“Merry Misty Island!"
"That's right!”
― The engines at the Misty Island Christmas party

Merry Misty Island is the nineteenth episode of the fourteenth series.

Plot

Christmas is coming to Sodor and all the engines are very excited. The Search and Rescue Centre is being decorated, the Fat Controller's office is covered with sparkling lights and Harold hovers in with a Christmas tree. Bash, Dash and Ferdinand chuff out of the Misty Island Tunnel pulling flatbeds of Jobi logs. The Logging Locos are puzzled by all the decorations, so Rocky, Captain and Thomas explain that they are decorating for a Christmas party. Bash and Dash tell Thomas that they have never had a Christmas party on Misty Island because they never had any friends to invite. Thomas reminds them that they have lots of friends now and tells the logging locos go to Brendam Docks to deliver their Jobi logs.

At the docks, they see Cranky with a special Christmas star. Cranky tells the logging locos that he is getting ready for the Christmas party. Bash, Dash and Ferdinand want to hold their own Christmas party, which Thomas overhears. He offers to help, but the logging locos refuse it. Bash, Dash and Ferdinand see some trucks full of Christmas decorations and Bash couples up to one of them. The three Logging Locos puff away to Misty Island and on the way, they pass through Maron Station and invite Gordon and Henry to the party. Henry offers to help but, once again, the logging locos turn down the offer.

Soon, Bash, Dash and Ferdinand arrive at the Logging Station with their truck of decorations, but they do not know what to do with their load. Ferdinand suggests that they put the decorations on Ol' Wheezy. After the log loader is covered in decorations, the Logging Locos do not think it is enough and Bash and Dash leave for Sodor once more. They tell Ferdinand to stay on Misty Island and look for a Christmas tree. Ferdinand looks everywhere and then finally finds what he is looking for at the Logging Pond.

Back on Sodor, Dash couples up to another truck of decorations. On the way back to Misty Island, Bash and Dash pass through Maithwaite. They invite Percy and Toby and tell them to bring the Fat Controller to their Christmas party. Percy asks if Bash and Dash need any help and again they turn down the offer. Before long, Hee-Haw is decorated - just like Ol' Wheezy. Bash and Dash then inspect Ferdinand's "Christmas tree", which is actually a Jobi log! Then, the Logging Locos hear engine whistles; it is their Sodor friends and the Fat Controller. But Ol' Wheezy and Hee-Haw start coughing and spluttering, sending baubles and bells flying everywhere! Ol' Wheezy picks up the Jobi log tree and tosses it into the Logging Pond. The Fat Controller is not happy - he is not having fun at all. The logging locos are sad, but all of their friends offer to help make the Christmas party special.

Thomas helps Ferdinand choose a Christmas tree, Cranky lends Dash his festive star and the children give the logging locos a box of hand-made Christmas decorations. Later, the Fat Controller, dressed as Father Christmas, and the engines gather once again at the logging station for the Misty Island Christmas party. Bash and Dash thank everyone for their help in making it the best party ever.

Trivia

  • Going by production order, this is the twentieth episode of the fourteenth series and the series finale of the fourteenth series.
  • This is the last episode to be dubbed in Welsh until the All Engines Go episode, A Thomas Promise.
  • The episode was re-dubbed for Merry Winter Wish UK DVD to replace the "Winter Holidays" lines with "Christmas Holidays." Also, near the beginning of the original UK dub, the narrator says "Sir Topham Hatt's office had sparkling lights," but in the re-dubbed dub, he says "the Fat Controller's office had sparkling lights."
  • This episode marks Harold and Captain's only speaking roles in the fourteenth series.

Goofs

  • Near the beginning, although redubbed to replace "Winter Holidays" with "Christmas Holidays," when Bash and Dash ask what a Christmas Holiday party is, Bash's lips are still animated to say "Winter Holiday" instead of "Christmas Holiday." This does not happen for the rest of the episode however.
  • When Dash is coupled up to the truck of decorations, Ferdinand can be seen, even though he stayed behind on Misty Island.
  • When the engines whistled after agreeing to help the Logging Locos, steam emits out of Bash, Dash, and Ferdinand's whistles but they are not heard.
