As I said, it seems incredibly strange that there'd be a "UK dub" that would still use American accents, and voices which closely resemble the original. Not to mention that UK dubs of US cartoons seem to have always been restricted to pre-school shows (presumably to try and stop young childen "talking American", though it seems to be very inconsistent which shows get UK dubs and which don't, as I've learned with hours of having to watch Disney Junior and Nick Jr thanks to my nephews and nieces. Doesn't help the UK dubs are pretty much universally awful), which PPG is not. With the exception of the Hanna-Barbera series of SuperTed anyway, where they got Derek Griffiths and Jon Pertwee back to dub the characters they played in the original, and even that was over a decade before the practice of re-dubbing US pre-school cartoons began.
When it comes to cartoon voices, and partly related to the Powerpuff Girls, I have met Jim Cummings, which might be one of the highlights. And my boyfriend's met Charlie Adler, who I wish I'd been able to meet too seeing as I used to be mad for Cow & Chicken when I was 12.
