Nigel Plaskitt: Captain Black Speaks Out! | The Gerry Anderson Podcast

There are so many strings to Nigel Plaskitt's bow that it's difficult to know where to start! Puppeteer, producer, actor and voice actor, he's brought so many wonderful creations to the world, from Unstoffe in Doctor Who, The Ribos Operation to Pipkins' Hartley Hare and PG Tips' Monkey to several of the muppets! He's best known in the Anderverse for voicing Captain Black in the 2005 CGI remake of Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons - New Captain Scarlet!

This month, Nigel shares the many highlights of his illustrious career, from Muffin the Mule to reuniting with his Scarlet costars to record a very special audio adventure for the new BluRay... And even the Randomiser gets in on the game!

Playing Officer Orrin in Gerry Anderson's last live action series 'Space Precinct' clearly wasn't enough to put Richard off the worlds of Gerry Anderson!

As well as co-hosting the Gerry Anderson Podcast and the almost-monthly Facebook, Twitch, Periscope and Youtube broadcast, FabLive, Richard has also taken parts in the audio series 'Terrahawks' and the pilot minisode for the forthcoming 'Gerry Anderson's Firestorm'.
