I translated an episode of the Polish version of The Nanny ("Niania")! 🇵🇱 (Fran Drescher officially called it her favorite adaptation!)
Hi everyone!
I know a lot of fans are curious about the international adaptations of The Nanny. The Polish version, titled "Niania", was a massive hit here—it ran for 9 seasons, but unfortunately, there are absolutely no English subtitles available online for non-Polish speakers to enjoy.
Fun fact about our version: Fran Drescher herself admitted that the Polish adaptation is the best one worldwide and her absolute favorite! She mentioned how much she loved that the Polish creators weren't afraid to change things up to fit our local culture and that they really expanded and developed the supporting characters. Fran even visited Poland for the premiere of our 100th episode and met our Polish Nanny! (I've attached a picture of them together from that event to this post).
Since no subtitles exist, I decided to change that and make them myself! I translated one of my absolute favorite episodes: "Wymarzone wakacje" (Dream Vacation).
Here is the link to the episode with English subs in HD on my google drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XBaEudMG1R_pLbMwzfLMwjXVDWt4BLyN/view?usp=sharing
Let me know what you think of our Polish Fran (Frania) and Mr. Sheffield (Maks)!
I am also super curious to hear your thoughts on our versions of C.C. Babcock (named Karolina) and Niles the butler (named Konrad).
Also, if you enjoy this and want to see more, let me know in the comments which classic episode or storyline from the original series you'd be most curious to see in the Polish version. If there's enough interest, I’ll try to translate it next! Enjoy!
