S12 Ep.11: Duncan and The Hot Air Balloon

THESE ARE SOLEY MY OPINIONS AND NOT FROM THE THOMAS & FRIENDS FAN BASE

DUNCAN AND THE HOT AIR BALLOON 
Written by
Mark Robertson 

Directed by
Steve Asquith 

Air Date:
15/09/08

Plot:
Duncan was sad that the Percival twins would have a balloon ride instead of a train ride for their birthday and so Duncan decided to pop the balloon's air out. But it turns out that Mr. Percival has other plans after the balloon ride. 

PRO:
- N/A 

CON:
- Why was the balloon inflated on the flatbed?

I'll be honest, this is the model version of 'Up, Up and Away', but shown differently (having one engine hauling a light load and not going through tunnels). The only flaw with this episode is the balloon being inflated. Why? When you watch 'James and The Red Balloon', Thomas hauled it like this:

This is not a great episode and hardly not worth the watch. 

Rating: 2/5
