- Attack_of_the_Alligators! abstract ""Attack of the Alligators!" is the 23rd episode of Thunderbirds, a British 1960s Supermarionation television series co-created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. One of the final episodes of Series One, it was written by Alan Pattillo and directed by David Lane, and was first broadcast on ATV Midlands on 10 March 1966. In this episode, set in South America, alligators grow to an enormous size after a swamp is contaminated by a newly invented growth chemical. When the animals proceed to attack a house, International Rescue must save the occupants trapped inside.Combining science-fiction and haunted house horror themes, with a plot written to be "nightmarish", the episode was filmed in late 1965. It is remembered for containing footage of actual crocodiles, doubling as re-sized alligators on scale model sets – the first appearance of live animals in an Anderson production. However, the animals' slowness and unpredictability complicated and delayed the filming, which involved the use of electric shocks to induce movement from the crocodiles. Although the AP Films Studios were briefly investigated by the RSPCA, animal abuse allegations were not upheld.A critic and fan favourite, despite the controversy of its production, "Attack of the Alligators" is commonly ranked as one of the best episodes of Thunderbirds. Since the filming of this episode and a later instalment, "The Cham-Cham", went over-time and over-budget, the series finale was re-written as a clip show to lower costs and simplify the shooting schedule. Ten years after first airing, "Attack of the Alligators!" provided the inspiration for an episode of The New Avengers, by ex-Thunderbirds scriptwriter Dennis Spooner.".

- Attack_of_the_Alligators! quote "I got a call from the operator to say that an RSPCA man had turned up ... He said, 'It's been reported that your boys are giving them electric shocks,' and I said, 'Well, I didn't know that, but let's go on to the stage and have a look.' So we went on to the stage and he was very, very grave and terribly concerned, but then he saw one of the puppets and he said, 'You're not filming Thunderbirds are you? Oh, God, that's my favourite programme.' ... He ended up taking his annual leave and coming to the studio to work for us, and he was personally giving the crocodiles electric shocks.".
- Attack_of_the_Alligators! quote "It was the one episode that gave us so much trouble. We had to work night and day ... We had a lot of fun, but it was a lot of heartache trying to get [the crocodiles] to do what you wanted them to do.".
