I think I started one for the first season, but there were not a lot of comments.  The chance of finding that thread is right up there with my buying a private varnish dome car.

It took about 10 seconds with a Google search ... but private varnish is still expensive.

We don't seem to animate our layouts like the Btrits seem to.

I have never been a fan of very much animation. It seems to look like a Flea Circus very quickly.

I didn't know the second season was out.  You can find it here.

I wonder if a similar show would attract enough contestants in the US.

I tried a search to see if this had been discussed previously but didn't find anything. Has anybody else seen this British series on Youtube? The modelling seems very toy like with so much animation incorporated in the layouts. I've wondered how such a show/ contest would translate in the USA. We don't seem to animate our layouts like the Btrits seem to. Thoughts??
