Joe McClaine is a 9-year-old boy whose adoptive father has developed a method of transferring specialist “brain patterns”.
Joe 90 is a 1968 television series concerning the adventures of a nine-year-old boy, Joe McClaine, set in the years 2012-13. Devised by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, a single season of thirty 25-minute episodes was completed, and it was the last show to be made exclusively using a form of puppetry called “Supermarionation”.
It was created for Lew Grade’s ITC Entertainment by Century 21 Productions (by this time also under Grade’s ownership), and was first broadcast on the British ITV network by Associated TeleVision.
Joe’s adoptive father and computer expert, Professor Ian McClaine, is the inventor of the BIG RAT, (Brain Impulse Galvanoscope Record And Transfer), a device that allows knowledge and experience to be copied from the minds of top experts in their fields to another person.
Mac’s friend, Sam Loover, a secret agent for the World Intelligence Network (WIN), persuades Mac to let Joe use the machine to work for WIN.
After the requisite skill is transferred, and provided Joe is wearing special spectacles containing hidden electrodes, he is able to fly jet fighters, perform surgery, and so on, while appearing innocent in the eyes of his enemies.
There is some inconsistency as to why Joe is called “90.”
According to the promotional information, when Joe joined World Intelligence Network (WIN) there were 89 agents based in London, making him the 90th.
However, in the episode “Project 90″ the BIG RAT is designated project 90 and Joe is named after this.
Joe 90 was Gerry Anderson and Sylvia Anderson and stars Len Jones and Rupert Davies.
