The Christmas 2007 Radio Times featured a column discussing the evening (on page 212). Sadly, no pictures! The Daily Telegraph newspaper also had a small feature on the tribute documentary.
This website is a tribute to Irwin Allen, the performers, the production crews, and the studios who made the television shows and movies a reality. It is also a tribute to all the people who help to keep these productions alive for future generations.
