Nostalgia For Children's TV - Terrahawks

When I was younger a remember watching a Gerry Anderson series involving robots with heads that rolled off and end credits involving a game of noughts and crosses.

I'm not sure if this was something that was only broadcast in southern regions of the UK, as I can only remember watching it before we moved north and no one seemed to know what I was on about when I was at school in Cumbria.

Anyway, I was pleased to find the following in the local charity shop a couple of days ago:

Clips

The noughts and crosses finish (it was a different game for each episode, so it varied who won):




The start of an episode [including the rolling robot heads (Zeroids) about 9 mins in]
