"Retro-metabolizm" deb ham ataladigan materiyaning teskari yo'nalishi Mysteronlarga odamlar va ob'ektlarni o'zlari boshqaradigan faksimile sifatida qayta tiklashga imkon beradi.^{[E 2]} Ushbu qobiliyat "asab urushi "Yerga qarshi, bu orqali Mysteronlar aniq maqsadlarga (dunyo rahbarlari va harbiy inshootlardan tortib shaharlarga va qit'alarga) tahdid soladi va keyin rejalarini amalga oshirish uchun zarur bo'lgan asboblarni (ular inson yoki ob'ekt bo'lsin) yo'q qilish va rekonstruktsiya qilish. Mysteronlarning mavjudligi qirg'in va qayta qurish sahnalarini kuzatib boradigan ikkita yashil nur doirasi bilan ko'rsatilgan.Misteronlar Marsdagi voqealarga ta'sir o'tkazishga qodir bo'lsalar ham, ularning Yerdagi harakatlari odatda takrorlangan vositachilar tomonidan amalga oshiriladi.

Zero-X missiya rahbari Kapitan Qora musofirlar uning ongini boshqarishni qo'lga kiritganda asosiy agentga aylanadi.^{[N 2][16][17]} Serial voqealaridan oldin, Blek butun dunyo bo'ylab xavfsizlik kuchlari Spectrum ofitseri bo'lib, Mysteron tahdidiga qarshi kurashish uchun o'z xodimlarini, transport vositalarini va boshqa resurslarini safarbar qilgan. Spectrum-ning eng yuqori darajadagi agentlari harbiy unvonlarga ega va rang kodlari bilan tanilgan va tashkilotning shtab-kvartirasida, Cloudbase-da joylashtirilgan havo-samolyot tashuvchisi Er yuzidan 40 000 fut (7,6 milya; 12 km) balandlikda joylashgan bo'lib, ular unga javob berishadi bosh qo'mondon, Polkovnik Oq.^{[N 3][E 3]} Cloudbase-ni Destiny (eskadronlar etakchisi), Harmony, Melody, Rapsodiya va Symphony kodlari bilan nomlangan beshta ayol uchuvchidan iborat eskadron boshqaradigan Angel Interceptor jangchilari himoya qilmoqda.

Endi Mysteron fitnalarini to'xtatish uchun o'z joniga qasd qilgan taktikani qo'llay olgan Skarlet jarohatlaridan qat'i nazar yana Mysteronlarga duch kelishini bilgan holda o'zini qayta-qayta qurbon qildi.

Seriya davomida Mysteron rekonstruktsiyalari elektr energiyasiga nisbatan juda zaif ekanligi va ularni chidamli rentgen nurlari yordamida aniqlash mumkinligi aniqlandi.^{[E 4]} Binobarin, Spectrum Mysteronga qarshi ikkita qurilmani ishlab chiqaradi: "Mysteron Gun" va "Mysteron Detector".^{[N 7][E 5]} Uch qism hikoya yoyi Oyda Mysteron bazasini topish, uni Spektrum bilan yo'q qilish va bazaning qutqarilgan quvvat manbasini sayyoralararo aloqa moslamasiga aylantirgandan so'ng, Spectrum-ning Mysterons bilan muzokaralar olib borish harakatlariga qaratilgan.^{[E 3][E 6][E 7]} Marsni o'rganish uchun muvaffaqiyatsiz urinish, bekor qilingan harbiy konferentsiyalar va yangi Yer kosmik flotining barpo etilishi "Spectrum" ning Mysteronlarga qarshi kurashishdagi yutuqlariga to'sqinlik qilmoqda va tashkilot kapitan Blekni ikki marta qo'lga kiritolmadi.^{[E 8][E 9][E 10][E 11][E 12][E 13]} Oldingi epizodda Mysterons Cloudbase-ni kosmik kemalar parki bilan yo'q qiladi, ammo bu urib tushirilgan Simfoniya Anxelining tushida ko'rilgan tush.^{[E 14]} Oxirgi qism a klip namoyishi bu Yer va Mars o'rtasidagi urush bilan bog'liq holda seriyani natijasiz tugatadi.^{[E 15]}

Ishlab chiqarish

Gerri Anderson, serial yaratuvchisi

Amerika teleradiokompaniyasini topish to'g'risida suhbatlashganda Momaqaldiroq qushlari 1966 yil iyul oyida tushib ketdi, seriyaning ikkinchi mavsumida ishlab chiqarish buyrug'iga binoan atigi oltita epizodni yakunlash bilan yakunlandi Lyov Greyd, Distributorda APF moliyalashtiruvchisi ITC.^[19] Yaratilganidan beri APF faoliyatini nazorat qilib kelgan Superkar 1960 yilda va ishlab chiqarish jarayonida kompaniyani sotib olishga o'tdi Fireball XL5, Gred Andersonlarning dasturlari Amerikaning serdaromad bozorida efirga uzatilishini juda xohlagan va yangi kontseptsiya ishtirokchilarni jalb qilish uchun ikkinchi mavsumga qaraganda ko'proq imkoniyat yaratgan deb hisoblagan. Momaqaldiroq qushlari.^[19]

