Bob the Builder
Bob the builder is a stop motion animated children's television show about the adventures of a construction contractor and his friends. The show is broadcast in many countries, but originates from the United Kingdom. It features Bob (voiced by actor Neil Morrissey in the original British version), his colleague Wendy, various neighbors and friends, and their gang of anthropomorphized work-vehicles and equipment. In each episode, they help with renovations, construction, and repairs, and with other projects needed. The show emphasizes conflict resolution, co-operation, socialization, and various learning skills. Bob's catchphrase is "Can we fix it?", to which the other characters respond with "Yes we can!" This phrase is also the title of the show's theme song.

This show of a builder and his crew of talking machines teach the value of teamwork, problem solving and achieving something by working together.

Bob the builder is set in Bob's yard in the town of Bobsville. Bob and his loveable gang of machines - Scoop the digger, Muck the bulldozer, Lofty the crane, Roley the steamroller and Dizzy the cement mixer - work together, laugh together, play together, quarrel and make up and just do their best to muddle through. Just like kids everywhere.
Their world is imaginative and filled with fun and adventure - a unique world of construction mayhem and mud, that comes complete with modern gadgets like mobile phones, computers and faxes!
