The "angry young man"
- "I think our security arrangements are inadequate, and would suggest that we ask International Rescue to be present at the next launching."
The angry young man is a character from Thunderbirds Are Go. Much to the dismay of his superior, he opposes another mission to Mars unless security is handed over to International Rescue.
He was voiced by Charles Tingwell.

The newspaper excerpt
- While remaining unnamed in all of the 'official' adaptations of the film, the character is, however, named as Colonel Edwin O'Brian in a competition found in issue 26 of Lady Penelope. The competition, published July 1966 (around four months before the film's premiere), was newspaper themed and therefore was decorated with various newspaper cuttings from the world of the future - one of which concerned the second launch of the Zero-X.
