STEAMTEAM'S RECENT PURCHASES

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SteamTeam's Recent Purchases was originally released on SteamTeam's channel in the form of a slideshow of Thomas items SteamTeam had picked up at boot sales and charity shops with no commentary. After a while, SteamTeam added in filmed footage and a dubbed-over commentary track. After Calico saw how popular the videos were (one has recieved over two-hundred-and-fifty-thousand view!), he decided it was something he'd like to have on his channel.

 

In 2013 the series was revamped. Instead of posting stand-alone videos as they were released on SteamTeam's channel, it was decided that it would become a proper series of five episodes. Filming was moved to a different shed (the same shed used in Ronnie the Mole), Calico joined the series to add in more of a comedy element and they started using a multiple cameras set-up. Also, a uniform was introduced and SteamTeam and Calico wore matching t-shirts in company colours. The series also features regular giveaways which are always popular. Perhaps this is why it is Calico TV's most watched shows.
