The trope of the Eleventh Doctor frightening off enemies with a speech about how awesome he is is much more nuanced than people realize. It is on some level a trope that's meant to be a cool power fantasy, and it does that well, but it's also a destructive power fantasy. It only actually works for The Eleventh Doctor in The Eleventh Hour (although it also works for Ten in Forest Of The Dead and Twelve in Extremis), and it's not even for the main threat of the episode. Which firstly disproves the complaint that The Eleventh Doctor only brags about how cool he is and never actually does anything cool, but also shows it's not as effective a strategy as it seems. In The Pandorica Opens, it's ultimately pointless and (counting other Doctors besides Eleven) in World Enough And Time it fails to protect Bill. The Doctor does it as much as an ego boost as a viable strategy.
It also shows that The Doctor is the kind of person who can frighten people, which is somewhat worrisome. He's supposed to be a symbol of hope, but is instead a symbol of fear. He's supposed to be a pacifist, but is instead a fearsome warrior. The Doctor ignores this for a while because The Eleventh Doctor is trying to repress all his negative emotions, including his self-loathing. Remember, the only reason we know about the self-loathing is because it was externalized as the dream lord, not because The Doctor willingly admitted it. Repressing his fears about his dark side allows him to indulge in it. Compare the Tenth Doctor's mass murder in The Runaway Bride where he gazes sadly, to the Eleventh Doctor's mass murder in Day Of The Moon where he is sadistically gleeful because he has repressed his guilt.
This all comes to a head in a good man goes to war when the silence's fear of The Doctor drives them to kidnap Melody and River calls him out on what he's become. This is why The Doctor decides to fake his own death and erase records of himself in The Wedding Of River Song, to distance himself from the corrupted symbol he has created. The realization that he's enough of a warrior to gain this reputation is part of what causes him to question if he's a good man once he regenerates into the Twelfth Doctor.

Space: 1999 Stars Barbara Bain & Nick Tate Goes Board Documentary About Sci-Fi Show’s Legendary Spacecraft
Actress Barbara Bain, star of the British sci-fi series Space: 1999, is preparing to board an upcoming documentary about the Eagle, the famed spacecraft at the heart of the show that ran from 1975-1977.
Bain will appear in The Eagle Has Landed as will Nick Tate, her cast mate from Space: 1999. The documentary includes the participation of several other notable figures: Apollo XVI astronaut Charles Duke Jr., Academy Award-winning visual effects artist Bill George (Blade Runner, Star Trek), and Brian Johnson, the VFX artist on Space: 1999 whose work is said to have influenced Star Wars. The film is being directed and produced by Jeffrey Morris, who also hosts the documentary.
The Eagle Has Landed “explores the cross-generational impact of the iconic vessel” in the series that also starred Martin Landau. According to a press release, the film “showcases never-before-seen archival footage” and will be released in time for the 50th anniversary of Space: 1999’s debut, in 2025.
“Space: 1999 appeared on TV a few short years after the world watched Neil Armstrong take the first steps on the moon,” Morris noted in a statement. “The show’s unforgettable Eagle inspired a generation to envision a future in space and is still doing so decades later. The question we explore is ‘why?’ What is it about this imaginary craft that has captured and held imaginations for nearly 50 years?
Morris’s FutureDude Entertainment is producing the documentary in partnership with Zero Point Zero Production Inc. Anne Marie Gillen is a producer on the project, along with Morris. The film is written by Morris and Fredrick Haugen. Morris is represented by Espada Entertainment.
Space: 1999 ran for a total of 48 episodes, with Bain and Landau in all of them as, respectively, Dr. Helena Russell and Commander John Koenig (the actors were married to each other at the time; they had previously co-starred together in Mission: Impossible).
The show revolved around the denizens of Moonbase Alpha, scientific researchers living on the moon whose existence was threatened by a nuclear explosion, which rocketed the moon out of Earth’s orbit. Tate, an Australian-born actor, played pilot Alan Carter on 42 of the show’s 48 episodes. Originally, his character was to be killed off in the premiere episode, a casualty of the nuclear explosion, but producers Gerry Anderson and Sylvia Anderson liked his work and expanded his role.
“Hovering above the Moon in one of Alpha’s Eagle spacecraft, Alan Carter is an observer to this holocaust, watching helplessly as the Moon spins out into space,” according to a synopsis published by the Catacombs.Space1999.net website. “Sacrificing his only chance to return home, Carter decides to give chase to the runaway Moon, joining his friends on the endless intergalactic journey.”
Tate told the website, “I didn’t have to dig too deeply with this character. Alan Carter was all the things I was as a young man: friendly, happy-go-lucky, someone who loved adventure and accepted a challenge.”
Ian McShane, Joan Collins, and Leo McKern were among actors who appeared in single episodes of Space: 1999.

Patlabor is On Lock
12 Days of Aniblogging 2023, Day 3
While Gundam is the most recognizable mecha anime I got into this year, most of my time was really spent working my way through the Patlabor franchise, and it’s quickly become one of my favorites. I’ve always loved the quiet moments in mecha shows, which makes sense considering I started with Macross and live for the bridge bunny gossip and off-duty downtown hangouts. Patlabor is built with this downtime at its core, operating with more of a slice of life mentality than anything else.
A lovable cast is crucial for making this work. Thankfully, Noa Izumi is a wonderful and unique protagonist, a scrappy soft butch who’s in it for the eroticism of the machine. The first Patlabor opening is a love letter from Noa to her mecha, and I get it! The AV-98 Ingram is an iconic design, with its asymmetric bunny ear antennae and shoulder lights and comically oversized revolver that requires the right hand to pop out in order to draw, exposing the arm wiring in the process. This is a show clearly written by first-generation mecha otaku, and plenty of time is dedicated to showing how the Labors have to be transported and recharged, how the movement software depends on reinforcement learning, showing off corporate model revisions, and of course repairs in the hangar.
Going back to the human characters, Noa’s work partner Asuma is clearly the more passive one within their dynamic, and it’s sweet to see that played out sincerely. And then there’s Kanuka Clancy, the stern weirdo badass from New York who’s constantly swearing and dropping one-liners in English. She’s the obvious breakthrough character of the show, and also the perfect opposites-attract pairing for Noa if you’re the kind of person whose yuri meter went off the charts during their drinking contest episode. Most of Patlabor’s cast seem fairly one-note at first, and one of the great tricks of the show is giving them just a little bit more depth than you would expect. Pretty much everyone, even the most jokey characters, eventually get a standalone episode or two that further sketches them out and offers real interiority. Captain Goto is another fan-favorite, and it’s definitely his mixture of laziness and wicked perceptiveness that does it, plus his main character billing in the movies.
