507. A Shed for Edward.
Written by: Lee Pressman.Aired: 4 October 2017.
Edward is puffing down the line when he meets Philip. James speeds past the engines and Edward tells him to slow down. We later find out James' brakes don't work because of the lack of brake fluid. The episode then shows James crashing into Tidmouth Sheds, into Edward's Berth, from the previous episode again.
That night, The Fat Controller comes to the shed and tells Edward that he have to sleep somewhere else because of the damage when James had bad brakes. Philip, who is nearby, suggests Edward that he can sleep in his shed near Wellsworth. Edward goes to Philip's shed, but Philip keeps on talking until morning. Edward didn't get some sleep. He goes back to Tidmouth Sheds to see how the repairs are going. The Fat Controller tells Edward that the repairs will take a week. That night, Edward sleeps at Brendam Docks. Edward begins to fall asleep, but Salty starts singing sea shanties in his sleep. Porter reveals to Edward that Salty sings Sea Shanties in his sleep.
The next morning, Edward meets Phillip, who says how fun it was that Edward slept at his shed, and then starts talking obnoxiously about it. Edward leaves as soon as the the signal goes green, making Philip a little sad. That night, Edward sleeps at the Steamworks. He manages to doze off, but suddenly woken up as Victor, Kevin, and the workmen are repairing James. Edward left the Steamworks. He tries sleeping on a ship, but is awoken by the ship's horn and splashes sea water on his boiler. He then tries sleeping at Ulfstead Mine, but then the men starts blasting. He finally tries sleeping in the forest, but can't get to sleep because of owls hooting multiple times. The next morning, Edward was very tired. He falls asleep as he pulls into Knapford. He is about to collide into Percy, but Philip wakes him up with his horn. He thanked Philip and Philip says that it's sad that Edward doesn't like sleeping in his shed. Edward says he likes sleeping there, but needed sleep because of Philip talking. Philip apologises and asks Edward to sleep in his shed tonight. He promised not to talk. That night, Edward falls asleep. Philip is about to wake him, but remembers not to talk during that time.
The next day, Edward returns to see the sheds fixed. Philip says how much he enjoyed Edward staying and wishes he could stay again. Edward says he could stay another night, and The Fat Controller says he can stay permanently at Wellsworth. Edward agrees to stay. In the end, both Edward and Philip happily puff to their shed. The other engines will miss Edward and wonder who will take his berth.
Well, all I can say is, this episode was....interesting to say the least. And interesting enough, Mark only read the title card for this episode. That's it! No narration whatsoever!
And it was a good follow up to The Fastest Red Engine on Sodor. And it shows that Edward just couldn't catch a break...until he asked Philip the Boxcab to keep quiet whenever he's around.
And this episode has a good moral, sleep is important.
And it turns out those certain Twitter rumours are likely to be true about Edward leaving the Steam Team, as this episode shows. Edward being relocated to Wellsworth with Philip? I mean whatever happened to Boco?
The one thing that will make me accept the fact is if they would just abandon this "Steam Team" concept as a whole! And maybe relocate Thomas and Percy to Ffarquhar in the future.
And as for whoever will take Edward's spot in Tidmouth, I hope it's either Boco, Bear, Duck, Oliver, Murdoch, Molly, or MAH BOI Arthur!
So even if the rumour does come true, it won't affect my views on this episode.
That's all of Season 21 for now. Expect the Christmas reviews in December!
