Stand by for musical action! Relive a wonderland of orchestral adventure with Stand By for Action! 2: Tunes of Danger, now available on DVD and Blu-ray from the Official Gerry Anderson store.

This stunning one-off concert from July 2024 brings the music of Gerry Anderson’s worlds and characters to life with a live orchestra performing many classic and lesser-known theme songs and soundtrack highlights from Thunderbirds, Space: 1999, Terrahawks, Captain Scarlet, Fireball XL5, and more.

Stand By for Action! 2: Tunes of Danger took place at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham last summer, and followed on from our previous concert, 2022’s Stand By for Action! Gerry Anderson in Concert. Tunes of Danger was hosted by Jon Culshaw and performed by the Hackenbacker Orchestra, who performed a fantastic array of music from across Gerry’s career, featuring the work of Barry Gray, Crispin Merrell, Derek Wadsworth, Richard Harvey, and John Cameron.

Stand By for Action! 2: Tunes of Danger also marked the beginning of our trans-media saga celebrating Stingray‘s 60th anniversary, Stingray: Deadly Uprising. Deadly Concerto features an all-star cast performing a brand new Stingray story live, and sets the stage for Titan unleashing his most devious masterplan yet to destroy Marineville – with the help of an alluring piece of music…

Order your copy of Stand By for Action! 2: Tunes of Danger on DVD or Blu-ray now from the Official Gerry Anderson store and immersive yourself in an evening of symphonic adventure! Don’t forget to also check out our retrospective of the concert and discover what a thrilling time was had by all!
