Bluey lands three famous guest stars as two top comedians and Last Leg host join hit kids series for special episodes

SMASH-HIT children’s TV show Bluey has added a touch of British humor to its latest release, with three famous guest stars lending their voices to brand new episodes.

Comedians Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe, co-hosts of the popular Parenting Hell podcast, are being joined by The Last Leg star Alex Brooker in six new Bluey Minisodes.

These are now streaming on Disney+.

The standout episode, titled Butlers, takes place in Bluey’s dreamhouse.

In it Monty, the head butler (voiced by Beckett), is busy training a new recruit, Barnsley (Widdicombe).

Brooker rounds out the team as Harlow, the kitchen butler.

Josh shared his excitement for this new venture with a twist of humour, saying: "It was a huge honour to be asked to be a part of a show that has shown the world that children’s TV can be genuinely absolutely brilliant for all ages. Just a shame Rob Beckett had to ruin it."

Alex added: "I can’t believe I got to be involved in the best children’s show ever made.

"I treasure sitting with my daughters laughing at Bluey and I’ve still never got through Sleepytime without crying.

"It’s an absolute privilege to have been a part of the show and do it alongside my friend Rob Beckett and the other one from his podcast and that Last Leg show."

The trio’s love for the series is no secret.

Rob and Josh attended the UK premiere of Bluey’s Big Play at the Royal Festival Hall last December, and Rob even joined celebrations earlier this year when Australia House was temporarily renamed “Bluey House” in recognition of the show’s global impact.

The Bluey Minisodes series, created by Bluey mastermind Joe Brumm, offers bite-sized episodes filled with humorous moments featuring Bluey and her sister, Bingo.

Running just one to three minutes each, the episodes are perfect for quick laughs.

Bluey first started airing in 2018, and has since reached cult status worldwide.

Shown in 60 countries across the world, it was the most-streamed series in January and February and the second most viewed programme in the US last year.

When asked why the show is so popular, Danii Minogue once shared: "There is life before Bluey, and life after. Once you know Bluey . . .  you are hooked.

"It is fun for so many ages, as we can all relate to ­different members of Bluey’s family."
