that could have been salvaged had they been written better and had more time to be explored. Did you take any of those concepts and weave them into the plot for the show?

How are you approaching the Hood's character?

Also, who came up with those horribly corny, but utterly adorable catchphrases!?

The show has both Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's blessing. They both were a large part in instigating and creating the new show. Gerry accidentally leaked the information in a interview a few years back. Mr. Hoegee would not have been hired to write had the people who were entrusted with the new series not thought he was perfectly capable of writing a show worthy of the original series.

You're killing me! But that makes sense, thank you for answering my questions. I'm planning on enjoying it! ^{_^} If it's as good as both Teen Titans and Generator Rex, then I'm certain that it'll be legendary!
