Announcing the narrator of the Captain Scarlet Spectrum Files - David Graham!
The upcoming Captain Scarlet Spectrum Files will have one of the most iconic Gerry Anderson voices telling the tales of Spectrum…
Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons is fast approaching its 50th anniversary since its first broadcast on our TV screens.Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation series tells the tale of our eponymous hero,Captain Scarlet, as he and theSpectrum organization fight to save the Earth from the Mysterons from Mars.
The Spectrum Files, originally based on three tie-in novels released in 1967, are being released in September by Big Finish Productions, alongsidethe 50th Anniversary Limited Edition box set of Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. And to celebrate,Wayne Forester (voice of Captain Scarlet inGerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet) and Liz Morgan(the original voice of Destiny and Rhapsody angels) will be adding the magic vocal touches to these releases. But narrating these tales will beDavid Graham, the original voice of Gordon Tracy, Brains, Kyrano and Parker from Thunderbirds!
"We’ve been very lucky to work withDavid Graham on a few projects recently," says director and producerJamie Anderson, "includingTerrahawks - a series he wasn’t originally involved with, but fitted in perfectly with the Terrahawks cast. So I jumped at the chance to work with him again.

"For many David’s voice is synonymous with theGerry Anderson Supermarionation series, butThunderbirds was David’s final voice job working with Dad. It seemed only right that we finally give David a chance to lend his vocal talents toCaptain Scarlet and the Mysterons, and narrator ofthe Spectrum Files was the ideal job for him.
David’s narration, combined withLiz Morgan andWayne Forester’s fantastic character voices, makes for the perfect combination to bring these classicCaptain Scarlet and the Mysterons stories to life for the very first time, with an authentic sprinkling of Century 21 magic.”
