The Brown Bear

Plot
Stephen, Bridget and Lady Hatt go to see a film being made featuring a big brown bear. Thomas is quite scared by the bear's growling, and luckily, Daisy comes to collect the Hatts after seeing the filming. When Daisy arrives at Knapford station, Bridget tells Thomas that they have a bear with them. But, Thomas' imagination gets the better of him; he thinks that they have the big brown bear itself with them! Scared, he warns all the engines in the Yard that a bear is on the loose! But, Bridget explains that she and Stephen were each given a toy bear as a present from the film crew. Thomas feels very silly that he growls angry, and the Hatts joke that Thomas sounds like a grumpy old bear!
