Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons volume 1 is available exclusively from Network’s website, and can be pre-ordered now for delivery in November.

Originally transmitted on 29th September 1967, Captain Scarlet is celebrating it’s 50th anniversary today! The Captain Scarlet Blu-ray is the icing on the cake for fans who have been enjoying many other fantastic anniversary releases including Big Finish Productions’ incredible range of Captain Scarlet releases – the 50th Anniversary box set, and the Spectrum Files audiobooks.
