Gareth Cliff is set to guest star in this Saturday’s episode of Phineas and Ferb on Dstv Channel 304 and joins the likes of David Beckham, Ben Stiller, Michael J. Fox, Selena Gomez and Slash who have lent their vocal talents to one of the globes’ most popular cartoons.
South African radio presenter and Idols judge Gareth Cliff is to lend his voice talent to TV’s number one hit animation, Disney’s *Phineas and Ferb. Cliff voices the Ducky MoMo salesman in the third season of the BAFTA-nominated and Emmy-award winning animated comedy series, which has attracted over 289m viewers worldwide. Even Michelle Obama considers herself a fan. Below is a behind the scenes clip, featuring a sneak peek of Gareth Cliff’s voice in a cartoon body:
Currently Phineas and Ferb is the number one rated show on Disney XD and the top animated series on Disney Channel (DStv Channel 303) with kids. During the last measured quarter in South Africa Phineas and Ferb reached over 4.7 Million individuals!!!
The show centres around the adventures of Phineas and his English stepbrother Ferb – played by British actor Thomas Sangster (Nanny McPhee, Love Actually) – who set out to conquer boredom and make every day of their 104-day summer holiday count, much to the annoyance of their older sister, Candace, played by Ashley Tisdale (High School Musical). The series is co-produced and created by Dan Povenmire (Family Guy) and Jeff ‘Swampy’ Marsh (The Simpsons).
UPDATE:
Apologies to Gareth and all his fans that his episode didn’t air on Disney XD on Saturday. Could it have been Dr Doofenschmirtz’s evil plan? Well, we’re happy to confirm that Agent P has since come to the rescue and Gareth’s special episode will now air on Disney XD on Saturday 23rd March at 09.45. Tune in tomorrow to watch!