SV2 may be a law enforcement unit, but this really isn’t a police procedural at the end of the day. These guys are the bum department out in the sticks who everyone hates, and the upside of that is that SV2 gets stuck with the oddest of jobs instead of cop work. Sometimes that’s dealing with a runaway military prototype, other times it’s arguing with the insurance company. The best kind of episodes are the ones that take almost entirely on base as everyone tries to solve a problem of their own making, like an Ingram falling into the sea or the mechanics getting into a fight with the only restaurant that delivers to them.
A main plot does eventually emerge, with a shadowy company developing a mysterious jet-black Labor piloted by a child who is the girlish boy to Noa Izumi’s boyish girl. The Griffon is sleek and curvy and has superiority in the water and air – it’s a machine designed to defeat Ingrams, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Yoji Shinkawa looked here when designing Metal Gear RAY. Automation is a fundamental ideological enemy of mecha – faceless mass production and artificial intelligence mean an end to the era of personal combat. Even Patlabor, a warless series, dips its toes into this idea in the later episodes, with Noa and the mechanics alike worrying that the neural networks in their new Labor models will make them redundant.
Overall, this show is hilarious and sweet and clearly loved by an older generation of otaku. So why didn’t I hear about it earlier? Partly it’s on me for not hanging out with the right mecha fans online for a while. But if I had to guess, it’s also because Patlabor is one of those works that’s straightforwardly, unobjectionably good in a way where it already says everything there is to be said about it. You can have near-infinite arguments about Zeon ideology or mobile suit powerscaling online, but there’s only so many times you can say “yeah, Noa Izumi, love that girl” precisely because everyone agrees. It can also be hard to pitch things by their vibes in a genre known for adrenaline and intrigue. Patlabor’s vibes, for the record, are immaculate.
I'm probably gonna be chasing the high of cel-era sunsets forever
Mecha’s also a bit looked down upon from the outside. Anything that makes it into the larger conversation has to be understood as “elevated” or a “genre deconstruction”, even if the very first Mobile Suit Gundam is already about Amuro’s trauma and PTSD from being made into a child soldier. This elevation is actually happening to the second Patlabor movie as we speak - it’s becoming increasingly discussed as a major component of Mamoru Oshii’s filmography, divorced from its source series and instead compared to his subsequent Ghost in the Shell movie. Funnily enough, Oshii’s contributions to the Patlabor TV show are actually the more lighthearted gag episodes.
A lot of recent Patlabor retrospectives have drawn attention to the artist’s collective Headgear, established and owned by the series creators so they would be able to retain the rights for the franchise. This structure is fairly unique for the anime industry and probably only makes sense for established creatives, but it does seem to have worked out great for them, providing financial stability and strong creative control over the franchise. This allowed Patlabor to thrive in the relative wasteland of late 80s TV anime, a time when even Gundam had fled to the OVA market.
That being said, it does take Patlabor switching back to OVAs to truly spread its wings. The New Files are a conclusion and continuation of the TV series that are willing to move at their own pace, resulting in some dramatic and surprisingly thoughtful stories. It’s genuinely touching to watch Goto and Nagumo try and fail to communicate their feelings for one another in a very restrained episode as thick with long-stewing emotions as it is empty space. Of course, the very next episode has half the cast get stuck in the sewer labyrinth underneath their base and there’s a bunch of Wizardry references. Oh, Oshii.
The Patlabor movies fully lean into this melancholy and uncertainty, and it’s a welcome evolution for the series. The first movie still ends with an all-out action set piece in a half-built mecha factory that stands in for the Tower of Babel, but the second one stays serious the whole time through, going as far as pivoting to a more realistic artsyle. It’s a challenging film. The politics are all-encompassing but fairly straightforward, as Oshii effectively infodumps a presentation on the postwar history of the JSDF throughout. Instead, what the makes the movie so difficult is its willingness to face the end of an era – the Cold War is over, the bubble economy has popped, and the former members of SV2 have all gone their separate ways. The conditions that have created Patlabor, both internal and external to the show, have dissipated. And the movie makes it clear by having the military stage a raid on SV2’s headquarters, tearing their Labors to shreds with gunfire in a beautifully animated act of desecration.
After watching her be a lovable mecha dweeb for 50 episodes, it hurts a bit to hear Noa Izumi say that she doesn’t want to be that girl obsessed with robots for the rest of her life! These characters are growing in such a way that will remove them from the focus of the narrative, and it’s a movie about letting go just as much as it is about looking towards an uncertain personal and national future. I love Miyazaki’s Porco Rosso, but the fact that Oshii put this out just one year later paints a delicious contrast between the two directors with regards to escapism versus reality with regards to militarism. There's some great interviews from the era where they're just taking potshots at each other about all this.

I think part of the problem that I have with this season besides the lack of episodes and some questionable writing is how they built up the Doctor and Ruby both individually and as a relationship.
On the very first episode of most companions we are introduced to them before we basically are introduced to them via the doctor. I mean we learn about Rose and her life via her job before we ever learn about her via the Doctor. Donna is essentially introduced as an accidental runaway bride before we see her through the Doctors eyes. Martha gets introduced as a medical student long before we see her become a companion. Amy is an exception here because she essentially gets introduced with the doctor. But Rory on the other hand gets introduced as a nurse before he is introduced as Amy's boyfriend. Bill is shown as a university student before she is companion. The one exception through it all is Clara but that's another story.
I mean even the first season of Classic Who introduces Barbara and Ian as teachers before they are considered possible companions.
With Ruby this isn't the case. She is introduced with the Doctor from the very beginning. We don't get to meet her before the Doctor we meet her because the Doctor already detected something odd about her.
We don't meet Ruby as a person before she is already linked with the doctor.
And it continues that way the entire series. It feels like we are not meeting the Doctor or Ruby on their own but rather we only see them as an entity which just doesn't work.
The reason why we grow to love the companions is because they can and will shine in Solo scenes.
Rose essentially wanders off on the second episode to discover the ship and let's us meet both her and Nine on their own.
Martha in Gridlock delivers amazing scenes as the Doctors solo companion.
Donna has an incredible moment in Partners in Crime.
Amy has this amazing story in the Beast Below where we see her on her own. We also see the first solo scenes of 11 where he is just on his own being the Doctor.
Bill shines in Thin Ice for her own exploring.
I haven't seen 13 run yet truly but from the scenes I have seen we also get introduced to Yaz before the Doctor meets her. And I think that perspective makes a difference when you get to know a companion on their own before you get to know them when the Doctor meets them.
While we always see the Doctor and their companion together what makes most of these duos so great is that we also get to know them individually. We see the companions explore on their own, solve problems on their own and adapt to travelling with the doctor. We get to know the Doctor, get to see them be themselves and shine in those solo scenes.
But it feels like Ruby and the Doctor are always "Ruby and the Doctor" and never really Ruby and the Doctor. This gets worse by the fact that essentially the first time we have a Ruby focused episode it's 73 yards but we have never even really had a true solo scene where we got to see Ruby be her own person. The first time it feels like we really see both of them be themselves on their own is in Rogue and that is essentially the last episode before the huge finale so it just doesn't work..