Bekor qilish natijasida Gerri Anderson yangi g'oya bilan chiqishga majbur bo'ldi Supermarionatsiya seriyali. U bir vaqtlar qahramon kutilmaganda serialning yarmida o'ldirilib, uning o'rniga yangi bosh qahramon paydo bo'lishi mumkin bo'lgan jonli harakatdagi politsiya dramasini yaratish fikridan ilhomlangan edi.^[20] Endi bu g'oyani yangidan ko'rib chiqayotgan Anderson o'zining yangi seriyasining asosiy savdo nuqtasi har bir epizod oxirida o'ldirilgan va keyingi boshlanishiga qadar tiriltirilgan obraz bo'lishi mumkinligini tushundi. Buning imkoniyati haqidagi zamonaviy nazariyalar bilan birlashganda Marsdagi hayot g'oyasiga olib keldi sayyoralararo urush insoniyatni himoya qilishga chaqirilayotgan Yer va uning qo'shnisi va dunyo bo'ylab xavfsizlik tashkiloti o'rtasida.^[21] Keyinchalik o'ylanib, Anderson qaror qildi "Qizil "ushbu tashkilotning" buzilmas "agenti uchun noodatiy nom bo'lishi mumkin, ammo uning bu sohadagi sherigi bo'lishi mumkin"Moviy ". Shundan kelib chiqqan holda, Anderson barcha xodimlar rangli kod nomlariga ega bo'lishi kerak va tashkilot chaqirilishi kerak"Spektr ". Shuni ta'kidlash kerak oq nur tarkib topgan va bo'lishi mumkin ichiga singan, spektr ranglari, u Spectrum etakchisini tayinladi "Oq ".^[21][22]

Tez-tez eshitiladigan "biz bilgan hayot" iborasiga qiziqib qolgan Anderson o'zining begona yovuz odamlarini 1960-yillardagi televizor va kinoteatrlarning odatiy g'ariblaridan ajratib qo'yishni xohladi. Shuning uchun u "biz kabi hayot" asosidan ishlagan qilmang buni bil "^[21] va qildi Mysterons organik mavjudotlar poygasi emas, balki sezgir kompyuterlar jamoasi, garchi bu ketma-ketlikning o'zida aniq ko'rsatilmagan bo'lsa.^[16] Niyat asl Mysteron irqining boshqa galaktikadan kelganligi edi: uzoq o'tmishda Marsda o'z bazasini yaratib, ular asrlar o'tib, kompyuterlarini qoldirib, sayyoradan qochdilar.^[16]

Andersonning Ikkinchi Jahon urushi haqidagi xotiralari bir qator dizayn jihatlari uchun ilhom baxsh etdi. Masalan, u buni esladi Britaniya jangi, RAF uchuvchilar nemis hujumlariga qarshi turishga qiynalishgan edi, chunki erdan ko'tarilish dushmanni ushlab qolish uchun ancha vaqt talab qilganligini anglatadi.^[24] Shuning uchun u Spectrum-ning bosh qarorgohini yaratdi. "Cloudbase ", an havo-samolyot tashuvchisi.^[24] Mysteron uzuklari reklamadan ilhomlangan Okso tovarlar va ayol tanasi ustidan siljigan tovar belgisi bo'lgan mahsulotlar.^[22][24]

Dastlab, kapitan Skarletning Mysteron nusxasi tabiiy ravishda jonlanish o'rniga rivojlangan kompyuter yordamida tiriltiriladi va bundan keyin u endi chinakam inson bo'lib qolmaydi, balki unga o'xshash "mexanik odam" bo'ladi. android.^[25] Keyinchalik, yana bir maqsad, taniqli aktyor tomonidan aytilgan mehmon yulduzi qo'g'irchog'ini namoyish qilish har bir qism uchun edi. Binobarin, birinchi epizodda paydo bo'ladigan Jahon Prezidentining xarakterini dastlab aytmoqchi bo'lgan Patrik Makgoxan.^[27][28]

Anderson asosan xizmat qilmoqda ijrochi ishlab chiqaruvchi, yozuv yozuvining aksariyati etkazib berildi Toni Barvik, ilgari yozgan Momaqaldiroq qushlari.^[29] Dastlab Kapitan Skarlet"s skript muharriri, Barvik 32 ta epizodning 18-qismini o'zi yozgan, shuningdek, boshqa yozuvchilarning ishlariga tez-tez o'zgartirishlar kiritgan.^[29] 1986 yilgi intervyusida ssenariy muallifligiga bo'lgan munosabatini muhokama qilib, Barvik taxmin va belgilarni taqqosladi Kapitan Skarlet ularga Momaqaldiroq qushlari - masalan, Spectrum-ni International Rescue va ning xarakteriga o'xshatish Kapitan Qora ga Kaput, avvalgi seriyadagi takrorlanuvchi yovuz odam.^[29]

