**Existence Unconfirmed**

Another Albanian dub of the series (out of three), pressumed to have been the second dub, titled **Derri Pepa** was said to have aired on RTSH 2. No proof of this can be found, however AlbanianDubs suggests that there are three dubs on the page of actress Jozefina Luci, who was in the Tring dub.

If it does exist, nothing has surfaced online of the dub then.

2020 - present

On July 1, 2020, it was announced that the Nick Jr. Global feed would offer dubs of certain programs in Amharic, one of them being *Peppa Pig*. While the Amharic dub does still air on the channel, it is a rare audio track that is inaccessible to many.

It is notable that episodes of the dub have also been available on the streaming service Noggin in Europe, another service that not many have.

However, in 2022 a Nick Jr. stream with this audio track was found. The episodes *Peppa and George's Garden*, *The Queen* and *Desert Island* were recorded and can be viewed here.

Next year, at 2023; a stream was found. The episodes ''Pottery'' ,''Paper Airplanes'', ''Bycicles'', ''Secrets'' , "New Shoes", "Flying A Kite" , "Picnic" and "Musical Instruments" were found and can be viewed here, here and here.

Apparently, only season 1 was dubbed.

### Year(s)

2005-2007

In 2005, a North American dub of **Peppa Pig** was first shown on Cartoon Network in the United States as a part of the short-lived preschool programming block known as Tickle-U.

Tickle-U only lasted two and a half years, and the series would later rerun on Noggin in December 2007 and January 2008, but with the original British version. The series currently airs on the Nick Jr. channel, but like Noggin, it airs the British version.

The dub was recorded by Chrom Dubbing Studios in Miami, Florida. Some of the voice cast information was scattered around the internet on various resumes, including Sydney Patrick as Peppa Pig, Nanique Gheridian as Granny Pig and Madame Gazelle, Heather Rolff as Candy Cat, and Chloe Dolandis as Richard Rabbit and Emily Elephant. It is unknown how many seasons were dubbed, but seeing as how Emily and Richard both have confirmed actors, it is very likely that at least two seasons were.

#### Discoveries

Audio clips of Peppa, George, Mummy Pig, and Daddy Pig's American laughter can be heard in the game Swirlygig. Gameplay of the game can be seen here.

Elaine Torres' Voices.com profile includes a short clip of Suzy Sheep talking to Daddy Pig from "Fancy Dress Party", as part of her animation/commercial reel.

In June 2007, the voice of Grandpa Pig, Heath Kelts, included clips from various episodes of the dub. Featured are "Grandpa Pig's Boat", "Frogs and Worms and Butterflies" and "Gardening".

The demo reel of Peppa's actress, Sydney Patrick, contained a clip from "Daddy Puts a Picture". This was mirrored onto YouTube on December 2020; the original upload of her resume has since been taken down.

On May 9, 2014, a Tickle U promo for Peppa Pig using clips of the dub was uploaded by SufferingFoolsMusic. The clips featured are from "Daddy Loses His Glasses".

An unknown person eventually recorded an episode in full, "Mommy Pig's Birthday", although it was cam recorded from a TV with loud buzzing. A restoration attempt was created by Rno from Discord, and posted on January 1, 2021 by BlueFrog.

Nick Jr. aired the U.S Version as an April Fools Prank once on an unknown date.

### Year(s)

??-2011

In Japan, the series temporarily aired on Cartoon Network, with the title **ペッパピッグ**. It has been said to stop airing in 2011. The cast of the dub is available on the Wikipedia page. The song "Colorful Fanfare" from artist ROCO was infamously used as its opening theme when it was airing on the network.

The license of the franchise was acquired by Sega Toys in 2017, and as such, a new dub would air on TV Tokyo's "Kinder Television" program. The same dub also airs on Disney Junior since 2018.

Unlike American English and Latin American Spanish, both partially found dubs that aired on Cartoon Network and Boomerang respectively, nothing has been found of the Japanese dub despite supposedly having aired later than both.

The known cast is:

* Peppa Pig (ペッパ): Rie Kugimiya
* George Pig (ジョージ): Masako Jō
* Daddy Pig (お父さん): Osamu Sakuta
* Mommy Pig (お母さん): Yūko Sasaki
* Narrator: Tokuyoshi Kawashima

### Year(s)

2009-2019

A Scottish Gaelic dub, simply titled **Peppa**, premiered on BBC Alba on September 23, 2009 at 17:00 PM BST, airing the episode "Muddy Puddles". Reruns of the first season would be aired until 2012, which is around the time when season 2 premiered. The last episode aired on June 3, 2019. Episodes were also released on BBC iPlayer the day the series premiered, but are no longer available due to rights agreements. ([1]They are still available.)

Despite airing so long, the only four episodes archived were "The Toy Cupboard" (Am Preasa Dheideagan), uploaded by Buidhe in 2017, "Whistling" (Feadaireachd), uploaded by SuperBloxTube in 2021, "Washing" (Nigheadaireachd), uploaded by Bilal Pengsheri in 2021 and "Peppa's Christmas" (An Nollaig aig Peppa), uploaded by LewisWilloDubs in 2022.

### Year(s)

2006-2008

In Latin America, two seasons of the series originally ran on Boomerang (during its renewal stage, when it stopped broadcasting classic cartoons) from April 3, 2006 until June 1, 2008, with a Veneuzlean dub produced by Etcétera Group. The cast is available on the Doblaje Wiki. The show ceased airing on the channel since they stopped airing the block that broadcast it. Because the channel Boomerang is not as well known among preschool audiences, and its distribution on cable systems is less than that of other channels (even more so in 2006), the series went almost unnoticed in its first broadcast.

As of 2013, the series was re-dubbed and airs on Discovery Kids, this time with a well-archived Mexican dub. Apparently, the Brazilian feed of Discovery Kids still broadcasts the closing song of the Venezuelan dub, for unknown reasons.

The biggest find is that the official *Peppa Pig* channel hosts clips and the first episodes of the dub on their YouTube channel; it is pressumed to be all that they have of the dub, and most other uploads are of the Mexican dub. The first instance was in January 31, 2015, where they uploaded a clip of the dub; this would continue two times in February and March respectively.

Later in June 2015, they uploaded two 47-minute compilations. The episodes included are "Best Friend", "Polly Parrot", "The Playgroup", "Mummy Pig at Work", "Gardening", "Mr. Dinosaur Is Lost", "Hide and Seek", "Piggy in the Middle", "Daddy Loses His Glasses", and "Muddy Puddles". It should be noted that both compilations feature the same episodes, in a different order; the channel occasionally uploads compilations well into 2022 featuring these same episodes.

2020 - present

The Estonian TV channel Kidzone TV had offered Võro voice-overs to both *Peppa Pig* and *Thomas & Friends* in 2020. An article states that it was recorded in Fastrõ Mariko Võro Instituudist; the voice work was done by Hilje Murel and Tarmo Tagamets. Jüvä Sullõv helped instruct them on saying words right, and Kuuba Rainer was involved too. It also airs on KidZone+.

Like the Amharic dub, this voice-over still airs, however the Võro audio track on Kidzone TV is heavily inaccessible to many. A promo featuring very brief audio samples was uploaded by the channel in May 2020.
