Countdown in gif

At the beginning of every episode, the opening credits followed the same format: Jeff Tracy giving a "5-4-3-2-1" countdown followed by "Thunderbirds are go". Next we see a short episode teaser, with segments from the episode, separated by flashes of lighting. Then a walk-through of the main characters of the show, in a silhouette form, that turns into a picture. The final credits of "filmed in Videcolour and Supermarionation" are shown on a backdrop of a massive explosion at a oil refinery. The whole sequence takes less than two minutes.
