The UK version may have slight spelling differences from the US version though. They may have what's called an "Anglicized" version of the book. (i.e. An "apartment" is called a "flat", a "truck" is called a "lorry", "tire" is spelt "tyre", etc.)

Lorry! LOL!

That's what they call it in England.

All my UK education comes from shows made by -- you guessed it -- the BBC!

The book series is written by an Anglican minister Rev. W. Awdry and his son, Christopher.
He, the book series and the TV series are all British.

The British do make some good entertainment. Take Hornblower.

Take Mr. Bean
