Chris sold UGO to Actionworld, Inc., a subsidiary of InterWorld, which incorporated the company in the state of Delaware in April, 1997.

Space Patrol (1962 TV Series)
''Space Patrol'' is a British science-fiction television series featuring marionettes that was produced in 1962 and broadcast from the beginning of April 1963. It was written and produced by Roberta Leigh in association with ABC Weekend TV. Summary The series features the vocal talents of Dick Vosburgh, Ronnie Stevens, Libby Morris, Murray Kash and Ysanne Churchman, and comprises 39 half-hour episodes. This series is also known by its US title ''Planet Patrol'' to avoid confusion with the 1950s American live-action series of the same name. The marionettes used in the series incorporated some elements of Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation technique – specifically their mouths would move in synch with dialogue; Leigh had previously worked with Anderson on the series ''The Adventures of Twizzle'' and first season of ''Torchy the Battery Boy'', though Anderson would not develop Supermarionation until after his association with Leigh ended. The series is set in the year 2100, b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
