Plot:
Percy and Duck like to work at the harbour. One day, Percy and Duck saw a Regatta and Duck wished he can be travel to far away lands. Harold told them all about it as he's needed in case of emergencies. Percy thought Duck was silly. Just then a man from the Regatta had hurt his hand and is in need of help to get to the hospital. After Duck gave the man to Bertie, Duck realised that Percy was right. That night, flag came down as it was a thank you to Duck for helping the man. Duck still has his dream about what's on the horizon.
PRO:
- Percy having common sense at the time, unlike today's episodes.
- The revamped 'Viaduct' theme was amazingly catchy.
CON:
- Why is the man taking Duck and Bertie for the hospital, he needs an ambulance.
- Brake vans should be added to Duck and Percy's trains.
I enjoyed this episode and I watch it again and again. But there are a few flaws, yes, there are no brake vans on the back of the two tank engines trains and yes why would Duck wish himself to be a boat? And why on earth did Bertie take the man to the hospital? What about an ambulance? But I do like how Percy actually has common sense in this episode rather then the episodes today and the revamped 'Viaduct' theme is extremely catchy and I enjoy listening to it on its own, if only HIT released them on CD.
