The History Of Sir Topham Hatt & His Models: The History Of TTTE 

"The models were never featured prominently" Clearly someone forgot about the gem that is "Lady Hatt's birthday party".

I was Lowkey expecting a “you have caused confusion and delay” mixed in with the regular chorus of whistles at the end of the video

FINALLY A CLOSE UP OF HIS TINY SCALED MODEL!!!

There are so many human characters left out of the show. Sir Handel Browne and his son Sir Handel The Second, Mr Mack, Mr Peter Sam and his son Mr Roger Sam, and even Sir Topham's great-grandson Sir Richard Topham Hatt.

Topham IS going to be in the reboot actually, but he won't be a controller, he'll be a comedian.

Oh okay, didn’t expect this, nice. Also 4:23 Dead.

Topham in thumbnail: my superiority is off the quay percy fell off that one time

Sir Topham Hatt is my favorite character. He has a cool story in the railway series. He is always funny in cgi and has iconic quotes.

Glad you're back. You can do 'Arry and Bert and their models' history next.

Instead of "Hand Sculpted" in Maya I just say mouse sculpted. Loved this video, it's nice to have a series that focuses on all of the engines models and in such great detail too. Love your videos very much and keep up the fantastic work.

He's always been my favorite human character. I remember getting nervous when he gave someone a stern talking to for messing up and causing confusion and delay. But I would be happy when someone did a good job and he called them really useful.

Who can imagine all the RWS books or the TVS versions of TTTE without the engines having faces?

You had EVERY chance to make it like a 1960s American-Italian Mob Boss documentary, 'The Fat Controller, The man, the legend, the model.' All you had to do was add in the Godfather music and the opening was sorted.

He's big, he's back Goes by the name of Sir Topham Hatt

STH is actually in the reboot, he's said to be the only human that interacts with the engines.

I didn't know the history of the people models, let alone Sit Topham Hatt, thanks for making this TrainBoy.

4:21 R.I.P Sir Bertram Topham Hatt (1984 - 2021) Died due to a nuclear fallout

This was a great history on Sir Topham Hatt models and history!! I certainly didn't know that in the Railway series there was a whole generation of different types of Sir Topham Hatt!! I always thought Sir Topham Hatt is always the same guy!!

Michael Angelis's voice for the Fat Controller was the best in my opinion.

are you kidding me I missed it why didn't it show up on my recomened list! this isn't fair! 😡 Great video by the way😃👍

5:18 i love that sound

Another awesome history video!

If they ever go back to doing a 3D Thomas series, they should be like the LEGO movie, where it looks like actual models, but done in CGI. Characters like Sir Topham Hatt would have a limited number of poses, to add to the charm.

1:06 Because nothing says 'father figure' then bricking engines up in tunnels!

Interesting!

Has anyone ever figured out why he stands on top of so many boxes and barrels in the television series to talk to the engines?? The most dangerous setup IMO was “The Sad Story of Henry” as they are building the wall in the tunnel!

Sir Topham Hatt is like a god to the engines

This was an amazing video. I completely agree with your opinions.

Great video

New idea. Train boy and the unlucky tug video collaboration

3:55 Sir Topham is doing the t pose😂😂

I still don't get why people see him as a cruel dictator, he's just a man trying to run a railway with Troublsome engines...

Railway series and Tvs crossover discussion???!!!😱😱😱😱

He is gonna be in the reboot, just as a background character I think

Hector,Bertie the break down crane or the Chinese dragon should be next.

Im not the only one who thinks the small scale models head looked squished right

The last part was a funny ending. Also I started following you on instagram.

I think it’s a good move from the TV Series to make just one character named Sir Topham Hatt rather than a line of ancestry.

Bruh thumbnail looks like he’s mad or smth

he is in the reboot, for comic relief

"The close-up model was made from lead." Me: "WHAT"

the fact stephen is a kid throughout the tv series implies *BERTRAM IS A IMMORTAL GOD*

I really hope you roast the reboot when It starts

I have a book in which Sir Topham Hatt has a flashback to when he was a little boy, and him and his father are traveling with a horse and cart, but it breaks. Stepney comes along, and Topham Hatt and his father have to ride on the coal car Stepney is pulling. They never mention the father’s name though. (Tbh, I’m not even sure this book is canon, cuz I doubt that Stepney could’ve been on Sodor before season 1takes place, let alone decades before.). The book is called Thomas-saurus Rex (geddit?)

