Thomas the tank engine is heading to Bluewater with his new film this month.

Following the success of last year’s Sodor’s Legend of the Lost Treasure – which starred Eddie Redmayne, John Hurt and Olivia Colman – Thomas is back with a new 60-minute musical family adventure.

Thomas and Friends: The Great Race sees Thomas up against bigger engines at the Great Railway Show and introduces 13 new engines including Raul of Brazil, Yong Bao of China and Ivan of Russia.

It screens at Bluewater’s Showcase cinema on May 21 and 22. Tickets cost £5.95. Go to showcasecinemas.co.uk