Shu maqsadda Alan Perri va Ken Tyorner kamera operatori va badiiy bo'limlardan targ'ib qilingan.^[33] Boshqa yangi direktorlar APF tashqarisidan chaqirilgan; bular Piter Anderson, Leo Eton va Robert Lin, ularning oxirgisi 1958 yilda direktor yordamchisi bo'lgan Hammer filmlar Drakula va Frankenshteynning qasosi.^[33]

Serial 1967 yil sentyabr oyida namoyish etila boshlagach, asosiy fotosurat dastlabki 20 qismda yakunlangan edi.^[39] Har bir epizod uchun qo'g'irchoq kadrlar odatda ikki hafta yoki 11 ish kuni davomida suratga olingan.^[31][32][40] Dastlab otishni o'rganish sakkiz oy davom etishi kerak edi, ammo oxir-oqibat talablar tufayli oktyabr oyining oxiriga to'g'ri keldi Thunderbird 6 otish.^[31] Keyingi Supermarionation seriyasida ishlab chiqarilgan bo'lsa-da, Djo 90, Noyabr oyida boshlangan, ning so'nggi qismlari Kapitan Skarlet 1968 yil boshigacha tugatilmagan.^[39][41]

Supermarionation, bu usul qo'g'irchoqlar og'zining harakatlari elektron shaklda bo'lgan sinxronlashtirildi oldindan yozib olingan dialog bilan, birinchi marta ishlab chiqarish paytida ishlatilgan To'rt patlar sharsharasi 1960 yilda .gacha bo'lgan barcha seriyalarda Kapitan Skarlet, qo'g'irchoqning boshi tanasining qolgan qismiga nisbatan nomutanosib darajada katta bo'lgan, chunki boshida shunday bo'lgan elektromagnit lablarni sinxronlashtirish mexanizmining asosiy elementini tashkil etgan. Badanni boshga mos ravishda kattalashtirish mumkin emas edi, chunki bu qo'g'irchoqlarning ishlashini qiyinlashtirar edi^[55] va barcha qo'g'irchoqlar to'plamlarini kattalashtirishni talab qildi.^[9] Gerri Anderson bundan norozi edi karikaturali qarash va qo'g'irchoqlarning dizayni inson fiziologiyasini yanada aniqroq aks ettirishini xohladi.^[9] Shunday qilib, oldin Kapitan Skarlet ishlab chiqarishga kiritilgan, Reg tepasi va John Read^[52] haqiqiy o'lchamdagi boshlarga imkon berish uchun ko'kragiga solenoid o'rnatilgan yangi qo'g'irchoq turini yaratdi.^{[36][31][55][56]} Kostyum ustasi Kapitan Skarlet edi Silviya Anderson, frantsuz modelyerining ishidan ilhom olgan Per Kardin (xususan, uning 1966 yildagi "Kosmonavt" to'plami) Spectrum formasini loyihalashda.^[57]

Haykalda bo'lgandan keyin Plastilin, qo'g'irchoq boshlari a-ga kalıplanmıştı silikon kauchuk tayanch va tugagan shisha tola. 20 dan 24 dyuymgacha (510 dan 610 mm gacha) balandliklarda (taxminan uchdan birining hayot hajmi) keyingi avlod qo'g'irchoqlari oldingilaridan qisqaroq emas edi.^[58] Avvalgi seriyalarda qo'g'irchoqlarning ko'zlari nomutanosib ravishda katta edi; uchun Kapitan Skarlet, ular qo'g'irchoqlarning ko'z qovoqlariga haqiqiy inson ko'zlarining izlarini mahkamlab, ishlab chiqarish xodimlarining ko'zlari fotosuratlaridan kichraytirib, yanada aniqroq qilishdi.^[24][36][59] Avvalgi kabi, asosiy belgilarga bir qator iboralarni ko'rsatadigan bir-birining o'rnini bosadigan boshlar berildi; bular orasida "jilmayuvchi", "qashshoq" va "miltillagan" boshlar bor edi.^[58] Epizodlari sifatida Kapitan Skarlet alohida sahnalarda juft-juft qilib suratga olinishi kerak edi, "ifoda etishmaydigan" boshlar ikki nusxada qilingan.^[60]

Ortdi realizm qo'g'irchoqlar ularning harakatchanligi sezilarli darajada kamayganligini anglatardi.^[36] Bu g'alati tarzda dizaynni Anderson kutganidan kamroq jonli qildi: "To'satdan, barcha harakatlar qo'g'irchoqlar singari realistik bo'lishi kerak edi va bu qo'g'irchoqlar uchun ularni jonlantirishni qiyinlashtirdi".^[52] Kerakli harakat miqdorini minimallashtirish uchun qo'g'irchoqlar harakatlanuvchi yo'lakchalarda turish yoki harakatlanuvchi stollarda o'tirishga majbur qilingan: masalan, polkovnik Uayt stoli aylana oladi va Leytenant Yashil Cloudbase kompyuterini toymasin stuldan ishlaydi. Qo'g'irchoq Jan King quyidagicha fikr bildirdi:

