00:00Diesel's Ghostly Christmas, part one.
00:06Christmas is the busiest time of the year for the engines of Sodor.
00:15There are more passengers and more deliveries than at any other time of the year.
00:31Merry Christmas, Thomas! All ready for the Earl's Grand Christmas Lunch tomorrow?
00:37Not yet, Edward. I've got to get these singers to their rehearsal and then pull all those trucks up to the castle.
00:45Oh-ho-ho! You are busy, Thomas!
00:50Oh, dear! Hello, sir! Merry Christmas!
00:54I'm afraid I'm not feeling very merry at the moment, Thomas.
00:57I'm supposed to be at Brendam Docks, but I twisted my ankle so I can't drive.
01:02Oh, would you be able to take me instead?
01:05Oh, I'd love to help, sir, but I've got to take the singers to their rehearsal and then trucks up to...
01:11Oh, well. Don't mind me, then.
01:14But if one of my friends can help me, sir, I'm sure that I can help you!
01:20Merry Christmas, Diesel!
01:23What reason have we to be merry?
01:26I was wondering if you'd help me.
01:28No, Thomas. I can't help you. I'm busy.
01:33Oh, Diesel is about as helpful as a chocolate firebox!
01:42Emily!
01:45Luckily, Emily was happy to help Thomas,
01:50so he was able to take the Fat Controller to Brendam Docks.
01:58Hurry up with that flatbed, Suitsie! These chains are coming loose!
02:03Arrgh! My fuel line is frozen!
02:06Hurry up with that flatbed, Suitsie! These chains are coming loose!
02:11Arrgh! My fuel line is frozen! I can't make it to you in time!
02:19Diesel, help me! You need to push that flatbed onto these tracks, my horse!
02:24I don't need to do anything. I've got enough jobs to do without helping you do yours.
02:36Shiver me timbers! The tree!
02:41Arrgh!
02:44Whoops!
02:49If you'd been bothered to help, Diesel, this never would have happened!
02:54That's not my problem!
02:56But, Diesel! Christmas is a time for goodwill!
03:01Bah! Come back!
03:07Hmm...
03:12At last, the huge Christmas tree was loaded onto a flatbed for Paxton to deliver to Ulfstead Castle.
03:24I should be going. I think I may need some help.
03:28Oh, maybe Diesel could help you. He doesn't have any more trucks.
03:34Oh, I told you I'm busy!
03:39Oh, Diesel!
03:43Paxton set off for the castle, but the huge tree was rolling around so much, the chains were coming loose.
03:52And with no back engine to see what was happening, there was nobody to warn Paxton.
04:00Arrgh!
04:07Ow!
04:12Merry Christmas!
04:15Bah! Humpback!
04:20Diesel! You came to help after all!
04:24No, I didn't. One of those other engines that likes being helpful will be along soon enough.
04:31But, but...
04:34Paxton! Are you okay?
04:38Yes, I'm fine. Just a little bit off the tracks, that's all.
04:43Those tracks look like they'll need some repairs. But was that Diesel who just went by?
04:50Yes, but I think Diesel must be very busy today, Thomas.
04:54I'd like to find a way to teach that unhelpful Diesel just what being helpful is all about.
05:04That evening, when Diesel returned, he found the Diesel Works mysteriously deserted.
05:12Hello? Hello?
05:16Where is everybody?
05:28Okay, you can stop messing around now.
05:33What's that?
05:37Who's there?
05:40I'm a Marley's ghost, and I am here to warn you to stop being such an unhelpful engine.
05:53I think we need more steam.
05:58Then just go away!
06:01You shall be visited by three more ghosts before Christmas.
06:11The Fat Controller said he needs you to go to the docks tonight, or you'll be in big trouble!
06:21Big trouble?
06:31This plan of yours is great fun, Thomas!
06:38Diesel raced quickly into the docks.
06:41He had been scared by the ghost, and didn't like the sound of being in even more trouble.
06:48Sir? Are you here, sir?
06:54Cranky? Was that you?
07:02Oh!
07:08Oh!
07:12I am the ghost of Christmas past.
07:17I should go. I think Thomas needs my help at the shunting yard.
07:28You? Help Thomas? When was the last time you helped someone, Diesel?
07:37Well...
07:40Let's go back and see, shall we?
07:48You weren't helpful that time you pushed those trucks into the sea.
07:55And you weren't helpful when you spilt milk on the Fat Controller either.
08:03And you definitely were not helpful when you refused to move the flatbed yesterday.
08:15Poor old Salty! Poor old Salty!
08:30So, how did poor old Salty do?
08:37Spooky!
08:40Spooky indeed!