Trainboy, why does the thumbnail topham look like he's on some sort of register? Luv u x 😂

I would love an episode with humans playing a major role.

Did you know in TATMR Sir Topham Hatt was originally gonna have a live action appearance but it didn’t happen because they couldn’t find an actor of the right size

One positive thing about the reboot. At least they made Thomas railway series accurate from after Thomas comes to breakfast, hence flat running board

5:15 Come along Henry, it’s time your train was ready.

The former RU-vidr CombineHarvester01 apparently owns a closeup model of Sir Topham Hatt, although I'm not sure on all the details. It's probably been a good 8-10 years since he got it and his whereabouts are very much unknown to me.

As you can see, I'm a very busy man.

i don't know whether you forgot about this, but a modified CGI model of Sir Topham Hatt all pumped up on Juice was made for a Studio Hansa film called "The Thomas and Friends Institute of Innovation". Apparently, the film was made to advertise the Thomas and Friends IP to studios other than HIT Entertainment. The lab technicians apparently took issue with him being a "Fat Controller" and made him get in shape...The SWOLE Controller?!? lol

Get your premiere tickets here my dudes

I really need to re-read the books. I have 3 copies of the complete collection (books 1-26, all the Rev. W Awdry's books), plus hardback copies of books 1-6 in a box plus 7, 11, 27, and 30, plus a few random copies like a 12th edition hardback copy of book 2 from 1953, a 1994 book club edition of book 2, and several different novelisations of the tv show. I also need to re-watch the tv show, since I haven't seen more than half way through series 9.

Nice!

@5:15 to the end. Best truth telling i ever heard in my life.

1:41 Is it me or does it look like he a really long finger :P What is seen can never be unseen!

The Fat Controllers name does not appear in the books until Henry the Green Engine in the story Percy and the trousers where in the picture of Percy sneaking into the station we can see on one of the trunks on the porters trolley "Sir Topham Hat"

Do a vid about the missing coach the forgotten episode that would make for a interesting video

One day he was having breakfast. And Thomas decided to call!

Cool 😎

The craziest people are the drivers and firemen since they somehow are safe after a crash

"I am disappointed with you butters" - trainboy

YES

sir topham hatt's wood model season 1 1984-the great discovery 2008 sir topham hatt's gauge 3.5 model season 6 2002-season 10 2006

Sir Charles Topham Hatt II be like: "Ladies and Gentlemen! My name! Is Paul! Heyman!"

why does he always has a security detail with him in the show and cgi?

I wonder who the next history video will be on

We know he has grandchildren, but my question is where are his kids? Also, that makes his mother a great-grandmother.

You should do Rosie next

You have to do a narrow gauge engine

UPDATE: Sir Topham Hatt is in All Engines Go now

Is there any measurement photos of the g1 sth? I’m trying to make my own

Sir Topham Hatt is in AEG

Funny story I saw the unused devil costume in Tatam parody Halloween special

it would be interesting if the 3 controllers were in the TV show but i see why they didn't do it

SILENCE!!!!!!!!! -Sir Charles Topham Hatt

Please do one for Lady!

Where do you find these auctions?

Perfect ending!🤣🤣

Did Mattel actually say that offically? the last I heard he was definitely going to appear in season 25. it would'nt be Thomas and friends with out the head of the NWR

5:18 he is gonna be in the reboot?

What episode is 2:20 from? Also, even in the good seasons of the CGI era, I never cared for how Topham and the other humans looked/moved in CGI, They basically just redid the model figures in CGI. I’d personally go for a more Pixar-esqu design.

I feel stupid asking, but where did you get your sir topham hat model?

S I R T O P H A M H A T

Is there a video on everything we know on the reboot so far?

Can You Do A Video About D261?

Why does toms props have a Toby and we’re did he got it

Just about something else when are you going to get a Bachmann or hornby Gordon

Nobody: Topham: Gimme me bloody mcdonalds iv only had 7 cheeseburgers in the past hour I need more!!!!

I understand why they didn't use the devil costume model; Sir Topham Hatt is already scary enough without it. Also, SATAN.

Cool

Sir Topham hat is in the reboot

Can you make a CBR3 video?

Excuse me what? They are leaving out one of the most important humans in the franchise? The fuck? I like the model you have for your tail.

*A-posing sir topham hatt don't exist, he can't hurt you.* *A-posing sir topham hatt: **3:51*

S19 did Topham dirty

Actually he is in tje reboot!

What’s the figure you have called

Am I the only one who thought his CGI model looked like a sims character?
