  • A true gem of a podcast

    A lots of pods are doing this format but what lifts The Randomiser head and shoulders above the rest is the wit and talent of host, Chris Dale which take centre stage in this highly engaging and often laugh out loud watch-along of Gerry Anderson’s prolific output.

    From the openings where Chris and his trusty companion, Marina (yes the underwater mute lady from Stingray) persuade characters from the Anderson universe to select an episode by pressing the Randomiser’s infamous, “big red button” t... more

  • Never a dull moment with Chris Dale and his randomiser. The great thing about it is that he gives an honest and highly entertaining opinion on all things Anderson that have appeared on television. Because of Mr. Dale I was converted to The Secret Service, made aware of the cutest Anderson production to hit our screens, Lavender Castle and have a better appreciation of The Protectors. Keep up the great work, Chris!

  • An Entertaining Guided Tour of the Gerry Anderson Universe

    The Gerry Anderson Randomizer with Chris Dale is one of my favorite podcasts. Chris does a great job of creatively introducing each episode using choice clips from Anderson TV dialogue to interact with. I have the Supercar, Fireball XL5, Thunderbirds, Stingray, Joe 90, and Captain Scarlet series’ on DVD, but I don’t have Chris’s entertaining accompaniment, except on this podcast. As the randomly chosen episodes play, Chris offers observations, amusing comments, and critiques. If you’re a fan of ... more