And the small solo scenes we do have from the Doctor truly just lack the writing to feel alive in many cases it feels like. The space baby scene where he talks about being unique is great but just feels a bit flat in the context of a rather weak episode. Boom, an episode that feels like one of the best, still lacks a bit of general context and would have probably hit much harder had they just made it two parts because it feels like a rushed through plot where the whole "I am a much bigger boom than you bargend for" feels like a first glimpse into the Doctor but then gets overshadowed by this focus on everything else.
The lack of individual scenes leads to the whole relationship between the Doctor and Ruby feeling superficial and falling a bit flat which again isn't helped by most other week points of the season.
But I truly think that from the introduction we were missing something crucial that the season never managed to make up because we never got to see Ruby and the Doctor exploring on their own to show their individual characteristics.

If you were to ask ten British people who grew up watching Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends in the 1990's what their favourite Thomas home video release was as a child, then chances are that nine would say that it was the 1997 release Chases, Races & Runaways. That video featured 18 episodes from the first four series and was billed as "18 episodes of mischief and mishaps". Although I never owned that tape myself, I can understand why it's gained such a well-loved reputation. If you look at the episode selection on the video, then you can see that it comprises some of series 1-4's best episodes and unlike certain other bumper special videos, cough Biggest Party Video Ever cough, it puts all of the episodes in the correct order, showing the evolution of TTTE across it's first four series. Alas, great home media releases like this are unheard of these days.

2112's Rant Time #7 (Review Special FINALE): We're gonna need a plumber for all these LEAKS. (SPOILERS FOR DOCTOR WHO: THE GIGGLE INBOUND)
It's time. This is the FINAL special rant time. After this one, the rant times will be actual rants again, and these special ones will become their own thing. I'll be going into more detail about how that's gonna go later, but for now... It's time for
The Giggle
This is the last of the 3 Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials, and honestly....
It's my most favorite out of all of them.
It starts with a man named Charles Banerjee. He's working with John Logie Baird, the man who first demonstrated the idea of television in 1927's London. Charles walk's into NEIL PATRICK HARRIS'S TOY STORE, as he is looking for a puppet to use for the television demonstration (as using a human test subject would cause injuries, since the lights are so bright they could cause fire). He finds one named Stooky Bill. Neil Patrick Harris says that by purchasing Bill, Charles is leaving Bill's family behind, which makes Neil very sad. Charles pays for the puppet, then goes set up the demonstration with ol' Johnny boy. The puppet starts to burn, it's jaw drops (because it saw that Doctor Who was genuinely good again), and a laughter- sorry- GIGGLE is heard. Intro rolls.
Off the track for a bit, but this did actually happen (well, sort of). The first proper demonstration of the television DID involve an actual puppet named Stooky Bill. As for why a puppet and not a human, according to a nice convenient article (that just came out today) from the Radio Times, the main reason (apart from the extreme heat of the lights) for using a puppet was due to humans having bad contrast. However, due to Stooky Bill's painted face, he had way better contrast (and could withstand a few pesky bright lights with nothing more than a charred face). The article, written by Morgan Jefferey (I believe) is a pretty nice read. If you wanna check it out for yourself, you can find it right down here ↓ (Yea I cite my sources. My mother's very proud).
Anyways, let's talk about-
NEIL PATRICK HARRIS AS THE TOY-MAKER
This was probably my favorite part of the episode tbh (apart from a think I won't talk about right now because SPOILIOPS). Neil absolutely KILLS it as The Toy-maker. I'd love to say more, but what else is there to say? Neil was fucking GREAT.
Anyway's, The Doctor and Donna are trying to figure out what's going on, as U.N.I.T. drops in and takes them to HQ. There, they meet up with Kate Lethbridge-Stewart. Then The Doctor catches up with 6th Doctor companion Melanie, who is now working for U.N.I.T. The story goes that 2 days ago, a signal from god knows where is broadcasting someone's GIGGLE. This giggle is infact Stooky Bill's laughter, which had apparently infected all TV/Digital displays. iPads, iPhones, computer monitors, smart watches, you name it. If it was a screen that display images and videos, Stooky Bill was there (as The Doctor gracefully showed). They suspect that it's coming from a Korean (I think) sattelite. The Doctor Gives permission to shoot it down. After this, he asks Shirley (the wheelchair girl from The Star Beast) to find out when all this first went down. She tell's him, and The Doctor and Donna go on one more adventure.
They go to 1925, and spot Neil Patrick Harris's Toystore. They go inside, and The Toymaker makes a balls joke (really classy stuff). The Doctor recognizes The Toymaker, and then he walks into his curtain of dematerialization as he disappears. A Scooby Doo ass runaround occurs, as The Doctor finds a room with our old friend Charles. He had apparently played a game with the toymaker, and was turned into a puppet. We see a giant Neil Patrick Harris in the sky, holding up ol' Chuck by marionette strings. As The Doctor looks back at Charles, he sees himself as the puppet. The Doctor runaways in fear, Donna beats up some other puppets, they find eachother, and BOOM! The Toy-Maker appears before them. He fills Donna in on the different companions that've been with The Doctor since he wiped her memories, specifically the ones who died (so no chibnall companions). And each time he states cause of death, The Doctor corrects him.
They then play the first game: a simple game of higher or lower with a cut deck of cards. The Toymaker wins, though The Doctor argues that since he won first they should go best 2 out of 3. Then The Toymaker travels to 2023 where their next game will supposedly take place.
This scene is absolutely perfect, and I teared up a bit when The Toymaker mentioned Amy, Clara, and Bill.
Our Tardis duo returns to present day, and they warn U.N.I.T. that Neil Patrick Harris is coming, an- Holy shit he's already here and
OH MY GOD NEIL PATRICK HARRIS IS SERVING SERIOUS CUNT
The Doctor and crew then spot the toymaker outside manning the BFG 10K as he threatens to kill everyone or something. The Doctor then says that neil's fight is with him. Neil Patrick Harris then shoots David Tennant in the chest. He starts to regenerate, as Donna and Mel grab on to his arms.
The regeneration energy disappears, as The Doctor feels funny. It's going different... too different. ..
So um... remember the split regeneration "leak"? Yea um...
.
.
.
It was real
youtube
Yea split regeneration was real, though it didn't turn out as bad as I thought it would. So David and Ncuti Gatwa (who's in his pants and no one seems to point it out... what?) challenge The Toymaker to one final game: the first game: a game of catch. The Doctors win and 14nant's prize is him casting Neil Patrick Harris out of existence. He turns into cardboard and is dropped into his toybox. Afterwards, 14nant is sad because he doesnt want to part ways with the tardis. So Ncuti, with the remaining power of the toymaker, grabs a big clown hammer and smacks the tardis, creating a second one. They part ways, and Ncuti Gatwa goes into the wild blue yonder. 14nant and his new family of the Noble-Temples have dinner which makes me cry GOD DAMMIT THIS EPISODE WAS SO FUCKING GOOD DOCTOR WHO IS FUCKING BACK.
