Bluey’s ‘cool dad’ Bandit doesn’t impress his own kids as voice star admits they’re ‘embarrassed’ by him

Bandit may be celebrated as television’s ultimate “cool dad”, but the reality at home is very different. Dave McCormack, the voice behind Bluey’s famously playful father, admits his own children once liked to show off about his role on the hit show — but are now very much over it.

“My kids always say, ‘little do they know’ when we’re in a shop and someone’s wearing Bluey stuff,” he told the Standard. “But they don’t show off about it anymore — they’re embarrassed by me now. It’s not Bandit who’s uncool. It’s just me.”
