==================================

Bob the Builder and Thomas the Tank Engine set to join forces

By Ananova

The company behind Bob The Builder could soon be taking over the firm which owns Thomas The Tank Engine.

HIT Entertainment has confirmed it has made a bid approach to Gullane Entertainment.

HIT says the approach envisages a price of 500p per share.

This would be paid mostly in cash funded out of HIT's bank facilities.

In 2000, Gullane rejected a 750p-a-share bid approach from HIT.

Gullane's performance has been boosted by the continued popularity of Thomas The Tank Engine and Sooty.

HIT is best-known for owning Bob The Builder and Barney The Dinosaur.
