Captain Star (TUGS)
Captain Star is a fictional character from the 1989 children's series TUGS, from the producers of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends: Robert D. Cardona and David Mitton.
Captain Star is the most prominent character in the whole series, due to the fact that he narrates it. He narrates in past tense, and in a way that makes it clear that he is no longer at the helm of the fleet, and since the 1920's he has retired. It is unknown whether he is looking back from the actual time the programme was released (late eighties) or before, neither it is known who he is recounting his memories to. He narrates all thirteen episodes.
He is obviously a veteran sailor and owns the Star Fleet. He takes great pride in his fleet, but he knows that it is important to be hard on them in order to succeed. He is usually very defiant and is always very strict if something doesn't go as shipshape as it's suppose too. He has seven tugs and one submarine (this is from 4th July onwards), they are: Ten Cents, Big Mac, OJ, Top Hat, Warrior, Hercules, Sunshine and Grampus.
Captain Star is voiced by veteran voice actor Patrick Allen, known throughout the world by his distinctive voice.