The Kapitan Skarlet qo'g'irchoqlar yurish uchun qurilmagan. Ular juda og'ir edi va baribir og'irligi yo'q edi ... Bu juda karikatura qilingan qo'g'irchoq bo'lmasa, torli qo'g'irchoqni plyonkada ishonchli yurishi uchun deyarli imkonsizdir. Yilda Kapitan Skarlet, agar qo'g'irchoq ekrandan tashqarida harakatlanishi kerak bo'lsa, u a elkama-elka otish - qavatdagi qo'g'irchoq qo'g'irchoqning oyoqlarini ushlab turar, so'ngra qo'g'irchoqni kerakli vaqtda o'qdan jismonan tashqariga chiqarib, qo'g'irchoq yurayotgandek tanasi va yelkalarini harakatga keltirishga harakat qilar edi.^[53]

King tomonidan tasvirlangan "qo'mondonlikdagi" qo'g'irchoqlar simlari bo'lmagan va ularni belidan boshqargan. Ushbu usulning bir afzalligi shundaki, qo'g'irchoq otishni o'rganish uchun tanaffus talab qilmasdan eshik eshigidan o'tishi mumkin edi. Samolyot kokpitlarida o'tirgan belgilar uchun faqat "bosh ostida" tanani o'z ichiga olgan "nazorat ostida" dizayni o'zgargan; ular to'plam ostida joylashgan ushlagichlar va simlar yordamida ishlatilgan.^[36]

Gacha Kapitan Skarlet, har bir yangi epizod uchun yordamchi belgilar loydan ishlangan edi. Mehmonlar Kapitan Skarletammo, asosiy qahramonlar bilan bir xil ishlash me'yorlariga muvofiq tayyorlangan 50 dan ortiq qo'g'irchoqlardan iborat doimiy "repertuar kompaniya" tomonidan to'ldirilgan.^[55][58] "Qo'g'irchoqlar qo'g'irchoqlari" yoki oddiygina "yangilanishlar" deb nomlangan bu qo'g'irchoqlar epizodlar bo'yicha paydo bo'ldi, soch turmagi va soch ranglarini o'zgartirib, har bir yangi rol uchun o'zgartirildi.^[36][55][58] Ikkala asosiy xarakter va yangilangan qo'g'irchoqlar Kapitan Skarlet so'nggi ikkita Supermarionation seriyasida paydo bo'ldi, Djo 90 va Yashirin xizmat.^[55]

Belgilar va ovozli kasting

Kapitan Skarlet Supermarionation prodyuserlarining eng katta doimiy qo'g'irchoq aktyorlariga ega edi.^[68] Avvalgi seriyalar futuristik texnologiyalarga bag'ishlangan bo'lsa-da Kapitan Skarlet diqqat belgilarga o'tdi.^[68] Qayta ishlab chiqilgan qo'g'irchoqlar singari, ovozli qismlar kamroq karikatura va haqiqatga aylandi.^[69] Simon Archer va Markus Xirnlarning ta'kidlashicha, o'tish davrida inglizcha aksentli ovozlarning ko'payishi Momaqaldiroq qushlari ga Kapitan Skarlet Supermarionatsiya ovozini va uning tomoshabindagi taassurotini o'zgartirdi.^[54]

Frensis Metyus Kapitan Skarletning ovozini bergan, ovozli belgilarga takliflarni rad etgan Momaqaldiroq qushlari.^[70] Metyusning so'zlariga ko'ra, Gerri Anderson uni taqlid qilishdan hayratga tushgani uchun uni tashlab ketish uchun juda ko'p harakatlarni amalga oshirgan Kari Grant Metyus bir paytlar radio dasturida ishlatgan va haqiqatan ham aktyor Skarletning ohanglarini Grantnikiga asoslagan O'rta Atlantika aksenti.^[70][71][72] Ammo Anderson o'zining tarjimai holida Grant taassurotini Metyusning tanlovda tanlaganini va bu ovoz Scarlet uchun mo'ljallanmagan bo'lsa-da, uni ishlatishdan mamnunligini aytdi.^[31][73]

