Sarah and James Jones are twin siblings. They are the children of Charlie and Bronwyn, the grandchildren of Gareth Griffiths and the niece and nephew of Fireman Sam. They are said to be the most well behaved children living in Pontypandy, but as of the sixth series, this has mostly changed.

Relationship[]

Sarah and James have a good relationship with each other, their parents Charlie and Bronwyn, grandfather Gareth, and a close relationship with their Uncle Sam.

Biography[]

Sarah and James are often the more prominent children characters in the series. They have had a number of episodes and in the specials revolving around them showing their sisterly-and-brotherly bond. They are:

  • Snow Business: Sarah and James nearly fall into a frozen pond when the ice cracks.
  • Lost in the Fog: Sarah became stuck in the bog, an instance of a life-or-death situation.
  • Quarry Rescue: James falls into an abandoned rock quarry.
  • Fun Run: James hurt his ankle in a charity race.
  • Alarm on the Beach: James gets stuck under a crate.
  • The Great Fire of Pontypandy: Sarah and James hold hands when the forest was on fire so they didn't get separated.
  • The Pontypandyness Monster: Sarah and some citizens get stranded in the middle of Pontypandy lake.
  • On Thin Ice: A similar situation from Snow Business.
  • Heroes of the Storm: Certain situations whilst trying to get out of the caves.
  • Alien Alert: Sarah broke her arm after a nasty fall with Norman.
  • Set for Action!: James forgave Sarah after she kept on calling him "little brother" because she is 5 minutes older and saying she doesn't want help from her "little brother". After James found evidence about their Uncle Sam's controversial sacking, they decided to work as a team again along with Mandy's help. James also told Sam about Sarah and Mandy being trapped in Flex Dexter's burning trailer.

Of course their have been a few sibling rivalries between the two. When they once got lost in the fog, James blamed Sarah for it because she wanted to get off Trevor's bus and pick flowers for Penny. But they do forgive each other.

When they both grow up, they want to be firefighters just like their Uncle Sam.

Physical appearances[]

Sarah
Sarah has sky blue eyes and platinum blonde hair. In the first series to the fourth series, Sarah wears a pale pink long-sleeved T-shirt with hot pink dungarees with a picture of a tree on it and pinkish white shoes. In the fifth series, Sarah's hair was made shorter and wears a lavender long-sleeved T-shirt with two stars on the left and right and a butterfly in the middle on it, pink trousers, and pink shoes. As of the sixth series, Sarah becomes slightly taller than James, and her hair is made more medium-length, and wears a pink jumper with a blue sleeveless jacket over it (however, in the episode Baa Baa Baby, when Sarah is inside, the pink selves from the jumper are the sleeves of the blue jacket and she wears a green sleeveless jacket and blue shirt underneath it, this was most likely a mistake). She also wears cyan trousers and pink and white shoes. Come Series 16, Sarah now wears a navy top with a pink jacket and jeans with brown shoes.

James
Like Sarah, James has sky blue eyes and platinum blond hair. In the first series to the fourth series, James wears a black jumper with a white letter J on it, blue trousers and blue shoes.

Trivia[]

  • Sarah and James were named after Dave Gingell's children.[1]
  • Miranda Larson stated on Twitter that her favourite character is James Jones.
  • Between the two, Sarah has appeared the most.
  • In the fifth series, Sarah and James have English accents instead of Welsh accents like they do in every other series.
  • In Set for Action!, it is established that Sarah is five minutes older than James at birth.
  • Starting with the fifth series, Sarah and James have mistakenly referred to their "Uncle Sam" as "Fireman Sam" in a number of episodes.
  • James was almost arrested by Sergeant Rose Ravani for messing about with the Police Station property in The Lock In, however he was released without charge after helping out in an emergency.
  • Sarah and James were most likely based on Katy and Tom Pottage from Postman Pat; this would make sense, as Rob Lee took some inspiration from Postman Pat when creating Fireman Sam.
  • In the Norwegian dub, James was renamed Jon.
  • In the Hebrew dub, James was renamed Ben between the first and fifth series prior to the introduction of Ben Hooper in the ninth series. Despite Sarah being the only character to have a non-Anglicised Hebrew name, she was named Edna in the same dub for the first four series.
