More memorable quotes ( to me anyway).
In 'White as Snow' BLUE is temporarily left in command of Cloudbase and becomes a power-crazed dictator! The Angel's dismayed reaction to Blue's news that 'all off duty personnel will report to the sick bay where Doctor Fawn will give a lecture on the lower primates' is " A talk on MONKEYS? That's all we need"
'Lunarville 7 ' contains another classic in "Let them plot, Orson..they're trapped on Lunarville 7. We will deal with them.. at our leisure" (The Lunarville 7 boss does everything but rub his hands together and go 'mwa-ha-ha!'). IMHO the best piece of scenery-chewing puppet acting ever!

"White keeps telling Scarlet to lean in closer and then says "If we somehow make it out of this, get a haricut." and Captain Blue ask's Scarlet "well, what did he want" and Scarlet responds "He was just keeping me in line. He's a really great guy."
YES! That is my favorite line!!
Also like:
Captain Scarlet tied up and gagged Colonel White in the episode "White as Snow" and when Scarlet was killed defending White against a mysteron agent, one of the men aboard this submarine found Captain White.
Captain White: When we get back on Cloudbase, he'll be court marshalled!
Man: I dont think you seem to understand sir, this man is dead!
Captain White: THATS NO EXCUSE!
There were a lot of really cute jokes in the show I liked the humor.

It has to be the one where they have an outpost in the African plains disguised like a hunting lodge, and when one Spectrum officer enters through the front door, the one already sat in the front room says:
"Hello Tiger!"
which I think was his codename, but it made them sound like they were either a pair of wealthy gaddabouts still trawling for booty or a couple of old fruits!

Yes, it was filled with some suprising sexual references.
In one episode a military guy is standing by an open window at night when the guy he shares quarters with says "come back to bed". It is a really odd line since you'd expect a room mate to say "go to (your) bed" or "go to sleep will ya". Forget that fairly senior officers wouldn't share a room
Two odd things happen at the end of the episode where two female models become mysterons after being killed in the train crash (which made me feel queasy while watching it). At one point Destiny Angel turns suddenly to the male fashion designer and slowly leans in as if to kiss him, but the scene cuts away to something else. Soon after the fashion designer asks Scarlet (hopefully) if he is going to stay longer (now that the myseron threat is over). Scarlet hesitates and says errno he has to leave. I watched that scene over and over again and couldn't help but think it was a rejection of a gay pickup.
I wonder if the puppeteers were having some fun after a long workday.
Favourite line is in White as Snow when Col White orders the helicopter pilot to lower him into the middle of the ocean as a submarine surfaces.
The pilot, amazed, asks White if he is some big shot in the Navy.
White replies in his most clipped British accent, No, Im a deep sea fisherman.'
Must admit Col White is my favourite Anderson puppet character. -

Winged Assasin.
Blue: "That's suicide!"
Scarlet: "For you, yes. For mesee you later."
And a purely sleazy choice, when Destiny Child says "Car Vu"

I think it's because Colonel White, particularly in that episode, was supposed to be very much the commanding officer. He probably disapproved of using given names, may have thought it was bad for discipline or something, until it was clear that they were both done for and that stuff no longer mattered. That's what I think anyway.