Metyusning filmdagi sherigi Drakula: Zulmat shahzodasi (1966) bo'lgan Charlz Tingvell, Cloudbase tibbiyot xodimi doktor Fonning ovozi bilan tanlangan. Ikkinchi seriya uchun ovozlarni taqdim etgan Tingvell Momaqaldiroq qushlari shuningdek, badiiy film bilan bir qatorda Momaqaldiroq qushlari bor, avstraliyalik avstraliyalik tomonidan tavsiya etilgan Rey Barret, doimiy ovozli rassom Stingray va Momaqaldiroq qushlari.^[74] Sahna majburiyatlari tufayli Tingvell dastlabki 12 ta qism tugagandan so'ng prodyuserlikni tark etdi.^[74] Shu bilan birga ketish edi Pol Maksvell, kapitan Greyning ovozi (va ilgari Stiv Zodiak ham Fireball XL5 va kapitan Pol Travers Momaqaldiroq qushlari bor) rolini o'ynash uchun ketma-ketlikni tark etgan Stiv Tanner yilda Koronatsiya ko'chasi.^[74] Tingvel va Maksvellning ketishi tufayli qolgan qismlar uchun Fon va Grey faqat gaplashmaydigan darajada namoyon bo'lishdi, ammo Tingvel va Maksvell tomonidan aytilgan mehmonlar vaqti-vaqti bilan orqaga qaytish oldingi qismlarga.

Cy Grant, roli uchun tanlangan Leytenant Yashil^{[N 10]} (Polkovnik Uaytning yordamchisi va Cloudbase kompyuter operatori), Andersonga topikal qo'shiq aytishi bilan tanilgan kalypsos dolzarb ishlar dasturi to'g'risida Bugun kechqurun.^[75] Grantning kastingi bunga ta'sir ko'rsatdi Ed Bishop Kapitan Blyu singari, Bishop 1995 yilgi intervyusida eslaganidek: "To'pda mening agentimning ofisida bir qiz tasodifan paydo bo'ldi. U bu qora tanli aktyorni Sy Grant nomi bilan namoyish etdi va Gerri va Silviya undan foydalanmoqchi edi. .. Va qiz dedi: "Oh, aytmoqchi, janob Anderson, biz yangi, yosh amerikalik aktyorni tanladik" - bu sizga qancha vaqt oldin bo'lganligini ko'rsatadi - bu yangi amerikalik aktyor, Edvard Bishopning ismi. Sizga amerikalik ovozlar qanchalik yoqishini bilamiz, u bilan ham uchrashishni xohlaysizmi? " U: "Yaxshi, uni chiqarib yuboring", dedi. Shunday qilib, men chiqib, tanlovdan o'tdim va ishga joylashdim. "^[76][77]

Donald Gray o'zini topgan typecast detektivlar seriyasida bosh rolni bajargandan so'ng Londonning saberi, aktyorlik faoliyatini davom ettirish uchun ovozli ishlarga murojaat qilishi kerak edi.^[78] U uchta muntazam rol uchun tanlangan: polkovnik Oq, kapitan Blek va Mysterons. (Qora ni Mysterons egallab olgandan keyin birinchi qism, u musofirlarning ovozi bilan gapiradi). Greyning Qora va Mysteronlar obrazlarida uning satrlarini yuqori tezlikda yozib, so'ngra ularni normal tezlikda ijro etib, dahshatli effekt yaratish orqali uning ovozi elektron tarzda chuqurlashdi.

Kapitan Ocherning ovozi ta'minlandi Jeremi Uilkin, kim ovoz berdi Virjil Treysi yilda Momaqaldiroq qushlari Ikkinchi seriya. Ayni paytda kapitan Magenta tomonidan aytilgan Gari Fayllar, Century 21-ga nisbatan yangi kelgan, ikkinchisiga mehmonlar ovozini etkazib bergan Momaqaldiroq qushlari film, Thunderbird 6.^[79] Liz Morgan shuningdek, Anderson prodyuserlari uchun yangi bo'lgan va "Angel Angel" eskadrilyasi etakchisi Destiny Angel va uning bo'ysunuvchilaridan biri "Rhapsody Angel" ning ovozini aytdi. Silviya Anderson, ovozi Lady Penelope yilda Momaqaldiroq, Melodiya Anxel rolini ijro etdi, Kanadalik aktrisa Janna Xill esa Simfoniyani yangradi. Dastlab uyg'unlikni Morgan epizod qildi, u beshta epizodda qahramon chizig'ini taqdim etdi. About a third of the way through the dialogue-recording sessions, the role was transferred to Chinese actress Lian-Shin, who voiced Harmony in only one episode ("The Launching ") but received cast billing in 20.^[80][81][82]

Supporting character voices were performed by Anderson, Files, Hill, Maxwell, Morgan, Tingwell and Wilkin. Completing the credited cast were Devid Xili va Martin King. Sheyn Rimmer, previously heard as Scott Tracy yilda Momaqaldiroq qushlari, made a number of uncredited vocal contributions besides writing for the series. Nil Makkalum voiced guest characters in four episodes but was also uncredited.

Keyin Kapitan Skarlet, six members of the voice cast would continue their association with Century 21. Healy voiced Shane Weston in Djo 90 and Files voiced Matthew Harding in Yashirin xizmat. Wilkin, Morgan and King all had various supporting roles in these two series. Bishop later appeared in the lead role of Commander Ed Straker in NUJ, the Andersons' first live-action series.

