00:00The perfect gift.
00:05It was cold and snowy on the island of Sodor, as Christmas drew near.
00:13At this time of year, Percy was always very busy.
00:18There were Christmas trees to deliver.
00:23And the extra Christmas mail.
00:30Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:36Percy also had all his regular jobs, such as...
00:45Taking scrap to the scrapyard.
00:49It wasn't quite as special as carrying Christmas trees or delivering mail,
00:56but it was still very important.
01:00Hello, Reg.
01:06Hello, Percy. Brought me some lovely scrap, have you?
01:10I certainly have.
01:12Aren't I the lucky one, then?
01:15Sorting scrap into different types is not everyone's idea of fun.
01:21But Reg loves his work.
01:23It's a bit dark and gloomy around here, isn't it, Reg?
01:28Not really, Percy. It's no different from usual.
01:31Exactly. And this is a special time of year
01:34when the rest of the island does look different from usual.
01:40All twinkly and lovely and magical.
01:47I love it here. I'm very happy. Don't you worry about me.
01:53But that's exactly what Percy did.
01:56He worried that Reg was missing out on the magic of Christmas.
02:02At the end of the day, Thomas was in his berth as Percy arrived.
02:08I think the sheds are going to look great. Don't you, Percy?
02:12Especially that Christmas tree.
02:14I think Christmas trees are my favourite Christmas thing of all.
02:18Thomas, we do have an awful lot of decorations here at Tidmouth Sheds, don't we?
02:29Yes, Percy.
02:30So, do you think anyone would mind if I took that Christmas tree over there
02:36and gave it to someone else, someone who really, really needed it,
02:41because he didn't have any Christmas decorations at all?
02:45No decorations at all?
02:48Not even a bauble.
02:50Then you should definitely take that tree and give it to your poor friend.
02:55The next day, when Percy took the scrap to the scrapyard,
03:03he took along a special gift.
03:05Good morning, Reg.
03:11You're early today, Percy.
03:13I know, because as well as all this scrap,
03:16I've brought you a special gift.
03:20Just a little something to cheer up the scrapyard and...
03:23Wow! What's that noise?
03:26Sorry, what were you saying?
03:32Something about a special gift?
03:35Reg, what happened to the tree?
03:38Oh, old trees like that show up at the scrapyard all the time,
03:43especially at this time of year.
03:45But that was a Christmas tree!
03:49Well, soon it will be something else.
03:52Wood chips can be used for all sorts of things.
03:54Nothing goes to waste at the scrapyard,
03:57so I'd better get on with it.
04:00Percy was determined that he would bring Christmas to the scrapyard.
04:05He just wasn't sure how.
04:09Then Sir Topham Hatt asked Percy to take the carol singers
04:13to the town square for a Christmas sing-along.
04:17That gave Percy an idea.
04:24Oh, hello again, Percy.
04:32I wasn't expecting to see you here again so soon.
04:35Not that I mind.
04:36If you've brought me some lovely scrap.
04:39I've brought you something better than that, Reg.
04:42Better than scrap?
04:44Yes, much better.
04:47A one, a two, a one, two, three.
04:50On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
04:54a partridge and a pear tree.
04:58On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
05:02two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.
05:07Oh, what was that?
05:13What are you doing?
05:15You were supposed to be listening.
05:18I was trying to cheer you up.
05:20I'm sorry, Percy, but I'm not sure I need cheering up.
05:25And, well, to be honest, I'm really rather busy.
05:29Okay.
05:30Sorry, Reg.
05:33Percy was sorry that Reg didn't like the Christmas choir.
05:36But Percy wasn't a giving up kind of engine.
05:42He was still determined to make Reg's scrapyard
05:45come alive with Christmas cheer.
05:51That's it!
05:52I need to give Reg a Christmas present.
05:56Something he really loves.
05:59But what?
06:01Percy chugged all around the island of Seoul,
06:06trying to find the perfect gift for his friend at the scrapyard.
06:10But no matter how hard he tried,
06:17he just couldn't think of anything.
06:25The next evening, Percy rolled into the scrapyard,
06:30a little quieter than usual.
06:32Evening, Percy.
06:34Deary me, what's the matter?
06:37A bit down in the dumps, are you?
06:39Oh, Reg.
06:41Tidmouth Sheds is all decorated,
06:43and the whole island looks lovely and special.
06:46But you're stuck here,
06:48in the Sodor scrapyard.
06:50And I couldn't even think of a present to give to you.
06:53But, Percy, you've brought me exactly what I wanted.
06:58More lovely scrap?
07:00Yes, more lovely scrap.
07:03And most particularly,
07:05this is just what I need.
07:08Reg, your Christmas tree looks fantastic.
07:24Ah, I'm not done yet.
07:30Oh, Reg, that is amazing.
07:34I told you, nothing round here goes to waste.
07:39Now, before you go,
07:41you said something about gifts.
07:44Oh, yes, that.
07:46I'm so sorry, but I didn't get you...
07:49No, no.
07:50I have a gift for you.
07:58Thanks, Reg.
08:00Well, after seeing my Christmas decorations,
08:03I thought you might feel rather left out.
08:07Merry Christmas, Percy.
08:10Thanks, Reg.
08:12Merry Christmas to you, too.
08:28Merry Christmas, Percy.
08:30Merry Christmas, Thomas.
08:32Merry Christmas, everyone.
