you have to say what away to send off a brilliant childrens show, goodbye vienna, i mean goodbye at the end of and era, sometimes brings a tear to your eye. goodbye vienna, more like goodbye tugs...
@wootang2k9 Mike O'Donnell stated that there was talk to release a single of the theme music. This was sung by "Sue and "Sunny". It was never finished, but what was left is what you hear in this episode!
@SuperDooperVideoBoy Well a team of people could mod GTA IV to make digital tugs episodes. lot of hard work though, but it'd be a great starting block since Tugs is based in NY aswell, and the look of the water is similar.
@ruppy99 And the episode 4th of July itself. It's an American Holiday. The Tugs and ships are based on American boats, and American cars are seen around the ports.
@TheRyanCarMan Well, in the UK, we not known for our tug boats. So a lot of it has to be based on American things. But I don't recall any of the English voices ever being American. Lancastrian (Nantucket), Geordie (Sunshine), Welsh (O.J.), Scottish (Numerous), Irish (Boomer), West Country (Billy Shoepack), Estuary English (Ten Cents), queen's English (Various). Their attitude isn't very American either (luckily). There's probably a mix because of it being created by one Brit and one American.
@jeneshisugakuto Ten Cents accent was a Londoners, you missed out that Top Hat's was an Arostcartic English and Feddie and Eddie (His Railway bardges) had Cocknie accents...
i remember watching this when i was like 5. im now 17. sure brings bak memories. nd i realise now that the ending was so perfect for it to finish. goodbye tugs. god speed
All the characters in Tugs was based on real life vessels including the Liners:
"Duchess" was the SS Imperator / RMS Berengaria
"Princess Alice" was the "Empress of Ireland" (sank in 1914, killing 1024)
"Vienna" had RMS Aquitania's superstructure, but with distinctive staggered pairs of funnels similar to the SS Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. In Salty's Lighthouse she was callad R.M.S. Martania in homage to RMS Mauretania but does not look like her.
You know I think the model for Venniea was re-used in later Thomas Series...
