Captain Scarlett or Thunderbirds

Had the pleasure of Sunday lunch with Keith Alexander three weeks back. He had been flown from Australia for a 60 years of Thunderbirds celebration tour. He is now the last surviving cast member and is a close friend of my father in law. He was not a voice in the series but appeared in the films and then became a mainstay in UFO. 97 years old, sharp as a tack with hundreds of stories. Signed a Gabrielle Drake picture for me with her character having such a big part to play in my early ‘awakening.’ A lovely experience - meeting and listening to him I mean!

For its absolute lunacy Terrorhawks should be much higher up.
 
Thunderbirds from the original question, Fireball XL5 and Joe 90 if all bets are off

The mysterons were scary to a little nipper like me

I enjoyed it as a kid but only for the naughts and crosses, watched an episode other month and was not as impressed

I left space precinct off which is also a banger
