Yes I hear you saying why has he included this in the collection? Balamory has been an extremely successful show for kids the length and breadth of the UK.  Apart from this, merchandising such as this has raised millions of pounds for the producers BBC Television Scotland.  The series was filmed in and around the island of Mull and has worked wonders for the Tourist industry there.  Personally as a grandfather, I admit to being a bit of a Thomas the Tank Engine fan.  The Original Ford Transit used in the series, is currently in the Museum of Transport, at the Kelvin Hall, Glasgow.
