Since you bring up space 1999 let’s talk about costume design again. Hello Rudi Gernreich.

Purple wigs to die for, one sleeve a different colour (presumably to denote rank?) what's not to like?
I was overjoyed to find the entire Gerry Anderson canon available to stream on itvx so just had to go on a 3 week binge... It all went a bit pear shaped with terrahawks..

I rewatched Space 1999, and it is insane in places. I could remember some of the creatures from *koff*long ago*koff*.

It also featured Brian Blessed. Not once but twice!

..and Christopher Lee..

Actually, purple wigs are UFO, not 1999- paying the price for my Anderson binge.. I'll be having the mysterons making an appearance next.
But here's UFO

Look Peter Cushing is in Space 1999 with a literal cushion on his head. Nobody is going to fault you, and I bet there are other purple wigs anyway.

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear!
