The Powerpuff Girls is an American animated television series, created in 1998. A British dub of the show supposedly aired on Channel 5's block for preschoolers. The video games based on the series were also said to be redubbed with UK voice actors just like with Thomas & Friends when Thomas & Friends has both US and UK dubs, however, the Powerpuff Girls' UK voice actors put on American accents. Some characters remain their original voice actors, including Professor Utonium and Mojo Jojo.
It was later dropped due to complaints from fans. A picture from the episode "Super Zeroes" captured from Channel 5 has surfaced online, and the episode "Knock It Off" also captured from Channel 5 as well, but uses the US version instead.
Jo Wyatt, the British voice of Buttercup, has included a small voice clip as part of her demo reel , though it seems to use edited footage from the US dub.
Existence has been confirmed of this dub, by people from the UK who used to watch it on Channel 5's Milkshake! strand. They then showed the US dub after people emailed in asking why the voices were different on Cartoon Network. However, conclusive proof of its existence has yet to surface, and it may very well be another example of the Mandela Effect.
