Y'know, I recall this being pointed out in another review - there's a stark contrast between how the crash in "The Flying Kipper" is portrayed. The RWS version is very much played for laughs when you think about it. The goods train's crew are literally propelled out of the brakevan, Henry's driver gets stuck rather comedically and we have the little skit involving the cup of cocoa that is very much on par with the later "Just look what you've done to our breakfast!". The TVS version is played DEATHLY SERIOUS! The dramatic music that fades in when it's said the crew got out just in time, implying it could have been more serious if they hadn't, cuts out the moment Henry crashes into the brakevan and doesn't come back until the cut to the following morning. No music, no narration, no quips - just the sound of Henry dramatically derailing.
I'm guessing you're referring to The Unlucky Tug's review. My only concern about the TV series version is that it's said "They (the driver and fireman) got out just in time," but what about the guard??
Thank you for preserving these videos, It sucks that the original creator, Jeffery Kirtsch had to take them down since this was the closet thing to a book vs, movie in the Thomas series. Plus I wish that both dubs basically did what he did, refer to Sir Topham Hatt in both names, so they won't get too redundant.
Despite this book being about Henry, two of the stories primarily focus on Gordon and Percy respectively as the titles suggest (Gordon's Whistle and Percy and the Trousers).
Ngl most character centric RWS books have at least one story primarily about someone else Edward's book: berties chase is more about bertie Gordon's book: down the mine is mainly about thomas Toby's book: dirty objects is about james Ducks book: domeless engines is mainly about gordon Oliver's book: half of it is about Duck
@@LegendaryCaptainFact: the adaptation of Percy & The Trousers was the first episode to have original material from Britt Allcroft and David Mitton added into one of Awdry's stories, by means of extending the plot as the length of the original story was deemed too short.
4:29 I don't know if it's just me not being able to see the rear leading wheels but in that picture Henry looks like one of Gresley's 2-6-2 V2 engines, such as _Green Arrow_ .
Fact: A Scarf For Percy was the first to have original material from Britt Allcroft and David Mitton added into one of Awdry's stories, in terms of extending the plot as the original story was shorter.
@@mariobabbo3497 and yet there is a cut down version of that episode..also to mention, there is a BTS pic of TFC talking to Henry where James IS present
@@NewController01If Percy and the Trousers was adapted for S1, Then at the end of the episode, Percy should get teased by the other engines about his accident much to the little green engines embarrassment.
To me when I heard Johnny Morris voice Henry, he sounds like the old people in Spongebob. Same with Thomas, but to where he sounds like a young boi who is 4 or 5 years old.
Imo this adaptation is such a big contrast to gordon the big engine while in Gordon's book I found the adaptation worse due to how they pushed back leaves and paint pots and Queens I found what they did with the henry book adaptation to be an improvement instead First off percy and the trousers is so out of place that it easily worked better as a standalone season 3 episode Gordon's whistle and Henry's sneeze where like the first two james stories where they were short enough to be combined into an episode that flows nicely Flying kipper was so much better on TV I felt this was a crash not to be played for laughs considering Henry's fate at the time was uncertain due to the coal issue compared to thomas comes to breakfast which is just another big oof day for thomas
When someone complained to Awdry in 1972, he rejected the complaint, citing it as oversensitivity on the part of the Race Relations Board, though eventually relented and changed the line to "black as soot". The original line certainly wouldn't fly in print or on TV today.
Awesome job Jeffrey this is another one of my favorite spot the different videos I will say I do feel bad for Henry and engine that wanted to be really useful and luckily like James proving his worth Henry got the chance but I do wonder why Percy and the trousers AKA a scarf for Percy was in this book by the way I find it interesting this is the first book with five stories instead of four but awesome job man and I can't wait to see the next what's the difference Toby the tram engine
I noticed you haven’t mention Henry’s tender when Henry had his new shape in the rws Henry has a fowler tender but in the tv series he still have his original tender
Fun Fact: “Awdry was accused of being a racist due to the last story in this book. Originally he described the boys running away as black as The N Word. This caused controversy from the 1960s onwards, as black people were starting to be accepted by white people more and thus Awdry was accused of being a racist due to the word going out of fashion being used in his book. So Awdry was forced to change it to as “As black as soot”
Oh yes I remember that but however I don't think it was in this book I think it was put in the story Henry and the Elephant in the book Troublesome engines instead of Henry the Green Engine but that is something I've always wondered about thank goodness it wasn't actually included in one of the books because little kids do not need to see or hear that
Come.. on... Come.. on... Don't be.. silly, don'tbesilly, don'tbesilly, don'tbesilly, don'tbesilly, don't be silly don't be siillyy... Edit: Yes, I made sure to count the right amount of Don'tBeSillys
Percy and the trousers or a scarf for Percy would’ve been better if it was written in Percy the small engine. This is a book series based on Henry and the story of the book series is based more on Percy.
@AThePlaya thought that’s not so easy to tell, since the painted side of Is left pony wheel is mostly hidden by the shed wall. And the backside of his right pony wheel is unpainted.
Another difference between the story Henry's Sneeze and the episode Whistles and Sneezes, is the fact that there's a scene in the episode when Henry's driver is showed off talking, he has black soot and dirt on his cheeks where as in the book it doesn't even show that at all (you showed that off already but surprisingly you didn't say it I wonder why).
You can say a scarf for Percy domeless engines and duck and Dukes is for a different book duck and Dukes can be for Duke the Lost engine and a scarf for Percy can be for Percy the small engine and domeless engines can be for a I don't know what book would fit in with that story
Illustration error on Dalby's part - if you examine how Dalby draws Henry before The Flying Kipper, you'll see that Henry goes through several different appearances, sometimes within the same story. Henry's rebuild into a 5MT Black Five, i.e. a real-life locomotive (as opposed to a locomotive resembling a C1 Atlantic but not quite) at the end of The Flying Kipper was Awdry's way of forcing Dalby to be consistent - he was probably growing tired of children sending him letters asking why Henry looked different all the time.
This is my first time watching an episode from you and I don’t know if you do this in all of your episodes, but why was there a voice over in the episode even the puffing had a voiceover?
3:42 how was that allowed to happen? Was it under the control of a signalbox? How was the signalman able to clear the signals if the points were set into the siding? Again a major breach of signalling protocol
The narration in both sources says that "the signal should have been set at "Danger", but snow had forced it down". So the signalman was probably aware the points were frozen and had set the home signal to danger and the distant to caution, but likely had no way of knowing that a wrong-side failure (the industry term for when equipment failure causes a signal to show "clear" or "caution" when it should be at "danger/ stop") had occurred until Henry went into the siding. And if he was aware the home signal had failed and was in the "clear" position, he likely realised too late to warn Henry's crew. To be honest, I'm surprised that if Henry hit the points to the siding at mainline speed, that wasn't what derailed him.
@@davidantoniocamposbarros7528 I found it unnatural because it looks like he and Gordon have been combined together. I just like his TV series old shape model to where his running board is the same as his new shape.

