Shane Rimmer - My Autobiography: From Thunderbirds
To Pterodactyls
Shane Rimmer's voice is familiar to millions
from his role as Scott Tracy, the pilot of Thunderbird
1, but there are many other facets to his remarkable career.
In From Thunderbirds to Pterodactyls Shane recalls the
years he spent as an actor, voice artist and writer for
Gerry Anderson's classic productions, as well as appearances
in other memorable shows such as Doctor Who, Coronation
Street and Lipstick On Your Collar.
Equally at home in Star Wars or Out of Africa, Shane's
talents as a character actor have been called upon by some
of the film industry's leading directors, from Stanley
Kubrick in Dr Strangelove to Christopher Nolan in Batman
Begins.
Between the two he appeared in three
James Bond movies and had a close encounter with a low-flying
dinosaur
in The People That Time Forgot.
This wry and refreshingly frank autobiography sheds new
light on some of the best-loved films and television ever
made.
