Nicktoons (UK & Ireland)

:For Nick Toons in United States, see NickToons.
Nick Toons, formerly Nick Toons TV, is a British digital television channel launched on 22 July 2002. It is a cartoon-based sister channel to Nickelodeon. The channel airs cartoons, these are commonly known as Nicktoons. Unlike the United States version, it has been ad-supported since it launched and also it does not broadcast 24/7. When the channel dropped all of the old Nicktoons programmes, some of them were moved to Nicktoonsters when it launched on 18 August 2008. A Text Font From The 2014 Branding Was Used For The Tots Break Logo At Parkdean Holidays.
On June 17, 2009, it was announced that a one hour timeshift of Nicktoons, called Nicktoons Replay would launch on 20 July 2009. The name and format will be similar to the one hour timeshift of Nickelodeon, called Nick Replay that launched on 1 September 1999. 
On May 1, 2024, Nicktoons rebranded its channel identity, in line with a wider corporate rebranding across Nickeleodeon starting in 2023. This was Nicktoons' sixth rebrand, retiring the logo that the channel had used 10 years ago since its launch 22 years earlier. The new style featured a new logo in line with the Nickeleodeon's 2023 logo, and the yellow "Toons" logo was recolored green.
