The most beautiful episode ever ^^ Fun Fact: a change between this and the Railway Series version, was having Thomas involved. Here, Thomas tells Duck about how fishes can bring trouble, remembering his own experience, and welp, fish trouble happens, and Duck brings up his warning to Sir Topham Hatt at the end. While in the book, there was no connection to Thomas’s incident and the crash just happens.

Happy Fishmas eve Simon and all (pun intended) another one of Thomas his best episodes boy season four has a lot of those!! Absolutely gorgeous ep and has not aged a day in almost 30 years since it premiered on Thomas’ Train and 17 other stories VHS and Thomas and Stepney and other stories also!!! Michael Angelis’ narration is again so so great here and as unlucky tug said back in 2021 this is one of the episodes of Thomas you must watch. 10/10⭐️🏆

This adaptation is one of the best, if not the best adaptation of Season 4. The adaptation’s text is so faithful to the original story. And it even extends the dialogue and builds upon its characters, e.g. Thomas actually shown to be warning Duck about fish rather than just being mentioned to have done so. Also the visuals are so stunning, e.g. the engines’s faces not being shown, the canals and woodlands at night, the camera being placed so low to the ground that it makes Henry look giant. The only nitpick I have is, how did Duck beat Henry to Wellsworth from Brendam? He probably should have had his scene at the docks replaced with another engine like Percy.

This is by no means one of my favourite episodes of Series 4 as I admire how David Mitton positioned the models off the camera and the scene of Henry departing the harbour is so spectacular and it makes it feel we are up close to him.

This is one of the most incredible episodes ever to be filmed for Series 4. I love how most of the story takes place at night. The music used at the start was just touching for the night time work and the hustle and bustle of the harbour. The scene with Henry leaving the harbour with the Flying Kipper is so incredible. It looks and feels so industrial. The part with Duck helps Henry up Gordon's Hill with the train is brilliant. There's that part where you just didn't know what to expect when the lamp fell off. The crash was superbly filmed and I loved how it was executed. David Mitton and the team really knows what to do with this episode 😀👏👍.

This might be one of the few adaptations of a Christopher Awdry story that improves upon the original, as well as one of the few adaptations with Thomas added in where his role actually makes sense.

This is easily one of my favourite Season 4 episodes. Not only are the visuals simply gorgeous beyond belief, but it has a really good story, and Mike and Junior's music is phenomenal as usual. I especially love the moment with Henry leaving the harbour. That moment is just pure cinema. Another prime example as to why Henry's my favourite character - he had so many iconic shots filmed with him. Easily one of my favourite episodes of the entire classic era. 10/10 for sure.

Percy: Got Any Nines? Thomas: Nope! Go Fish!

One of the few episode before we learn that Thomas dosen't like the smell of fish Simon.

This probably one of the underated Chris awdry story so anyway What I love about the Episode is the night time shots are Incredible in season 4 is another The Flying Kipper episode and a very nice reference to the season 1 episode Thomas goes fishing when Thomas tells Duck about his own experience with Fish and I have seen The Unlucky Tug's video about this his 2nd favourite episode and Yes definitely see why because of that shot when Henry pulls The Flying Kipper out of the Harbour at night time look so gorgeous and the scene when Duck tries bank Henry's fish train up Gordon Hill but Faulty tail falls off & hits Duck cause him to lag behind & he crashed into The Fish Van and Honestly why does The Flying Kipper always had a lots of accidents but how ever I adore shots when Edward arrive with The Breakdown Gang & The Fat Controller speaks kindley to Duck to say the accident was not his fault that is very nice but pretty sure Duck was trying to say right pickle What the Hell does that mean & That's it my review of Fish & Oh my god I love this story and Do you I ranked about This Episode 10/10 so What do you think! ?

Who is the real main character of Fish? Henry or Duck? 💚 💚 🚂 🚂 🐟

[@Dalek44]

I’d say they are both the main character. You don’t always need just one main character.