So yea. This was one of my favorite episodes in a LONG damn time. I loved pretty much every second of it. 10/10.
Tune in next time for... um... well before I go, actually, about these review rants becoming their own thing. Let's talk about that.
These review type posts will now be called
2112's Journeys
In these, I'll be talking about my experiences with different multimedia franchises (books, movies, shows, games, etc.). I'll mostly talk about individual entries, giving my thoughts/reviewing them, and maybe even a bit of history on them. This was something I've wanted to do for a while, albeit in video form rather than text form. But I can't really write for shit and I don't want to make a shitly written video, so I feel by doing them in text form here first I could improve on my writing skills, which would then eventually lead me to adapting those written posts into video form.
So yea that's it, see ya next time for
2112's Journeys #1: Doctor Who: The Church on Ruby Road

Remembering actor and playwright Frank Williams (The Vicar) who passed away June 26th, 2022, aged 90.
He cited The Royal Train as his favourite television episode of Dad's Army, and in an interview in The Express, recalled a memorable comic caper involving a runaway train and some frantic work on a pump-trolley;
"…We didn’t do health and safety much in those days and it was a bit hazardous at times…At one point, the train seemed to be getting perilously close. We weren’t sure the driver could see us and I remember Bill (Pertwee) suggesting that if it got any nearer it would be best to jump clear…"
In this audio short, supplied by author and television historian Oliver Crocker, Frank Williams remembers arriving on location for the 1971 feature film, and marvelling that Chalfont St Giles seemed not to have changed a bit since the war…
youtube
In 1971, Columbia Pictures commissioned a cinema adaptation of the hit BBC sitcom, Dad's Army. It was directed by Norman Cohen, and written by the television series creators and writers, Jimmy Perry and David Croft. The producer was John R Sloan, whose credits also included The Odessa File, No Sex Please, We're British, To Sir With Love, and Force 10 From Navarone.
The production was not an altogether happy experience for the television ensemble. Perry and Croft were frustrated that the director failed to understand that the comedy was as much in the reaction as the funny line, and the cast, Ian Lavender recalled, were upset by the treatment of the 'back row' actors, who formed the rear ranks of the Home Guard parade during the television episodes. Although they rarely had a line, the same actors were used from one series to the next, so were considered part of the cast. For the film, they were classed as extras and treated accordingly.
Mrs Pike, who was played for television by Janet Davies, was recast with Liz Fraser, who had a higher cinema profile and a 'less homely' image, against the objections of Perry and Croft and the disappointment of the cast. Another bone of contention was the location; the exteriors were shot in and around Chalfont St Giles rather than the series regular location of Thetford.
John Laurie was injured while handling a horse being used in the film, and perhaps reflecting the general mood of the cast and deteriorating relationship with the production crew, Arthur Lowe drove the prop master mad by complaining incessantly about the weight of his pistol. (He ended up taking matters into his own hands, found a local toyshop which he entered in full uniform, and purchased a plastic one).
The end result performed well at the box office, and there was talk of a sequel, Dad's Army and the Secret U-Boat Base, possibly to star Laurence Olivier, but this never eventuated.
Director Norman Cohen went on to direct three Confessions sex comedies, which probably made him one of the most financially successful directors in 1970s British Cinema. He passed away in 1983, aged 47.
The television series continued until 1977, and there were also radio and stage adaptations. In 2016, a cinema adaptation starred Toby Jones as Captain Mainwaring, Bill Nighy as Sergeant Wilson, and Sarah Lancashire as Mrs Pike. Ian Lavender had a cameo as the Brigadier, but the only original cast member to appear as his own character was the Vicar, played by Frank Williams, who passed away aged 90, in June 2022. He was afforded a standing ovation by the entire cast and crew when he arrived on set for his brief scene.

Bella and Beauford (your version of Beau) are twins, similar features (brown eyes), similar chip on their shoulder, similar flowery language, and Ed can't read either of their minds and both smell like grade A beefcakes. Both move to Forks. What kind of mess do you think will go down? 030 Does Eddie boi get the harem he's never wanted? How much can we destroy the B&B team self esteem? Find out on today's episode of the What if Muffin chronicles~! - Sw
Beauford is a reoccurring guest star on this blog.
Think Bella directly plastered onto a boy: absurdly pretty, still clumsy, still terribly introverted and awful socially, and smells like heroin to one Edward Cullen.
With that, onto your question
The Rules
To set some ground rules that are set in the post, I'm presuming both, somehow, are Edward's singer. Now, given that it's Bella and Beauford (fraternal twins), I'd say this is highly unlikely. Singers are rare, and Charlie and Renee don't notably smell like high quality heroin to Edward. More likely, Bella would be the singer, and Beauford would just smell generally nice (but not murder all of Biology nice).
It's also unlikely they'd have the same exact gift, or a gift that expresses itself in the same manner, blocking Edward out of their minds.
But the rules are set, both are Edward's singer, and both have Bella's absurdly powerful gift.
They're for all intents and purposes the same fucking person that somehow got stuffed in two different gendered bodies. The real genesis of this AU: Renee was abducted by aliens while pregnant and her unborn child experimented on. Beauford is, in fact, Bella's identical twin. Beauford is actually Bella's male clone grown in the womb.
After Bella and Beauford reach sexual maturity they'll be beamed back up into space and put into a zoo on Traflamador. (Except not because that would derail this post... The test pilot on Traflamador blew up their planet before Bella and Beauford could phone home. It's not important.)
Bella, Beauford, and the Time Before Forks
Bella and Beauford are probably frightfully codependent for a few reasons that go by the name of Renee. Renee's still out to lunch parenting, and it falls to Bella and Beauford to take care of adult responsibilities from a very young age.
Bella and Beauford come home from school to an empty house, are the ones to go grocery shopping, pay the bills, pay the taxes, do the laundry, pretty much anything that has "adult responsibility" stamped on it.
As a result, they don't really have time to make friends with kids out of school, and they quickly realize that they're the only ones they can depend on in their lives. More, they're the only ones who get each other on any level.
They're both social outcasts, both not what their mother wanted, both have to deal with their mother, and if they ever get in trouble then it's their sibling that they're going to call. Because no one else will ever be there.
I imagine both Bella and Beauford cling to each other tightly with both hands.
Which, of course, makes things weird.
There's getting along with your twin sibling then there's... only getting along with your twin sibling.
