Apparently the term "UFO" was pronounced "you-fo" on the show... which I just this minute realized is also the joke in the name of a Marvel supervillain team, the U-Foes.

Another series that is definitely worth watching. It's certainly the most adult-oriented of all the series Gerry Anderson produced - Captain Scarlet was similarly intended, but it never quite got over the puppet thing, and Space: 1999 was basically silly adventures in space (though the first series was quite good, really).
