— O, various episodes |
O is the deuteragonist of Alphablocks. He is voiced by Lizzie Waterworth.
Appearance[]
He is an orange striped Alphablock. He has round eyes, and no nose, the only Alphablock with the latter distinction. He occasionally carries a magnifying glass with a dark-grey frame and a black handle.
Personality[]
O is very curious. Unlike the other Alphablocks, he is incapable of speaking normally; O can only go [ɒ]. (This normally means either his short sound [ɒ] or his long sound [əʊ]; the latter doubles as O's name, as heard in ABC. When O is linked with another Alphablock in a digraph, however, the two can pronounce their expected sound together: OI will say [ɔɪ], OR will say [ɔː], OO will say [uː] or [ʊ].) Despite his bizarre speech, some of the other Alphablocks can understand what O intends to say.
As of The Case of the Missing Blocks, he and One are friends.

Trivia[]
- When he sneezes, he says "Otchoo" instead of "Achoo".
- His “long vowel” episode is Home.
- O is the only Alphablock who only says his sound, long or short, and his name, in every episode he appears in.
- It appears that O says proper words sometimes, apparently by mistake. He "talks" normally in the other parts of said episodes.
- O is allergic to dogs, as seen in Cat, despite other episodes claiming otherwise, and also despite O not having a nose.
- Lizzie Waterworth, the voice actor of O, also did the voice for W.
- As the episode Fair had released on January 18th, 2013 and the episode was about O’s birthday, it's assumed that his birthday is around January 18th.
- Speaking of birthdays, he and T are the only Alphablocks to have a birthday.
- Besides [ɒ], his other words are "Otchoo" and "O", when he is not linked up with another Alphablock.
- In the Alphablocks storybook, Unlucky, digraph OO spoke English. O sounds like W.
- As of Series 6, O can speak properly if he is part of a letter team (excluding 'oo').
- O is the first Learningblock to be purely orange, followed by Two, Twenty, Twenty-Two, Two Hundred, Two Million, The Two Times Table, and Orange.
- The colour orange is important to the designs of O and Orange, as orange starts with the letter O and Orange is orange because it's her name.
- When an Alphablock connects with O, they will lose their ability to speak and will solely communicate using short or long O sounds. This is showcased in “Toad”.