Bella and Beauford have lunch together, by themselves, every day in Phoenix. They partner together on everything and are very displeased if they're forced into a group project with anyone else. They participate in all the same activities and if one isn't allowed to do it then the other quits (yes, Beauford tried to get into ballet class, when Renee put her foot down Bella quit right then and there). They wear each other's clothes, if they can't, then those clothes never get worn (Bella never wears the few dresses in her closet). They actually remember their made up secret twin language and lapse into it accidentally from time to time. They're anxious when they're not in the same classes and meet up after every single class to walk down the hallways together. Rather than have any friends, most of their free time is spent at home reading the same books in the same room. They don't even talk about how amazing Heathcliff is, because they know the other knows.
I imagine they channel such the twins from The Shining. Absurdly good looking, beautiful, kids but good god what is wrong with them?
The Decision to Move
When Phil enters the picture seriously, he's not just a new boyfriend, Bella and Beauford sit down to discuss their options. Neither is quite sure how they feel about Phil.
He's awfully young, but he seems to be good for Renee, and is actually capable of paying his taxes (unlike Renee). He can probably be depended upon not to run off and to make sure Renee is taken care of.
However what about Bella and Beau?
With Bella and Beau going to school, they can't travel across the country every few weeks following Phil. Now, in theory, Renee could abandon them to follow Phil. This wouldn't make much of a difference in their daily lives (might, in fact, make things easier in a way as then Beau/Bella can just handle all the cooking rather than Renee even attempting to). However, Renee would never want to admit she's been leaving her kids to their own devices for years, and would feel horribly guilty to leave them behind.
As it is, they've already told Renee she can go on and travel with Phil and she refused, stating she had to be there for her kids.
There's also that Phil keeps trying to bond with Beau especially. As if he thinks it will be easier to bond with the teenage stepson vs. the stepdaughter. That hasn't been going well, Beau would like to avoid that if at all possible.
On the other hand... Forks, wet, cold, and being the children of the police chief's runaway bride.
Ultimately, the pair come to the same decision Bella came to in canon. They want their mother to be happy, feel desperately like third wheels, and if making Renee happy necessitates going to Forks then to Forks they shall go.
At least they'll have each other, and in the end, that's all that really matters.
Arriving in Forks
Bella and Beau arrive in Forks and receive the same reception they would otherwise. But more so. Holy god, the high school population says, it's the Cullens 2.0.
Eerily pale, beautiful, siblings, who are both sensitive intellectuals (and are also weirdly incestuous acting). All the guys want to date Bella and all the girls want to date Beau (some vice versa but they're not admitting that in a public high school in 2005).
The guys (Mike, Tylor, Eric, etc.) aren't all that thrilled by Beau's presence, he's major competition and day one is attracting all the attention. However, they see him as a way to get an in with Bella, he can set them up on a date and put in a good word. If they become his best friend, they have an excuse to go to his house, where Bella will be.
The girls (even Lauren who was initially very pissed off about Bella's sudden popularity) are much the same. Bella's overrated, but good god, that beautiful brother of hers. If they become Bella's best friend, they can have sleep overs, and might be able to see Beau without a shirt on. No matter Bella's stuffy personality, that hot brother is worth it.
Lunch that first day, as a result, is even more awful than it was in canon. Bella and Beauford, while generally oblivious about themselves, are very observant when it becomes to the behavior of others regarding their sibling.
They have an emergency meeting in the truck after school and come to the same conclusion: Bella/Beau, this entire school of hicks wants in your pants. Dump them all.
Both Bella and Beauford end the day supremely annoyed but reconfirm their commitment to this Forks plan. Beau predicts than in six months they'll be losers again and they'll go back to having lunch by themselves.
But what about the Cullens?
Edward, The Cullens, and Biology
As in canon, both Beauford and Bella notice the entrance of the alien procession into the cafeteria and ask "what the fuck?"
Nobody's thrilled about answering, because no one wants to lose Bella/Beauford to the Cullens of all people (the girls sigh with relief as, at least for them, all the lady Cullens seem to be dating one of the other guys. Beau is safe. The possibility of Edward/Beau is one they dare not contemplate in those five seconds.)
Still, Jessica reluctantly gives the run down. These are the Cullens, they moved in two years ago, are absurdly wealthy, beautiful, and supposedly not actually related. They're all dating each other. No, seriously, they are. Except the hot ginger, Edward, but don't bother because he's an ass.
Both Bella and Beauford think Jessica doth protest too much about Edward and internally give the Cullens the same bisexual Bella ranking: Rosalie, Edward (after a bit of thought), and then the rest of them.
Edward, for his own part, notes that he can't seem to hear either's thoughts. Weird. He concludes that the pair are highly overrated and he can't believe the school's so agog over the pair of them. Stupid teenagers.
Then Biology happens.
The pair open the door and good god, Edward Cullen is a demon. Luckily for them, they have each other. There may be an open seat next to Edward Cullen but Bella and Beauford go "NOPE". You see, teacher, we always sit together. No, really, we ALWAYS sit together.
The teacher is weirded out but it's so weird he actually has nothing to say to that. There's only one immediately open seat anyway, and two new students, so they're clearly in trouble with seating arrangements anyway. So he says, "Um, sure, go sit with Angela I guess." Angela is now in an overcrowded table with both Bella and Beauford, her original partner gleefully goes to sit with hottie Edward (then is in dismay sitting with Edward because this guy looks terrifying today). The twins, throughout Biology, are staring down Edward Cullen.
Edward, of course, has smelled the scent of the gods and is going through his personal hell on earth. He devises his many schemes of how he's going to murder Biology before he can get to the pair of them (Angela, for the record, gets smashed into a wall for the honor of being in Edward's way). Then, he doesn't know which he'd start on, he can't tell which scent comes from which. He tells himself he'll toss a coin, heads the boy goes first, then tails the girl.
Still, thinking of Carlisle's sad, disapproving, face as Edward massacres a room filled with children allows Edward to hold on through Biology. He'll murder them after school. Then of course he's able to clear his head and flees to Alaska.
In the meantime, thanks to being hyperaware of their sibling, and now having someone to talk to and confirm their suspicions with: Edward Cullen is Ted Bundy. This guy is creepy, dangerous, and in that moment it looked as if he was going to kill one or both of them. Bella/Beauford would be alright, though disappointed, if they were murdered then left in a dumpster. But their sibling die and meet that same awful fate? Not ever allowed to happen.
Bella and Beau have the world's most tense drive home and tense night taking turns taking guard and sleeping in the same room. Every time one questions if they're, maybe, just maybe, a little paranoid about this, the other confirms that "NOPE, THAT DUDE WAS SCARY".
They can't tell Charlie, he wouldn't believe them and they have no evidence, but when Edward tries to climb through their window maybe one of them will get in a good hit with the baseball bat (they won't, they're both debilitatingly clumsy).
The next day, to their confusion and relief, Edward Cullen isn't at school. He's not there the day after that either, or the day after that...
Beau and Bella start to relax, if only a little bit.
Edward, Alaska, and the Prodigal Son Returns
Edward in Alaska calms down and goes through the same thought process he did in canon. He keeps picturing the twins' faces, his obsession beginning to blossom, and convinces himself that he can't let these unremarkable humans get in the way of his life and his family.
