This show was produced by the animation company Bumper Films (the makers of the original Fireman Sam). Like Fireman Sam, this show was aired originally on S4C in the Welsh language and later dubbed English for the BBC.
The show was also broadcast in Australia on ABC.
Bumper Films Were Unaware That Another Kids Show That Also Featured A Boat Called Rosie & Jim Was Being Made For CITV At The Same Time As Their Show Joshua Jones For The BBC And Lost A Lot Of Money Due To Rosie & Jim Being More Popular.
Joshua Jones Was Never Boardcast In The USA & Canada.
