S9 Ep.22: Skarloey The Brave

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

SKARLOEY THE BRAVE
Written by
Paul Larson 

Directed by
Steve Asquith 

Air Date:
11/11/05

Plot:
Skarloey was embarrassed after running away from some trucks and wants to prove he is brave


 PRO:
- N/A

CON:
- Skarloey acting young
- Why was the incline used for coal? 

The episode that made ending up hating Skarloey and the narrow gauge engines in the new series before his (Skarloey's) persona was repaired in 'Blue Mountain Mystery'. The writing for the episodes tarnished the older engines in the series. Skarloey is one of the examples of why fans are demanding for the writing to be changed. Skarloey is well over 100 years old and he should at least know that he is brave enough. I'm happy that 'Blue Mountain Mystery' restored Skarloey's true persona thanks to Andrew Brenner. As on the incline using coal, I don't know why they used that instead of slate. 

Rating: 1/5
