'I certainly have fond memories of growing up with Thomas & Friends and being transported to new places through his adventures.'
April 28, 2020 - 04:53 BST Andrea Caamano Prince Harry is helping Thomas & Friends mark their 75th anniversary in the most special way – the Duke has made an on-camera introduction on their new episode, Thomas & Friends: The Royal Engine.
"I certainly have fond memories of growing up with Thomas & Friends and being transported to new places through his adventures. I am very proud to have been asked to take part in this special episode. I wish Thomas & Friends a very happy anniversary."The on-camera introduction made by Harry was recorded earlier this year, in January, with a donation made to charity.
In the 22-minute special, Sir Topham Hatt has been invited to London by Her Majesty The Queen to receive an award for distinguished service to the railway, and her son, a young Prince Charles, has asked that Thomas be the engine to bring him to the Mainland. As this is Thomas' first time visiting London he gets lost along the tracks and finds himself in all sorts of messy predicaments, but this doesn't stop him from eventually finding his way.
The special will be screened in the US on Netflix on 01 May and in the UK on Channel 5 Milkshake! at 09:05am on 02 May before it is then aired around the world
