In the''' UK''', the [[One Piece]] anime was previously broadcast on [[Wikipedia:Toonami|Toonami]]. They aired the [[4Kids]] version (with all the edits made to the US Version) until completing this dub at the end of 2006. In 2007 Toonami UK, having suffered from failing ratings as a result of moving away action cartoons (One Piece being one of the last action shows that aired on the channel), was replaced with CN TOO, a more direct sister channel used to largely run reruns from the main [[Wikipedia:Cartoon Network (UK & Ireland)|Cartoon Network]] channel. In September 2009 'One Piece' was briefly rerun on CN TOO using the 4Kids version, some three years after 4Kids lost the rights to the series, beginning at the end of the [[Drum Island Arc]]. 'One Piece' has not aired on UK television since.

In the UK, the One Piece anime premiered on Toonami on April 11, 2005.[1] This was the same 4Kids localized version that had aired in the USA. Toonami completed the dub at the end of 2006.
