Britt Allcroft

From Thomas the Tank Engine Wikia

Britt Allcroft was co-founder of "The Britt Allcroft Company" with then-husband Angus Wright, known as Britt Allcroft Limited (later replaced as Gullane Entertainment) which was sold and acquired by HiT Entertainment in 2002. Allcroft is well known for her creation of "Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends" and its US counterpart "Shining Time Station". She was also the screenwriter and director of "Thomas and the Magic Railroad", and even supplied the voice of Lady. She also created the television show "Magic Adventures of Mumfie".

In May 2000 Allcroft was a director and advisor of Gullane, but by 2003 (a year after Gullane was sold and acquired by HiT), Allcroft had resigned from her remaining positions with the company. This was attributed to the poor reception of "Thomas and the Magic Railroad". She is currently working on a new live-action kids show called "The Scoobs" and another new show called "Wubbzy".
