I’m glad that this was updated with all the new information we now know about the missing episode ‘The Missing Coach.’ Like many fans, I really hope that the filmed footage gets released and perhaps even finished (like getting Ringo Starr to narrate the episode as planned)
Well you know because of the CGI episodes and the ugh season 😑 🙄 😒 😪 25 happening im not saying it won't happen but with Mattel in charge of Thomas and Friends and season 25 is worth of a James yuck from the classic model series for when he says it in the episode dirty object to the trucks
I suspect Ringo did the narration for it in 1985/86 anyway. There is a notable difference in audio quality between the intro scene and the "there was a brakevan in the yard" scene.
This book does have the fewest adaptations from WILBERT Awdreys original series. But in ALL the railway series books, written by him and the ones written by his son ALL TOGETHER, “Toby Trucks and Trouble” has the fewest adaptations of all. Because only one of its stories was adapted for television.
This is one of those times that the book should be a total number of “2/4 stories adapted for TV” but ends up being “4/4 stories adapted into 3 episodes for TV” because of 1 episode being almost completed by the production team
Technically, the livery of Donald & Douglas is LMS black. The Caledonian Railway became part of the LMS - as they opperated services from London, the east and west Midlands & Scotland. The livery was continued by British Railways.
When British Railways came in, Donald and Douglas would have had the LMS branding replaced with the BR lion crest and the 57646 & 57647 numbers applied.
Another great video and I like that you included the leaked stills from last year. I think the reason why the twins weren't repainted blue for the television series is because of budget and/or impracticality.
@@stuartsamtheunoriginaledit2790 Yes, I do, because it's staying faithful to The Railway Series. The twins chose blue because that's the colour they would have been on the Caledonian Railway. Anyway, there are lots of green engines. Some might say "too many".
I think they weren’t painted blue because of how the series where filmed They build a set, filmed all the scènes of that season om that set, dismantel the set and build the next one So it would be impossible to paint them blue or they would need another set of models but that would be out of budget
There is a bit of footage of ' Hello Twins and The Missing Coach ' from ' Break Van ' though it feels like a three part story for the first and only time.
Although Hullo twins and The missing coach were cancelled, it can be possible that their events still happen. After all, break can mentions how 1 of the Scottish twins were expected and both of them get new numbers.
The hasty beginning of break van mentions some events of hullo twins and the missing coach, noting that their events still should take place during this story
Donald: Yer a muckle nuisanze! It’z ta leeve ya behind, I’d bi wantin’. Van: You can’t! I’m essential. Donald: Auk! Are ya? Yer bath in’ bat a sqreeckin’ in a noise wen al’s set she dune. Spite Doggie, would ya? Tak rhat! Van: Ow-ah-ohh! Donald: There’z moar coomin’ syne ya misbehave.
I’m sorry but the thumbnail makes it look like Donald and Douglas are trying to hold back their laughs the first time they heard Sir Toppham Hat’s nickname.
7:35 i think your right black suits donald and douglas's liveries to make them unique because to me their livery remudns me of a scottish traditional outfit and kilt
book vs some screenshots #4 and 3 are in a yard with the twins either side; in Tidmouth Sheds at night, twins are on one side outside the berths missing coach is a 3rd class Stroudley instead of a red and cream Mk 1 Donald's tender's in a distant shed instead of just behind Douglas
Request: the railway series book 22 the small railway engines (spot the differences ) tit for tat Mike's whistle useful railway finally you are now going to the cgi series
I do prefer Kenney (sp?)'s artwork, I have to say. The Spiteful Brakevan has always bothered me though; it has a face, it talks, it has a personality, but it's completely torn apart, and its face, it seems, with it. Isn't that at the very least manslaughter (perhaps deliberate)?
I'm surprised you didn't say in the video why you uploaded this. I'm also surprised you didn't even say that in the title of this video where at the end of the video's title you could've said reuploaded in parentheses.
@Joshua W56 Before you mean. And yes, Britt didn’t always make good choices. Don’t get me wrong, she is a really nice, well meaning woman, but she needed to get a few of her priorities straight.
Man, Willie Rushton misses the feeling of the character too much of the time. He managed to skip right through Percy's deputation where Ringo made him sound a bit like Oliver Twist.
I can appreciate why Britt Allcroft would pass over 'The Missing Coach'. Douglas shunts the coaches to a siding adjacent to the station, Donald and Douglas and their drivers observe the resulting commotion, the tender switch occurs...all within convenient witness of Sir Topham Hatt as the ultimate indication; in reality they would have not been able to get away with it. Regards, Samuel Farris.
With Donald and Douglas save Thomas and the Christmas tree from the snow that fell on him and then the Fat Controller let's Donald and Douglas stay on the Island of Sodor after they save Thomas and the Christmas tree from the snow to save their Christmas party on the Island of Sodor I haven't seen the UK version for when they save Henry from the snow and when Donald and Douglas save Thomas and the Christmas tree from the snow Gordon, Percy, James, Duck, Henry, Thomas, Donald, and Douglas all cheer that they get to stay like how they do in the episode for when Donald and Douglas save Henry from the snow
