This series caused mayhem at ITV in the 1960s, panicking its executives, over fears that children might imitate the antics of Captain Scarlet, who becomes indestructible. Fearing that children might believe they could imitate this, ITV made changes to the show when it was re-run in the 1970s. The 1967 mini album recordings were released before any changes were made by ITV.

Modern releases of this show on VHS and DVD do not use the changed versions of the episodes. But for many years it was difficult to obtain the original versions, as featured on these mini albums.

There are also a collection of novels, released in 1967, based on the tv show:

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