Look a hidden Eagle when Henry winks at his driver Eagle is waiting at other platform
Looks like he's passing through the station quite fast.
Henry sounds like a old man struggling to take a dump.
To me when I heard Johnny Morris voice Henry, he sounds like the old people in Spongebob. Same with Thomas, but to where he sounds like a young boi who is 4 or 5 years old.
The Fireman actually had a bumped head sculptured for Whistles and Sneezes, but it was never used.
Henry has the same face as Wilbert w Awdry when he is sad
Fun fact grandma‘s footsteps in Slovenia is known as “Ljubljana Zagreb Beograd” The three biggest cities in the former Yugoslavia
Great to see these uploaded again! Keep up the great work!
I always thought the engine watching Henry be steamed up with Welsh Coal was James, since he was the one who collected it.
Imo this adaptation is such a big contrast to gordon the big engine while in Gordon's book I found the adaptation worse due to how they pushed back leaves and paint pots and Queens I found what they did with the henry book adaptation to be an improvement instead
First off percy and the trousers is so out of place that it easily worked better as a standalone season 3 episode
Gordon's whistle and Henry's sneeze where like the first two james stories where they were short enough to be combined into an episode that flows nicely
Flying kipper was so much better on TV I felt this was a crash not to be played for laughs considering Henry's fate at the time was uncertain due to the coal issue compared to thomas comes to breakfast which is just another big oof day for thomas
Also in A Scarf For Percy, James teases Percy that "legs go in trousers, not funnels", and informs Henry. Was never mentioned the book.
this is also the first appearance of the Fat Controllers full name. These are shown on his luggage trunk
These are great! Keep doing them please!

Henry’s face changes in one scene
I kinda miss the small green and yellow coaches
Why the heck does Johnny Morris make Henry sounds like a old man? 😐
Good video BTW
Because he was struggling with his coal
@@owendinostudios1200 but after that he still sounds like an 80 year old man
He also gave this voice to Edward for the third book for some reason
Because Johnny Morris is a hack of a narrator.
Well simple, like Michael Brandom
Don't forget the little inclusion of the N word in the original book
Wait what?

Percy and the trousers or a scarf for Percy would’ve been better if it was written in Percy the small engine. This is a book series based on Henry and the story of the book series is based more on Percy.
The engine who’s watching Henry at 2:21 is more likely James. Because of his round nose. Edward’s nose is more pointed shaped. so it can’t be him.
@AThePlaya thought that’s not so easy to tell, since the painted side of Is left pony wheel is mostly hidden by the shed wall. And the backside of his right pony wheel is unpainted.
Maybe it’s some random dude who they have on trial

That's differences from the books.
henry's problems show that size does matter