Muloqot yozuvi

Character dialogue was recorded once a fortnight, at up to four episodes a session, at the Anvil filmlarini yozib olish studiyasi in Denham, Buckinghamshire.^{[39][83][L 3]} All actors were paid 15 guineas (£15 15 shillings) per episode (equivalent to £288 in 2019), plus repeat fees, regardless of the size of their contributions.^[84] They were not given the opportunity to tour the Century 21 studios in Yalang'och until their work was finished and therefore had no visualisation of their characters during the recording sessions.^[70] This was to the regret of Morgan: "We all said that we wished we had seen the puppets before doing the dialogue, as it would have been helpful to have something physical to base the voices on. I knew that Destiny was French and that Rhapsody had to be frightfully 'Sloaney,' but that was about it."^[81]

Title sequences and end credits

The Spectrum logo appears at both the start and the end of each episode's advertisement break.

Hammasi Kapitan Skarlet episodes, with the exception of the first, have two sarlavha ketma-ketliklari. The first of these, incorporating the sarlavha kartasi and main production credits, is set in a run-down alleyway and presented from the point of view of an unseen assassin, who turns a corner only to meet his death at the gun barrel of Captain Scarlet. The seven-letter words "Captain Scarlet" gradually appear in time with the seven strikes of the series' signature drum beat composed by Barry Gray. This sequence is intended to demonstrate Scarlet's indestructibility, the bullets from the assassin's machine gun having no effect on the captain.^[85] It is accompanied by a ovoz chiqarib dan Ed Bishop bu quyidagilar:

"The Mysterons – sworn enemies of Earth. Possessing the ability to recreate an exact likeness of an object or person. But first, they must destroy ... Leading the fight, one man fate has made indestructible. His name: Captain Scarlet."

A number of variations have been used. In the first episode, Bishop's voice-over runs:^{[E 1]}

"The finger is on the trigger. About to unleash a force with terrible powers, beyond the comprehension of man. This force we shall know as the Mysterons. This man will be our hero, for fate will make him indestructible. His name: Captain Scarlet."

A rarely used alternative version runs:^[86]

"One man. A man who is different. Chosen by fate. Caught up in Earth's unwanted conflict with the Mysterons. Determined. Courageous. Indestructible. His name: Captain Scarlet."

Later prints feature an additional voice-over by Donald Gray that warns the audience:^[86][87]

"Captain Scarlet is indestructible. You are not. Remember this. Do not try to imitate him."

This served both to establish the background to the series and warn younger viewers not to endanger themselves by copying Scarlet's actions.^[86][88] It was used either in isolation or after the alternative "One man ..." voice-over from Bishop.^[86]

Bilan boshlanadi ikkinchi qism, the primary title sequence leads into a teaser that is in turn followed by a secondary title sequence: as the Mysterons announce their latest threat against Earth, the "Mysteron eyes" pass over the main characters in various environments to demonstrate the aliens' omnipresence.^[85] At the same time, the characters' codenames appear on-screen. The Mysterons invariably begin their threat with the words, "This is the voice of the Mysterons. We know that you can hear us, Yer odamlari."

The yakuniy kreditlar were originally intended to feature images of bosilgan elektron platalar and other electronic components to reflect the Andersons' early conception of Scarlet as a "mechanical man."^[25] In the finished sequence, the credits are superimposed over a series of paintings that depict Scarlet in various moments of peril. In earlier episodes, these are accompanied by the instrumental version of the Kapitan Skarlet theme music; closing credits of later episodes feature a lyrical version sung by The Spectrum. The paintings were created by comic artist Ron Embleton, who would later illustrate the adult comic strips Oh, yovuz Wanda! va Sweet Chastity uchun Penthouse Jurnal.^[89][90] In 2005, the Animation Art Gallery in London released limited-edition prints of the paintings signed by Francis Matthews.^[90][91]

In Japan, the original opening titles were replaced with a montage of action clips taken from various episodes, accompanied by a song performed by children. This version is included in the special features of the Kapitan Skarlet DVD qutisi o'rnatilgan.^[92][93]

Eshittirishlar

Kapitan Skarlet had its official UK premiere on 29 September 1967 on ATV Midlands. Birinchi qism "The Mysterons ", was seen by an estimated 450,000 viewers, a number considered promising.^[5] Exactly five months prior, this episode had been shown in the London area as a late-night test transmission.^[5]

The series debuted in the London and Scotland regions on 1 October, with Granada, Angliya, Janubiy, Westward va Kanal Television all following later that month.^[5][94] By the start of the 1968, the series was being broadcast in all parts of the UK.^[5] Viewing figures in the Midlands averaged 1.1 million.^[5] Kapitan Skarlet was also shown in more than 40 other countries, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.^[95] In the United States, it aired in birinchi ishlaydigan sindikat.^[8][96] Only six episodes were shown in the Netherlands.^[97]

