00:00DIRTY WORK
00:05James is a shiny red engine.
00:09He always likes to look his best,
00:12and he likes his friends to know he's the smartest engine on Sodor.
00:18Thomas, Percy and Emily were at Tidmouth Sheds.
00:22James arrived. He'd been to the fitters' yard for repairs.
00:26He was excited to get back to work.
00:29I hope I get an important job today, wheezed James.
00:33The Fat Controller arrived.
00:35I need an engine for a special, boomed the Fat Controller.
00:39The Mayor must be taken to the Festival of Lights at the Scottish Castle.
00:44I'm the perfect engine for that job, sir, James whistled.
00:48Very well, James, said the Fat Controller.
00:51James was delighted.
00:54Thomas, Emily and Percy, added the Fat Controller.
00:58If you finish your jobs in time, you can all go to the festival too.
01:03I can't wait to see the festival, peeped Percy.
01:06Neither can I, wheezed Emily.
01:09You'll be the star of the show, James, tooted Thomas.
01:13That made James very happy.
01:16He couldn't wait to make a grand entrance.
01:19We have lots of jobs to do first, peeped Percy.
01:22You haven't anything to do all day, James, wheezed Emily.
01:26Can you help us?
01:27Me, snorted James.
01:29I can't help.
01:31It's much more important for me to look really smart when I arrive at my important passenger.
01:36And James puffed proudly away to the washdown.
01:43At the washdown, James was very happy.
01:46He enjoyed having his boiler brushed and his cab cleaned.
01:51Percy stopped by on his way to the quarry.
01:54I still have lots of work to do, he puffed.
01:57Can you help me, James?
01:59Sorry, Percy, sniffed James.
02:01It's much more important that I look smart.
02:04Now, I need to be polished.
02:09Soon, James was being polished until he shone.
02:13Don't forget to buff up my buffers, he tooted happily.
02:17Thomas puffed up with a long line of coal trucks.
02:20Cling, clang, cling, clang, they giggled.
02:23Those trucks look troublesome, laughed James.
02:26They are, tooted Thomas.
02:29Can you help me, James?
02:30Sorry, Thomas, cried James.
02:33I need to look smart for my passengers.
02:35Now, I have to get my funnel swept.
02:38As his funnel was being swept, James smelt a fishy smell.
02:43Bust my buffers, he cried.
02:46What's that?
02:47It was Emily.
02:49She was pulling fish trucks very slowly.
02:54These are very heavy.
02:56Can you help me, James? she puffed.
02:59I need to have some special flags fitted, sniffed James.
03:04They'll make me look smart when I arrive at the festival.
03:09At last, James was ready.
03:12His flags were fitted, his buffers beamed,
03:16and his paintwork shone from funnel to footplate.
03:20Everyone he passed cheered and waved.
03:24I'm the smartest engine ever, James puffed proudly.
03:33On the way to collect the mare, James passed the Scottish castle.
03:38It looked wonderful.
03:41Everything was ready for the festival, and the Fat Controller was waiting,
03:46but there were no engines.
03:48James was surprised.
03:50Where are Thomas and Percy and Emily?
03:53They haven't finished their work yet, boomed the Fat Controller,
03:56so they won't be here for the festival.
04:01James felt terrible.
04:03I must help my friends, otherwise they won't be here to see me be the star of the show.
04:12James found Thomas.
04:15He was still having trouble with his coal trucks.
04:18I'm going to miss the festival, he sighed sadly.
04:22No, you're not, puffed James, because I'm going to help you.
04:26And James did.
04:30James buffered up, and he helped,
04:34even though he got covered in coal dust.
04:42Next, James found Percy in the quarry.
04:46Percy was struggling to pull the quarry trucks.
04:49I'm going to miss the festival, Percy sighed sadly.
04:53No, you're not, puffed James, because I'm going to help you.
05:01And James did, even though he got covered in quarry dust.
05:12Then James found Emily at the junction.
05:16I can't pull the fish trucks any further, James.
05:19They're too heavy. I'm going to miss the festival, she sighed sadly.
05:24No, you're not, puffed James, because I'm going to help you.
05:29And James did,
05:33even though he knew he would be covered in smelly fish.
05:42At the Scottish Castle, the brass band was waiting.
05:47A red carpet was ready, and so were Thomas, Percy and Emily.
05:53They were all waiting for James to arrive with his important passenger.
05:58Here comes James, tooted Thomas.
06:02Everyone cheered as James arrived with the mayor.
06:06Everyone cheered as James arrived with the mayor.
06:10But James was worried.
06:12After helping his friends, he didn't look smart at all,
06:16and he certainly didn't feel like the star of the show.
06:20James, said the Fat Controller,
06:22you are a very hard-working and really useful engine.
06:27James was amazed.
06:30You're not cross with me, sir,
06:33even though my flags are drooping and I'm covered in coal dust and quarry dust and fish.
06:38What matters, James, said the Fat Controller,
06:42is that you helped all your friends and safely delivered your important passenger.
06:47Well done!
06:49James was very happy,
06:52and his friends all thought that James was still the star of the show.
