Clangers aiming to become America’s new sweethearts

Preschool brand lands on YouTube Kids in the US from today.

Preschool brand Clangers is continuing its global expansion, bringing its values of love and kindness to YouTube Kids in the US from today (February 14).

26 x 11-minute episodes of the stop-motion animation show – featuring Sir Michael Palin as narrator – are available to watch on the streaming service and will be featured on the YouTube Kids app home screen for a month.

“We are delighted to be partnering with YouTube Kids to bring our compelling preschool brand, Clangers, to a US audience, extending its brand exposure into this key global market,” said Michael Dee, director of content at Coolabi. “This will be the first time that the UK version of the new Clangers series, featuring Sir Michael Palin, will be available to watch in the US, and there is huge anticipation for its official premiere across the pond.”

The Clangers brand is marking 50 years in 2019 since the show first aired in the UK.
