CBeebies

CBeebies is the children's strand of British terrestrial television network BBC, where Bob the Builder was originally broadcast in the UK. One of the BBC franchises, CBBC (Originally known as CBBC Choice) produced the first four series which premiered between 1999 to 2001 respectively on BBC, BBC Choice and Nick Jr.. CBeebies later picked up with the fifth series in 2002 when it was founded. After Ready, Steady, Build! ended, repeats of the original series continued until 2012 and Project: Build It until 2015 before the Bob the Builder brand left CBeebies for Channel 5's Milkshake and Cartoonito. Despite Mattel being the current rights owners of the series, the BBC appears to still have distribution rights over the original series, as they released every episode from the sixth series to the ninth series on the official CBeebies website and the BBC iPlayer for the (assumed) 20th anniversary of the series in November 2018. The first five series were later added in September 2020.
