Summary of Character[]
Bob the Builder is a British children's animated television show created by
Keith Chapman. In the original series Bob appears as a building contractor specialising in masonry in a stop-motion animated programme
with his colleague Wendy, other neighbours and friends, and their gang of anthropomorphised work-vehicles and equipment (all made of clay). The show is broadcast in many countries, but originates from the United Kingdom where Bob is voiced by British actor Neil Morrissey. However in the U.S. Bob is voiced by Greg Proops. The show was later created using computer animation starting with the spin-off series Ready Steady Build.
In each episode, Bob and his gang help with renovations, construction, and repairs and with other projects as needed. The show emphasises conflict resolution, co-operation, socialization and different learning skills. Bob's catchphrase is "Can we fix it?", to which the other characters respond with "Yes we can!". The phrase is also the title of the show's theme song, which was a million-selling number one hit in the UK. The show is targeted at children ages 3 to 7.
