Doraemon is one of several English dubs of ドラえもん. It was planned to air on MTV in the United Kingdom and Ireland during the '90s, but was never picked up.
Contrary to popular belief, the dub was not produced by Phuuz Entertainment, Inc., but rather a British dubbing studio. Besides that, the dub also adds in some more adult humor, making it resemble a gag dub.

Changes[]
- The soundtrack is completely changed, such as in one scene, in which when Nobita (Noby) and Shizuka (Serena) switch bodies, curiously, the Twilight Zone theme is played.
- As mentioned before, the dub implements more adult jokes:
- When Doraemon gives the two their substitution rope, the balls are referred to as "knobs", which in British English, is a slang term for penis.
- In the original version, Gian (Andy) and Suneo (Eddy) are building a treehouse. In this dub, sound are added implying they're having sex.
- When Nobita (Noby) in Shizuka (Serena)'s body gets a hold at a book, (s)he says "I can't read this. It's in Japanese!".
