History[]
In 2008, PBS Kids Sprout picked up the series in the US and produced an American dub for the series, along with a voice recast and accent changes, some characters names were changed, for example, Bumble was renamed Fuzzbuzz and Poppy to Poppady. The dub also switches out British terms with American ones. Interestingly, the US dub features the same voice cast as the British version.
