@SI3DFilms actually they have done this in hiro of the rails well something like this it was thomas and spencer in the shunting yards the race began no need to worry
There One Goof in this video 1. Gordon was on duck line at knapford when edward steam forward to start the race to asked duck and Spencer and Gordon was on different track.
Not bad, man, definitely better than what HiT churns out. I didn't mind the rhymes this time around, probably because it's better scripted than HiT's productions. Nice to see Duck again :)
Hah, at 3:01, Gordon's on the same track as Duck, but @ 3:18, he's moved to the other side of Henry. Kind of reminds me of the older series 'mistakes', I liked that alot :P
This the best made up episode i've watched for a while, proberley since 'Saved by a slip' Ha, but seriously this is brill, better than what HIT dishes out these days. Well done
P.S.: "...his last race with Spencer" - FYI, HiT episodes NEVER recall the past. That would violate their excuse to change situational events every single episode.
One thing that kind of bugs me about this, and not the unrealism of big engines being on branch lines or Duck's foolishness, is Spencer. Just the way he looks.. is there not another model which does not feature the side-coverings like on this engine? eh.. That's really the only thing that bugs me about this. The rest of it= excellent work :)
You know, for a story meant to seem like a New Series episode, it didn't quite come out like a New Series episode: it came out GOOD. :-P Only two rhymes, the presence of Duck, and a plotline that's not rubbish. Good work, Callum! :-)
And BTW, might I add, TheTopHatts is a bang-up narrator! :-D
Man, this was better than any S13 episode ANY day. Your story was brilliant and TheTopHatt's narration and voices were brilliant. You should get a job as a writer for Thomas, Callum.
You say this is like a S13 ep. I don't think so, I think it's a helluva lot better than all of them! It's an amazing plot and TheTopHatts did an amazing job with the narration.
What can I say? You reflected the style of a new episode really well and it even had a charm to it. It has the infamous morales Hit's new episodes are known for due to parent action groups but you have managed to make it enjoyable as the morale in this story was original and not an obvious lesson like "saying please" :) Maybe you should write the actual Thomas episodes from now on too :)
This is nearly exactly how I expected a 'new series' episode centered around Duck to be. It's fantastic! And you've somehow managed to make the rhyming bearable xD
Although I was pleased that I was approached to do this, I could have done better, only recieved the script on the day of the upload and didn't have time. If there is another Cal, I'll be better!
good one

@TTTEParody lol it's true. And they probably wouldn't say "12 P.M", maybe something like 'noon' or 'teatime'.. (2:54/5)
Lightninging63 1 year ago
Beautiful work - but the dialogue is too well scripted to be a HiT episode. Nevertheless, I'm glad it's so.
P.S.: If you really want the HiT sound, try:
"The Fat Controller's railway is a busy and bustling place."
"...keep the railway running and rolling."
"...the Fat Controller came to Tidmouth Sheds." ("arrived at" is too intelligent for HiT)
"Spencer huffed and chuffed in."
"...pushing and pulling coaches"
...etc.
