Each episode, lasting approximately five minutes, sees Peppa acquiring new skills, making mates and having fun, with most episodes concluding with Peppa and her friends collapsing in fits of laughter, reports the Express.

In addition to teaching youngsters about friendship and manners, the long-standing series has mesmerised toddlers, keeping them amused for hours on end.

However, it's not just parents who have sung praises for the cherished children's programme, but also those reminiscing about their own youth.

One individual remarked: "This show is astonishing. I have grew up watching this show and all I can think of when I hear those two words "peppa pig" is MEMORIES of me loving there admiration for jumping up and down in muddy puddles."

Another enthusiastic reviewer penned: "This show, no, this masterpiece, has flooded my mind with thought and astonishment. Countless hours I have spent pondering the fabric and creation of this program. Peppa Pig may be the greatest sight I have ever laid eyes on."

One commented: "Lovely lessons, gentle stories. My granddaughter has enjoyed Peppa from very tiny toddler and still watches them at 7 yrs old. The lessons on friendship are so important. It is so creative the way they use all the different animal characters."

"I genuinely enjoy this show. I love that the characters and story lines are very family oriented and that they deal with real life situations. To me, it teaches my almost 3 yr old how people should react in what could be potentially high stress situations. Everyone is always calm and talks things through with each other. As a Mom, I love that she sees a family relating to each other that way," a fourth remarked.

Despite its phenomenal popularity today, one of the programme's leading characters, Daddy Pig, previously disclosed that executives were once worried about audiences "getting on board with it".

Marking 20 years of the programme in 2004, voice actor Richard Ridings revealed to Metro that he had no inkling of the cultural sensation the series would eventually become.

"At the time I thought a family of pigs was a bit weird," he admitted. "But as soon as you see it, you get it, and hear the script and how witted they are, it does make sense."

He added: "I thought, I wanted to be involved even if it was tiny, but who could imagine it being so big across the world."

Peppa Pig is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video
