The puppet character of the TV series and first two films was voiced by David Graham. In the live-action film, Parker is portrayed by Ron Cook. Graham reprised his role for the part-computer-animated, part-live-action remake series Thunderbirds Are Go!, which first aired in the UK in 2015.
The character is known for his hypercorrected Cockney speech and frequent use of the phrase "Yes, M'Lady" to acknowledge Penelope's orders.