After a week of brooding, much to Carlisle's horror, Edward returns to Forks and goes straight back to school. Specifically, he wants to do damage control with the twins and see just how much they actually noticed.
This goes worse than in canon.
First, Edward has to approach their shared table with Angela like a loser. There, Bella and Beau clearly don't want to talk at him, at all, and both clearly vividly remember exactly what happened last Biology class.
Edward barely gets a word in before he has to go to his seat. When he notices Bella, Beau, and Angela get their lab done as quickly as him (thanks to Bella and Beau), he tries again.
Bella and Beau both ask to go to the bathroom. (Yes, teacher, at the same time. Don't question this.) They don't come back. Edward, after ten minutes, also goes to the bathroom. He finds the pair in their giant, red, truck in the parking lot, deep in conversation (trying to figure out what the fuck is up with Edward Cullen).
He approaches them again, being as charming as possible. This has the opposite effect. Directed towards only them, Beau/Bella would probably let this slide. Directed towards Beloved Sibling, their "DANGER, WILL ROBINSON" sirens are blaring in their head. Beau floors it, and the pair tear out of the parking lot as fast as the truck will take them, they're telling Charlie they're taking a sick day. What will they do next Biology class? FUCK IF THEY KNOW.
Edward, standing in the parking lot with his mouth open, feels very very embarrassed and ashamed. He is a man eating demon and these two are perfectly aware of it. The rest of the Cullens find him there not long after, they find this both sad and hilarious.
Bella and Beau Get Hit by a Van
Well, this would all be well and good. Edward tells himself that if the pair are so determined to avoid him then he'll just avoid them. Problem solved. More, the pair don't seem to be chatterboxes, there's no weird rumors spreading about Edward Cullen or his siblings. At least, no more than usual.
Instead, it seems that everyone's trying to ask the twins to the dance, and are very confused when the twins say that they're going with each other. Sibling policy. You see. (They don't see, nobody sees, this is weird.)
Then it happens. Bella nearly gets hit by a van, Edward saves her, with Beau as a full not-concussed witness. FUCK. Bella and Beau travel to the hospital, Edward driving along behind them, and then after Carlisle checks Bella out they have their awkward talk.
Bella wants to insist that Edward was clearly the one who saved her, with his strange superhuman strength, but thanks to twin telepathy (which either is actual telepathy or is just reading twin body language, who even knows) knows that Beau wants her to shut up. They say nothing, the truth isn't important.
Instead, Beau states that he was the one who pulled Bella out of the way, Bella's just confused. Edward stares at Beau like he's an alien. Beau just smiles, thanks Edward for his concern, then throws Edward out of the room.
Bella and Beau madly discuss that Edward's clearly not human. More, while he saved her life today and that was very noble of him, neither has truly forgotten how he was in that first day of Biology. More, did you see him now? He clearly wanted, desperately for Bella to not remember what happened. He crushed that van like a pretzel, what if they told him that they saw him? What would happen to them? Beau doesn't want to take chances, not even for the truth, and in retrospect Bella doesn't either. Now is not the time to look gifted horses in the mouth.
Given Bella's injured, Beau's on full guard duty that night.
Meanwhile, the Cullens have their vote. It's even more dramatic, because instead of just one innocent, injured, witness, there's two witnesses and one was completely uninjured. Carlisle is utterly appalled that Rosalie genuinely suggests murdering them both so she doesn't have to move. He's more appalled when Edward reveals that he believes the twins may believe that Edward... wishes them harm for having witnessed his heroics.
Because the irony being that the twins are right, the family is voting on this very issue right now. And what does that say about all of them?
Thankfully for Beau and Bella, the vote goes very similarly to canon. Jasper's not convinced until Alice has her vision.
And she drops the bomb. Edward's in love with Bella, Beau will be Edward's best friend and Bella Alice's, and both Bella and her brother will be turned and join the coven.
(Now, what Alice doesn't tell Edward is that, actually, Edward's in love with them both. It's safer to say that Edward's in love with the woman, as that's what Edward will far more readily accept. Throwing Beau into that mix would just make things very messy, if Alice wants her best friend and Edward's happy ending then she has to be smart about this.)
The family has a similar reaction. Carlisle gives his, "Well, alright then" and the family doesn't move. Edward, in despair and self-hatred, heads to the Swan house to see sleeping Bella for himself.
And lo and behold, Beau has been waiting for him. Beau tries to smash Edward's face in with a bat. Unfortunately, a) Edward's a vampire, b) Beau misses.
Beau and Edward end up talking, man to man, while Bella is sleeping. Edward decides that, yes, oh woe, he is in love with Beauford's sister and confesses as much (while also confessing that he might, you know, actually be dangerous). Beau suggests that Edward stay far away from his sister.
No, there's nothing Beau can do to stop Edward. Yes, he is just a pathetic human even more pathetic than most, but he promises that he will make Edward and his family's life hell on Earth if Edward ever thinks of assaulting his sister.
Edward protests he would never, Beau points out that Edward just climbed through his injured sister's window in the dead of night. Edward... tries and fails to explain away that one.
He actually does succeed in that he explains that Bella was in danger from... his siblings. Edward had come to protect Bella, to make sure none came to harm her. It's not necessarily his siblings' fault, it's complicated but... Well, Edward was trying to be somewhat noble.
Then something strange happens. Edward finds himself fascinated by this Beauford Swan. Such courage in the world's weakest, no most delicate, body. Look at those eyelashes, his big dark eyes, his perfectly shaped features. This boy is beautiful, as beautiful as his sister, and just as courageous as she is. And look at him now, nobly facing down a demon he knows he cannot win against for the sake of his sister.
How virtuous.
Edward tells himself that what he's feeling is kinship and admiration for Beauford Swan. Bella could not have a worthier brother. Edward leaves with the promise that he'll respect Beau's wishes (Beau doesn't believe that for a second).
The next morning, Beau tells Bella that Edward's the world's biggest creep and that the Twin Watch is not stopping anytime soon. They're going to need to make a big purchase of coffee.
Edward and His Torment
As in canon, Edward decides he should nobly stay out of Bella's life. He'll see if either twin really does talk (they don't) and then he'll ignore them until they disappear. They will forget him.
They don't, but they do discuss him. See, after much pondering, the twins realize that Edward truly is a Grade A hottie. More, he's so mysterious and inhuman. In retrospect, his saving Bella's life goes a long way, and for all that he's been... menacing, he's never truly threatened them and does seem intent on protecting Bella. More, he seems to be keeping his promise: he's staying out of Bella's life and he hasn't been back to the house since (he has, but they haven't caught him, Edward waits until they both crash until he can sneak in and stare at them both).
And he's never lied about being dangerous. Their glares soften into pondering glances, wondering just what the truth of this Edward Cullen and his family really is, and wonder what it'd be like to let him into their small, insular, world that no one before has ever managed to breach in the way he has.
