List of Thomas & Friends voice actors

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 68.197.16.8 (talk) at 16:31, 29 January 2015 (It looks like that a new voice actor named John Hasler is voicing Thomas in the UK version after Ben Small had left the series. In the US version, if Martin Sherman had left the series and no longer voicing Thomas, I wonder who's gonna voice him?). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Thomas & Friends (Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends until 2002) is a British children's television series, first broadcast on the ITV network on 9 October 1984. It is based on The Railway Series of books by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry and his son, Christopher Awdry. These books deal with the adventures of a group of anthropomorphised trains and road vehicles who live on the fictional Island of Sodor. The books were based on stories Wilbert told to entertain his son, Christopher during his recovery from measles. Many of the stories are based on events from Awdry's personal experience.

Until 2008 a narrator was used to as the only voice in the series. Individual voice actors were given to the UK and US dubs of the Series, following the switch to CGI in 2009.
