Synopsis:

Stingray (1968): 2065, Marineville. The World Aquanaut Security Patrol (WASP) fight against the evil Titan and the Aquaphibians, grotesque undersea warriors, in the quest for world peace. WASP´s most powerful asset is the sleek and deadly underwater craft STINGRAY, captained by intrepid Troy Tempest. Helping him are Phones, the brave radio expert, Commander Sam Shore, his daughter Atlanta and Marina, the voiceless, tailless Mermaid.

Captain Scarlet (1967): Captain Scarlet is the indestructible hero of spectrum at war with the mysteron. Even though they managed to kill him with a self-made weapon, the Mysterons rebuilt Scarlet as an invincible human replica to infiltrate Earth and lead their war against our planet. But Captain Scarlet's human psyche survived, took control of his human body, and now this indestructible hero leads the fight against the evil force.

Joe 90 (1964): Joe 90 is the world's most audacious secret agent and he's only 9 years old! Thanks to Ian 'Mac' McClaine's machine, the Brain Impulse Galvanoscope Record And Transfer (or BIG RAT), he is able to transfer the knowledge and experience of one person to Joe. BIG RAT becomes the World Intelligence Network's (W.I.N.) most guarded and secretive weapon in the organisation's missions. With the aid of a special pair of glasses, Joe can now assume the knowledge of any individual and become an expert in any field of endeavour...

Stingray (1968): Gerry Anderson's third SF supermarionation saga told the adventures of the WASPs (the World Aquanaut Security Patrol) as they explored the oceans and kept the world safe from a variety of perils.

Troy's copilot was Phones, and they were often joined on missions by Marina, a princess of the undersea kingdom of Pacifica. Marina could breathe under water, but was unable to speak. In charge of the WASPs was gruff Commander Shore, whose daughter Atlanta was both a member of his staff and Marina's rival for Troy's affection.

Captain Scarlet (1967): A literally unkillable agent leads an international intelligence agency's fight against an extra-terrestrial terror campaign.
