  • An actor on screen for many decades in many television programs alone, he may be most remembered (in his later career at least), in the UK and around the world, as the narrator in the Thomas and Friends program, which he narrated for over 20 years. He died yesterday from a heart attack, a month after his birthday.

    Such a tragedy to lose one of the best narrators in children’s tv shows... I loved watching Thomas when I was a kid and he inspired so many young children who loved Thomas to be more successful in their futures. RIP Michael Angelis

    He truly was a Really Useful person. His narration for Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends was very great. And everyone in the fandom loved him. As a kid I remember his voice when I watched most of the episodes from the UK.

    RIP Michael Angelis, think he got out of the show at the right time and in it the right time, just not the same anymore. That was one death I never saw coming, a bit like when Andy Cunningham of Bodger and Badger died 2 years ago nearly 3 RIP. Thanks for all you did, my favourite episodes with him in would have to be Special Funnel, Steamroller and Bulls Eyes in that order.

    I am stunned when I heard the tragic news that the actor Michael Angelis has passed away. He sure was a wonderful actor and I really liked the drama series Boys From The Blackstuff when he played Chrissie. And also narrated Thomas The Tank Engine. Michael will be sadly missed. Deepest Condolences to Michael's wife and Family. Rest in Peace Michael and God Bless.😥😢😪🙏
