I am surprised no one has commented that Bill ran without his crew, just like what Victor said motorized non-faceless vehicles can do in his world building special. It was also there he described the concept of the final firing. I am glad he’s using these world building elements as it gives them purpose.
@memeking72733 жыл бұрын
Tbh I count Cutberg (or what his real name is) as running crewless after all it seems unlikely that a driver and fireman would be assigned to him given how easily they'll be identified Edit (a year later): Sooo I was right on cutberg being crewless

I was legit cheering "good girl, Fifi!" when she spotted those two scoundrels near the shed. (What would that be in French, I wonder...) As I've been rediscovering the Thomas series, Bill and Ben have grown on me considerably, and I love seeing stories about them. Interesting idea giving one of them a spotlight episode. =) Well done!
@LittleRedIrishRover3 жыл бұрын
Victor this episode is amazing! I really loved seeing an episode centred around Bill and Ben (in fact it was mostly around Bill) and seeing the differences in their personalities. I also liked seeing their more intelligent sides, considering how a lot of both canon and fanon media tends to portray them as not much more than dumb pranksters. Good god Stanley’s comments about that German family was atrocious! Gordon is completely right about his statement with the Nazis being based on bigotry and hate. I happen to be of both German and some Jewish descent myself so let's just say Stanley's remark REALLY bothered me! What I really loved, however, was seeing Bill trying to keep Fefe safe despite his dislike of dogs and even gradually growing attached to her. That was a real character builder and I’m so glad Fefe was innocent! I really like how the engines in your universe can move without the assistance of a driver and fireman so long as they’ve got fire and water. I cannot wait for the next episodes and wish you best of luck in future endeavours!

You know, if you haven’t written anything for Season 5 yet, I have my own idea for an opening arc to start it off, I call it “The Stephen Hatt Arc”. I hope you like it, Victor. [The Stephen Hatt Arc:] Succession: After an attempt on Sir Topham Hatt’s life that caused him to receive unfortunate news about his life, both he and us engines were forced to confront a question we never thought we would have to. Oliver: After Stephen Topham Hatt arrived on Sodor with his private engine, coach, and brake-van. He had a wonderful time and was settling onto Sodor very well. however, the same couldn’t be said about his private engine, Oliver. Ambitions: When Stephen finally became Controller, it began very well at first. However, Stephen’s incredibly expensive and ambitious projects caused BR to make a decision and find a way to get rid of him. Election: The fate of The Hatt Legacy was at stake during the 1960 Sodor Controller Election, as Stephen’s competitor for Controller of the North Western Region, Bill Satchel, was immediately in the lead. However, Thomas’ overhaul gave Sir Stephen an idea on how to turn things around. Pack: After winning the election and breaking the North Western Region away from BR and making it it’s own railway, Stephen decided to begin work on all his projects by contacting the manager of a nearly bankrupt construction and logging company in Ireland he worked for before becoming controller. When Packard and Co. set up shop on Sodor, the company got a new lease on life and avoided closure. Stephen’s deal with Jenny Packard benefited her and the company, and was also a major help for the railway. However, Packard and Co. soon began to cause both Non-Faceless Vehicles and workers to lose jobs, with an old friend of ours being among them. Western: After Packard and Co.’s arrival on Sodor, Stephen Hatt decided to pursue one of his projects. Which saw the return of an old friend, a brand new miniature gauge line at Alresbrugh, and a daring rescue. Bulgy: After the “Little Western” was opened, tourism on Sodor boomed once again. However, since these tourists were new to Sodor, this allowed a particularly nasty bus to play a mean trick.

And here’s another one. Refugees: After the construction of the Little Western, word gets out about Sodor accepting out of date non faceless vehicles. This is when we get engines like Bear, Derek, and Boco.

Boy I wish I could write my idea for an episode like you do. Though I still have an interesting story idea. Say this story takes place in the middle of Season 4 part 2 or in Season 5. Edward opens with a narration stating what’s happening on Sodor and mention a group of people had a talk with Sir Topham Hat and causes confusion amongst the engines. Some think it’s the board wanting to bring more diesels while others think it’s SCP. After a 4 minute chat between engines, we cut to the engines at the sheds at night. Where Sir Topham Hat and a somewhat old man come to speak to them. Topham tells them who this man is and why he wants to talk them, it turns out the man is a locomotive engineer turned scientist who’s been studying the 3 theories as to how they come to live and wants to conduct a some experiments to try and figure out what make the engines come to life. His plan is to build one of each piece of railway machinery; engine, truck, coach, etc out of strong-see through material and record what happens during a first firing. He wanted to get permission from the engines first before he went any further, most of the engines agree. Then the SCP foundation get word of these experiments and often to help the man follow through with the plans. After a few months or a year, the see-through prototypes were built but not alive, yet. With cameras rolling, they start the first firing. This is where we would see a strange bright golden mist swirl around the bodies of the machines causing faces to appear. Confirming the revenant theory as true.

Wow, and I thought Duncan would be part German since some narrow gauge engines there look pretty similar to him.

Funny you should mention that. Something I read on the Wiki a while back did say that Duncan was given a German accent in the Latin American airings of some of the early seasons.

Really good episode, Victor! I recently started watching all of your videos since last month and they've been grand! I started with diagnosis and kind of went from there. Regardless, I'm enjoying what's been shown so far, its really well written, your editing is phenomenal and I really like how you depict each of the engines. You're probably one of Awdry's favourites, judging by how grounded in realism your episodes tend to be, just like the classic series. I do have a question, which I've been curious about for a while. I've noticed you tend to use the Thomas theme during the credits, But I don't know who made it, I'm only asking cause I really like it.
