Is there anyone else who liked this as much as me?...Now I don't pretend to remember each and every episode, but I always watched it back in th'day...I just wonder why this isn't talked about as much as some others which seem to hold the heart more...

Flaming Tunderbolts...Seargent Major...101...Moid...Sram...Oh ho-ho...Yes...

I remmeber terrahawks but don't really remmeber much about it, most memorable thing about it was the game of noughts and crosses(tic tac toe)at the end of each episode

Let's face it it was a quick cheap show and lacked the class of its bigger, older brothers.

I remember being quite scared and freaked out by the evil woman who controlled the cubes. She traumatised me about old people for years!

If my memory serves her name was Zelda and she scared the bejesus out of me as well

She reminded me of my Nan for some reason...

I thought Windsor Davies was class...I mean c'mon "Dicks Hewitt"...How is that not classy :-D ...

I thought the Air/Space Craft were a huge imrovement on the other series'...The advance of time and the Star Wars age I suppose...

I thought the Theme was cool...I must borrow my brother's DVDs :-) ...

Yep, me! I watched it when it was first broadcast, but like a lot of people I was a little disappointed as it wasn't quite as good as, say, Space:1999 or Scarlet. Having just bought the boxset and watched them all again, I'd definitely recommend it. It starts off a little straight laced but there's a good sense of humour running through the later episodes - this makes up for the smaller budget and 16mm film. Windsor Davies cracks me up!

We are going back a bit! I remmber the show as a child, but really only Sram lord of Mars sticks in my mind and his thunder roar. I sort of remmber that Ninestein was a clone and they had to replace him once as he got killed.

Is it out on DVD?

Wow, this takes me back! I remember watching Terrahawks on a Saturday lunchtime when I was small. I never used to miss an episode. Just did a quick search, and it seems it is out on dvd.

You should be able to get it fairly cheaply too.
