THESE ARE SOLEY MY OPINIONS AND NOT FROM THE THOMAS & FRIENDS FAN BASE
THOMAS AND THE TOY SHOP
Written by
James Mason
Directed by
Steve Asquith
Air Date:
25/10/05
Plot:
A new toyshop is to be opened at Knapford and all the toys from the factory are to be delivered to the shop. On the day of the opening, Emily is to take the children and Henry is to take a new machine to the toy factory and later on the toys to the shop. This made Thomas sad. However, Emily broke down and Thomas is to take the children after he's done with his jobs. Meanwhile at the harbour, a crate had fallen right in front of Henry and Thomas is to take the toys as well, but as they approached the hill, Thomas found out that the load was too heavy.
PRO:
- A nice RWS easter egg with the picture from 'Tank Engine Thomas Again'
CON:
- Thomas should've realised that he can't pull heavy loads on his own.
- Surely the workmen would've cleaned up the mess straight away?

This episode is alright, but has its usual flaws. But I do like how they've added the picture of Thomas with Annie and Clarabel from 'Tank Engine Thomas Again' a nice easter egg for the older viewers, even if it is from a drab season.
Rating: 4/5
