Storyline

Trivia
Some of the main puppet cast are based on real people including:
Troy Tempest was modeled on the facial features of American actor James Garner.
Marina was modeled on Brigitte Bardot.
Atlanta Shore was modeled on her voice actress Lois Maxwell.
Titan was based on a young Laurence Olivier.
Surface Agent X-2-Zero is modeled on Claude Rains but his voice is imitative of Peter Lorre.
Gerry Anderson said that he did not explicitly instruct the sculptors to base Troy on Garner; instead, he named him simply to help them visualize the character, as he could see that they were struggling with his original brief (which merely called for Troy to be square-jawed and heroic-looking).

Goofs
The use of "Commander" here does not refer to rank but to Commanding Officer which could be any rank that is above the others. Shore's actual rank is not mentioned.

Alternate versions
At least two made-for-video movie releases exist, created by editing episodes together. These are The Incredible Voyage of Stingray (1980) and Invaders from the Deep (1981).

Connections
Edited into The Incredible Voyage of Stingray (1980)

I like this but I don't know why

I've never been able to get into Thunderbirds or the rest of these marionette shows but I enjoy this one. Even though they are the protectors of the sea, they know almost nothing about it. They are constantly encountering new races of under water people they have never heard of and those people know everything about Stingray and WASP and want to destroy them. They have a woman who never speaks and never has anything to do with the story but the song over the end credits is about her. None of it makes any sense but I like it.