Buyuk Britaniya repeat runs varied among regions. Granada, HTV va Tyne Tees continued to air the series into 1972, while the Midlands repeated it four times in colour between 1969 and 1974.^[98] In other areas, like Yorkshire, it was not repeated at all.^[95] 1980-yillarning o'rtalarida ITV network broadcast the series on Saturday mornings as well as in segmented form as part of Tungi tarmoq.^[95][99]

Kapitan Skarlet was subsequently purchased by the BBC, which launched the series' first nationwide tarmoq run on BBC2 1993 yil oktyabrda.^[100] The BBC2 premiere of "The Mysterons" drew an audience of four million, the channel's third-largest audience of the week.^[100]

BBC Two repeated the series in digitally-qayta tiklandi form in the autumn of 2001.^[101] Keyin 11 sentyabr hujumlari, the episode order was re-arranged: the second episode, "Winged Assassin " (in which the Mysterons destroy an airliner and re-create it as a weapon), and the third, "Big Ben Strikes Again " (in which London is threatened by a hi-jacked nuclear device), were postponed due to perceived similarities between the storylines and real-world events.^[55][102] The episodes were subsequently broadcast in November and December 2001 and again in July 2003. In the week after the attacks, distributor Carlton Communications briefly took down the Kapitan Skarlet pages on its website.^[102]

Qabul qilish

Garchi Momaqaldiroq qushlari had run for two series, Lyov Greyd 's unexpected cancellation of that production had led Gerry Anderson to assume that there was no possibility of Kapitan Skarlet lasting more than one.^[104] In Anderson's words: "I didn't expect it to continue. I simply went to Lew and asked, 'What's the next thing you want us to do?'"^[105]

Kapitan Skarlet is generally viewed as being much "darker" in tone compared to earlier Anderson series, as Endryu Billen noted in Yangi shtat arbobi in 2005: "Whereas Momaqaldiroq qushlari was about rescuing people, Qizil was about damnation, the soul of a resurrected man being fought for between Kapitan Skarlet and the equally indestructible Captain Black. It was Anderson's Gotik davr. "^[7][31][106] The horror of the Mysterons has also been recognised: in 2003, the depiction of the aliens ranked 82nd in 4-kanal 's list show 100 eng dahshatli lahza.^[107] Simon Wickes of the website TV Century 21 argues that the series' sober writing is ultimately due to the realism of the new, accurately-proportioned puppets, and that this aesthetic change also accounts for the increased realism of the scale-model effects.^[36]

Commentators have drawn parallels between Kapitan Skarlet va Sovuq urush.^[108] Media tarixchisi Nikolas J. Kull interprets the "war of nerves" between Earth and Mars as a reflection of strained international relations during the 1960s and likens the "enemy within" scenario of Martians taking over humans to the plots of films like Badanni tortib oluvchilarning bosqini (1956).^[88] Mark Bould states that Kapitan Skarlet "seemed in tune with a decade of civil disobedience and antiimperialistik guerrilla wars"^[7] – a view echoed by Rebecca Feasey of the Edinburg universiteti, who writes that it is one of a number of TV series that "exploited the fears of 1960s America by presenting civil disobedience and the potentially negative impact of new technologies."^[109] Since 2001, comparisons have also been made to the 11 sentyabr hujumlari va undan keyin Terrorizmga qarshi urush.^[55][102]

Boshqalarga, Kapitan Skarlet remains a "lager klassik ".^[110][111] According to Bould, it is one of several Anderson productions that depict "a utopik future benefiting from world government, high technology, ethnic diversity, and a generally positive sense of Americanisation. They articulate the commonly made connection between technological developments and economic prosperity."^[13] He also writes that Kapitan Skarlet espouses "Euro-cool iste'molchilik ".^[7] World government is a recurring concept in Supermarionation series and was inspired by Gerry Anderson's thoughts on the subject at the time: "I had all sorts of fancy ideas about the future ... we had the Birlashgan Millatlar and I imagined that the world would come together and there would be a world government."^[112] On the depiction of technology, Peter Wright notes the "qualified texnofiliya " that Kapitan Skarlet bilan aktsiyalar Momaqaldiroq qushlari.^[113]

The series has drawn criticism for its camerawork, which some commentators regard as being too static due to the crew's inability to move the puppets convincingly.^[36][114] The return to 25-minute episodes, coming after Momaqaldiroq qushlari' 50-minute format, has been blamed for a perceived lack of subplots and drop in the overall quality of the storytelling.^[12][114] Concerns have also been raised about the series' approach to character development: in a 1986 interview, script editor Tony Barwick tasvirlangan Kapitan Skarlet as "hard-nosed stuff" that lacked humour, adding: "It was all for the American market and to that extent there was no deep characterisation. [The characters] all balanced one against the other."^[29] Aksincha, Jeff Evans, muallifi The Penguin TV Companion, describes the characters as "more detailed" than before, noting that they "were given private lives and real identities, and were furnished with other biographical data."^[115]

