Thought this might be an interesting game to try out- basically somebody writes out a jumbled up version of an episode title (they can use a generator if they like) and someone else has to decipher the original title. First one to post the answer gets to write out another anagram, and so on and so forth.
For example, "Lapsed Yucky Cry" is Percy's Lucky Day.
And "A Dab Settlement Got Thy Noun" is Toby and the Stout Gentleman.
For now the thread will probably focus on TV Series episodes, specials, and perhaps Railway Series stories, rather than Magazine/Annual stories which will be harder to guess.
I'll start with an easy one:

Edit (01/11/15): Oh dear, I fear I've killed this thread dead by making one too hard for people to guess. I'll leave it up for now, but should I have made one slightly simpler?

Think I've worked it out, but I had to scroll through a list of episodes online to find one's with the Ps and W in;
Emily's Winter Party Special
If I'm right, here is my one;

Ian, I think yours is Smoke and Mirror(s), but you may be missing an s? Quite correct- I did a letter out. At least it didn't stop you getting it hey?! EDIT... 5 hours later I see I also just missed the word 'miss' out of that sentence. I'm doing well round here ain't I?!

I seem to have stalled the game with my last so I'd better supply a clue...
It's a three word title, starting with T.

I like it. Clearly I'm making this too hard. It's a CGI narrow gauge episode with the lead character's name in the title. (That should narrow it down a bit!)
