Together with long-time collaborator Tony Barwick, Gerry wrote and shot the pilot story for Space Police. Once the pilot was complete it would take nearly 10 years to secure the funding to make the series which was eventually renamed Space Precinct. Now, for the first time, the original screenplay of this untransmitted pilot film is available for Gerry Anderson fans worldwide to enjoy!