Yozuvchi Jon Peel qarashlar Kapitan Skarlet sifatida pastroq Momaqaldiroq qushlari, arguing that while Century 21's special effects had improved it was to the detriment of the scriptwriting. He compares this to the relative failure of the film Indiana Jons va Qiyomat ibodatxonasi following the success of its precursor, Yo'qotilgan Arkning bosqinchilari: "Anderson made the same mistake that Jorj Lukas made, assuming that if the effects were praised in Momaqaldiroq qushlari, the public wanted a show with more effects."^[117] Peel also finds fault with the character of Scarlet himself, arguing that the use of an "indestructible" hero made the episode endings too predictable.^[12] He also suggests that Scarlet, who often risks his safety to foil Mysteron plots, served as a poor role model to impressionable child viewers.^[12]

A deb qaraladi kult series by some, Kapitan Skarlet came 33rd in a 2007 Radio Times poll to find the greatest science-fiction series of all time.^[118][119] Despite concerns that it is not a true children's programme due to its "dark" tone and level of violence, it was ranked 51st in Channel 4's 2001 list show Bolalar uchun 100 ta eng zo'r teleshoular.^{[86][120][121]} Taqqoslash Kapitan Skarlet to its immediate precursor, Gerry Anderson's verdict was clear: "Nothing was as successful as Momaqaldiroq qushlari. Kapitan Skarlet va Mysterons was very successful, but once you've had a smash hit, everything tends to look less successful in comparison."^[122]

Qo'g'irchoqlar

Yoqilgan Sylvia Anderson 's costume design, Bould writes positively of Century 21's "commitment to fashion" and directs particular praise at the design of the Angel uniforms.^[14] The new puppet design has been praised by Vincent Terrace and criticised by others.^[8] Certain members of the production staff believed that the new marionettes lacked the charm of the previous generation due to the natural body proportions that were now being used.^[20] Epizod rejissyori Devid Leyn recalls that when he first saw the prototype, "it was as if there was a little dead person in [the box] ... because it was perfect in all its proportions it just looked odd."^[20] Sculptor John Brown remembers putting the prototype next to the Lady Penelope qo'g'irchoq Momaqaldiroq qushlari and gauging his colleagues' response: "When they saw it, some people were horrified by the difference. Some didn't like it, some did."^[9][24] Some have argued that facial expression was sacrificed in favour of a realistic design.^[120] Sculptor Terry Curtis recalls:

The changes of expression on those puppets had to be perfect and in no way exaggerated like the old ones were. I remember when [fellow puppet designer] Tim Cooksey did Colonel White, he had a lot of trouble doing different expressions as the face was just so realistic. I had a similar problem with Captain Blue. I remember I did a Blue "smiler" head and people could hardly tell the difference between that and the normal one.^[53]

Fellow sculptor John Blundall called the new puppet design "ridiculous", criticising the attempts to make the puppets appear more lifelike because "we always try to do with puppets what you can't do with humans."^[24][123] He suggested that the transition from caricature to realism was at the expense of the marionettes' "character and personality", arguing that "if the puppet appears completely natural, the audience no longer has to use its imagination."^[123] Gerry Anderson stated that he pushed for a new design to satisfy the audience, viewing it not as "a case of moving to a new technique, but more a case of incorporating new ideas with existing methods."^[123] Evans praises the new puppets, describing them as "perfect in proportion" and commending the re-location of the electronic circuitry from the heads to the bodies.^[115]

Comparing it to Momaqaldiroq qushlari, Peel sums up Kapitan Skarlet as "better puppets, bigger action and a huge step backwards in stories".^[10] He supports the new puppet design, contending that the increased realism would not have put off an audience familiar with the earlier design.^[117]

Race, gender and symbolism

During its 1993 BBC re-run, Kapitan Skarlet became the subject of a debate about black-and-white dualism for its use of the codenames "Black" for the villainous Captain Black and "White" for the benevolent head of Spectrum, Colonel White.^[100][125] Defending the series against claims of racism and political incorrectness, Gerry Anderson pointed out that the heroic characters include Lieutenant Green, Melody Angel and Harmony Angel, all of whom are of African or Asian background.^[100] Green is the only male black character to have a significant role in any of the Anderson series.^[126]

In academic publications, the diversity of the characters in terms of both race and gender has been viewed highly.^[15] Bould praises the "beautiful, multi-ethnic, female Angel fighter pilots" and "secondary roles played by capable women."^[14] In a 2003 interview, Anderson noted the effort made to feature ethnic minorities: "... I think people who make television programmes have a responsibility, particularly when children are watching avidly and you know their minds can be affected almost irreversibly as they grow up. We were very conscious of introducing different ethnic backgrounds."^[127]
