Lieutenant Green is a fictional character in the 1960s British Supermarionation television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons and its 2000s animated remake, New Captain Scarlet.
In both series, Green serves as the personal assistant to Spectrum commander-in-chief Colonel White, and is shown to be an expert in computer programming and electronics. In the former, which depicts him as a native of Trinidad and Tobago,[2] he is the only non-white male officer on Cloudbase and the only lieutenant among its personnel. In the latter, the character is re-imagined as a woman.[3]
The original Green is the only black male character to have a substantial role in a Gerry Anderson Supermarionation series.[4]