Bella doesn't believe he's truly interested in her, despite Beau's insistence, and wonders if he's interested in Beau. Beau, for his own part, doesn't believe Edward's interested in him and insists that he's clearly very interested in Bella.
Reluctantly, the pair conclude that Edward is something likely very dangerous, against Edward's will, but benign. Whatever it was they sensed from Edward that first day, it was not something in his control.
Helping this is Edward enabling the mysterious mystery by breaking. He can't stay away from the twins. He tells them that he's tired of staying away from them, that they shouldn't be friends, that he doesn't want to be friends (but wants to be something hint, hint, wink, wink). Except he's convinced he and Beauford are friends, dual protectors of the angel Bella Swan. If he stares a little too much at Beau's perfect figure then that's because he's the perfect, male, version of his perfect sister.
Anyway, the twins go to Long Beach with the others and the twins are now just too curious. Edward's giving them nothing and they must know. Bella flirts with Jake for information, Beau is appalled that this works, and they hear the cold ones story. That night, they both have the prophetic Slayer dream: Edward is a vampire.
Bella tells Beauford that she knows three things. One is that she's in love with Edward. Beau's not sure how to take that for a second but, being Bella's twin and on the same weird wavelength, he gets it. He's in love with Edward too.
Neither finds it strange that they both confess to being in love with the same demon and that they see no conflict of interest in this.
The pair go to Port Angeles to help Jessica and Angela pick up dresses. (Angela and Jessica aren't sure why a man is coming, but they've learned not to question this twin thing). Bella and Beau ultimately decided not to go to the dance, too risky giving the deluge of invitations they received, and instead they'll be headed to Seattle that weekend. They claim this is not a date, Angela and Jessica just stare.
Due to Beau being with Bella, though the pair get hopelessly lost looking for the book store, Bella doesn't get followed by rapists. Edward shows up anyway, as Alice saw the possibility, and takes the pair of them to romantic Italian dinner. It's weird.
He then drives them home and Bella blurts it out. Edward's a vampire, she and Beau know. Edward has his miniature meltdown and realizes that these pair of siblings forgive him this. Beau, beautiful man that he is, is giving Edward his beloved sister and Bella is giving not only herself but her wonderful brother's hand in friendship.
Edward invites them both, that's right, them both, to the meadow. Neither thinks this is strange. And when they get there. Boom, it's over, any chance to question this is gone. Both Bella and Beau are seduced by Edward's sparkling chest and his quotes about lions.
He rests his head on Bella's chest but puts his right hand on Beau's. They sit like that. For hours.
The Cullens (Again)
Well, this went from weird to fucking weirder. It was weird enough when Edward became obsessed with this rando teenage girl. Now, it turns out that Edward's a horn dog panting after bisexual twins, clearly intending to romance them both at the same time.
Carlisle dearly tries to have an intervention. He sends Esme to do it, as in canon, this doesn't work (Esme is perfectly fine with Edward's twincest fetish and thinks it's wonderful).
Alice tells a dubious Jasper that Edward and Beau are just friends. Jasper doesn't believe her, but he's not sure what to even say.
Emmett is desperately holding in Edward sandwich jokes. Desperately.
When Beau and Bella are invited to the house (together of course), the entire family has no idea what to say to them. At all. They don't know how to process this. Rosalie is actually there this time, because somebody needs to warn these two about what Edward really wants, but then they're too weird.
It's all just too weird.
And... the rest of canon happens.
The baseball game occurs, James dies, Victoria's not sure which Swan she should target and so she targets them both anyway. They're in the same damn place so it makes 0 difference.
Bella and Beau joint hallucinate Hallucination Edward, somehow, and get even weirdly more codependent in their zombie fugue state. This tanks their popularity as now there's no denying the incest. Bella and Beau don't care.
Bella and Beau reach out to get Jake to build them the motorcycles. Jake doesn't necessarily want Beau around, the dude's weird and getting in the way of Bella time, but alright. Bella and Jake's friendship doesn't take off because Bella's codependent on Beau.
They do learn about the wolves though thanks to Jake's crush on Bella. Jake never realizes that he's coming in third place not only to Edward Cullen but to Beauford Swan. He thinks he has a chance. That poor boy.
Bella and Beau jump off the cliff together, convinced they weren't committing suicide.
Alice returns, gets Bella and Beau to go to Volterra, because Edward has to see that they're both alive. There's a joyful reunion, Aro is really weirded out by this whole damn thing and has a five second pause after touching Marcus' hand. "Well." he says afterwards, "You and your brother are close. I see."
They get to go home, Aro insists they turn. Eclipse happens. Edward proposes marriage to Bella. Neither Beau nor Bella are thrilled (mostly about the marriage and also about the question of how the twin enters this equation) but ultimately Bella accepts. Bella and Edward marry publicly.
Beau is invited for the honeymoon. Edward, Bella, nor Beau question this. Everyone else does. A lot. On Isle Esme, the three confirm their commitment to each other: they have a secret marriage. Edward and Beau are both convinced they're not in a relationship. Bella and Beau are convinced they're not incestuous.
Sex is had by... someone. Unclear who.
Bella gets pregnant, this seems to confirm Edward must be the father but... Bella and Beau are both very strange, almost alien, and very gifted. There is some red in their hair. Questions the Cullens dare not speak aloud are thought, Edward doesn't seem to notice.
TL;DR Basically, the books still happen but Edward is cuckolded and enables twincest.
...
I did not see this one coming guys. I swear. I did not.

Thomas the Tank Engine series 2 UK VHS release observations
Thought I'd do a follow-up on my post about Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends series 1 UK VHS releases by doing a post about series 2's releases. Compared to series 1, series 2's VHS releases are fairly straightforward so let's dive straight in.
Series 2 of Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends was first broadcast on CITV between the 24th of September and the 17th of December 1986. As with series 1, the episodes were broadcast in double bills with a nameboard sequence between each episode. When it came time to release series 2 on home video, the rights were given to Pickwick Video who released the series on three VHS tapes under their Screen Legends label on the 23rd of March 1987. These tapes were Thomas, Percy & the Coal & Other stories; containing the first eight episodes of series 2 (Thomas, Percy & the Coal to Duck Takes Charge), Percy & Harold & Other Stories; containing the middle eight episodes (Percy & Harold to Break Van), and The Deputation & Other Stories; containing the final ten episodes ( The Deputation to Thomas & the Missing Christmas Tree). Unlike the series 1 VHS releases, the decision to always include an even number of episodes on these releases ensured that all of the nameboard sequences remained intact. Pickwick would subsequently reissue the three videos on the 6th of November 1989 under their own name, though the packaging design remained the same, with the only differences being the removal of the Screen Legends logo and the tapes having Pickwick's own logo instead of the Screen Legends one. So far, pretty straight forward compared to the complicated release history of series 1.
