Despite the fact we’ve barely seen any promotional material, never mind a single piece of footage (although that might change in a couple of hours), CITV has announced that it has renewed the upcoming Thunderbirds Are Go! for a second series, ordering an additional 26 episodes of the upcoming CG revamp of Gerry Anderson’s classic TV show.
