The Ultimate Space: 1999

September 13th, 1999…a nuclear waste dump on the Moon unexpectedly detonates, blasting it out of orbit and taking the inhabitants of Moonbase Alpha on a fantastic voyage of discovery to the stars, fraught with danger at every turn!

Gerry Anderson’s massively popular sci-fi series was a thill-of-the-pants ride that used the model-making skills honed on countless puppet-shows to produce a live-action adventure that looked like nothing we had seen before. Okay, so the premis was silly, and the plots often were too. But Anderson always knew how to keep an audience entertained and in the ‘70s Space 1999 was as good as TV science fiction got. 

Network’s new High Definition restoration is taken from original film elements, giving an exceptional level of picture quality. Reality is rarely as fresh and shiny as the afterglow of nostalgia, but honestly? Space: 1999 has never looked better.

The Ultimate Space: 1999 includes the complete first and second series plus all four TV movies, which were made by spicing together various episodes, with additional material filmed to pull the story-elements together.