In 1990, The Video Collection released Bumper Special; a compilation of 17 episodes from series 1. The following year, Pickwick Video released a spiritual sequel to that video in the form of their The Best of Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends; a compilation of 18 episodes from series 2, released on the 6th of May 1991. The included episodes were Thomas, Percy & the Coal, Cows, Bertie's Chase, Saved from Scrap, Percy & the Signal, Duck Takes Charge, Percy & Harold, The Runaway, Percy Takes the Plunge, Percy's Predicament, Dirty Work, A Close Shave, The Deputation, Thomas Comes to Breakfast, Edward's Exploit, Ghost Train, Woolly Bear and Thomas & the Missing Christmas Tree. It's curious that the video places Percy's Predicament before Thomas Comes to Breakfast as it causes some continuity issues. This video was the first Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends video to feature the Britt Allcroft presents ident at the start, the last to feature the Clearwater Features endboard at the end of each even-numbered episode and the last to be released by Pickwick.
In 1992, it was decided to transfer the rights to series 2 to The Video Collection, who already had the rights to series 1 and the newly-released series 3, thus bringing all three series under the same umbrella. To this end, The Video Collection re-released the three series 2 videos under their brand with covers by Britten Ellis McKean and new titles; Thomas, Percy & the Coal & Other Stories was now Percy & the Signal & Other Stories, Percy & Harold & Other Stories was now The Runaway & Other Stories and The Deputation & Other Stories was now Ghost Train & Other Stories. Episode division was the same as on the 1987/89 Pickwick releases, though the odd-numbered episodes now all began with the Britt Allcroft presents ident and the even-numbered episodes now all featured the Britt Allcroft Productions endboard instead of the Clearwater Features one. I personally consider this video cover design to be the best design, though only Percy & the Signal & Other Stories has an image from an episode that's actually on the tape, the image of Percy coming from Duck Takes Charge, though mirrored. The image of James on the cover of The Runaway & Other Stories is actually from series 3's No Joke for James and the image of Thomas on the cover of Ghost Train & Other Stories is actually from The Runaway. These three videos were subsequently reissued on the 22nd of November 1993 with a a promo at the beginning for various children's videos narrated by Ace herself, Sophie Aldred.
Between 1988 and 1992, The Video Collection had released a number of Watch & Play video packs which featured series 1 episodes. On the 3rd of October 1994, they released one final Watch & Play pack; Thomas Comes to Breakfast & Other Stories, containing six episodes from series 2; Percy & Harold, Percy Takes the Plunge, Bertie's Chase, Thomas & Trevor, Thomas Comes to Breakfast and Thomas & the Missing Christmas Tree. This was The Video Collection's final Watch & Play video and the only one to feature non-series 1 episodes. It would also be the last purely series 2 release for a while as they concentrated on series 4 and bumper special videos for the next few years.
On the 29th of May 1995, The Video Collection released Ghost Train & Other Stories/Time for Trouble & Other Stories, a compilation of two earlier releases; Ghost Train & Other Stories and the 1991 series 3 release Time for Trouble & Other Stories. It's worth noting that although the packaging claims Ghost Train & Other Stories comes first on the tape, Time for Trouble & Other Stories actually comes first, despite those episodes being from series 3. 1995 would also see The Video Collection rebrand as VCI, though it wouldn't be until 1999 that we would see a purely series 2 release under that banner.
In 1998, VCI released all of series 1 in one VHS boxset and the following year they decided to give series 2 the same treatment, hence Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends: The Complete 2nd Series, a two-video box set containing all 26 episodes of series 2, released on the 17th of May 1999. The first tape in the set contained the first 13 episodes (Thomas, Percy & the Coal to Dirty Work), and the second tape contained the remaining 13 (A Close Shave to Thomas & the Missing Christmas Tree). This would ultimately be the final series 2 VHS release as DVDs soon came on stream. Series 2 would receive it's first DVD release in 2004 and go on to be re-released in 2010 and 2012.
That concludes my look at Thomas the Tank & Friends series 2 UK VHS releases. Certainly not as complex as series 1. If anyone wants to see an observation of series 3 VHS releases, drop a comment.

buffer bother?
it's not half as bad as people say
the opening narration is so fond of the little twin menaces; up to a point (like 25 or so seconds in) i can so easily imagine that edward is telling this story to some visitors
mavis being thrown in again to work with the twins and essentially be their minder is by far my least favorite part. i mean, i like seeing her, but i hate to see that they are locking this down as the whole of her character. #let girl characters not have to be the sensible one 2022
then again, with the new season 5 cut footage i kinda have a realisation about mavis and why the TVS did her Like That. $50 says the mavis model was one of their strongest and most reliable runners (judging by how she is used off-camera to help film the runaway trucks). her model's behavior spilled over to her TVS characterisation—she was their Really Useful clutch in filming and so it affected how they began to use her character in-story!
this sends me down a delighted reflection on how often that happens. like, daisy's model was unreliable; therefore she was used as little as they possibly could until CGI. boco's model began to get scoliosis; hence he disappears. those are the unfortunate examples but this could easily work in reverse. i am betting this is a big part of the reason why duncan, rusty, and to some extent peter sam, skarloey, and rheneas initially got so much screentime with their larger-scale models—they were probably the most reliable runners.
this sort of thing has venerable roots, as it affected how awdry wrote the series to begin with. the great western's 5700s didn't waddle, but the awdrys' pannier tank model did and therefore we got duck instead of merely montague. meanwhile his james model iirc only functioned in reverse and his henry model was super unreliable, and since he didn't have a gordon for some while the edward model generally ran all the trains on his main line set, and if you don't think all of this didn't influence his characterisations of them in the early years of the series then i have a bridge to sell you. (it totally won't take you to walney island.)
... man, i got off track
honestly, i liked bill's growl of "i still know how to biff a truck!" despite that the stories have gotten rather "younger" in S6, angelis was on an absolute roll with his narration and i love that he makes all the characters sound like adults. this is a great example. between the script and the voice acting, bill just... sounds like a real character who has spent his whole life working in clay pits... *squints* erm, quarries?
yeah, the less said about the continuity of the "quarry engines" around this era of the show the better
to be fair, S5 and S6 seemed to be doing a lot of deliberate re-working of settings and engine allocations. i'm not saying i'm wild about all their choices but i don't think it was a matter of mere carelessness.
"bust my buffers!" "i think you have." lolllll. this is a mild example in a season-long trend of the scripts subtly doing little self-owns. i really like it; (most of) season 6 has such an endearing sense of humor about itself. the way they keep making fun of their own "luckily, no one was hurt" shtick, but the joke is a little different every time... and then quips like this... it's nice. it's really very nice.
did we need to listen to bill get scolded the whole damn episode long? well yeah, it's a little tiring. on the other hand it's a great insight into what it must be like to be bill. so, y'know.
overall, nothing special. but a solid 3 out of 6 tenders.
