Our Zoo

Deeply affected by his war trauma and driven by his unique love of animals, George attempts to build his dream - a zoo without bars. Cast: Lee Ingleby, Liz White.

George attempts to rescue two Himalayan black bears from a cave in Matlock, while Reverend Webb is intent on uncovering what the Mottersheads are up to.

The family confront a barrage of hostility from the residents of Upton, but a bunch of furry new arrivals at the zoo may change their minds.

When Adam the bear escapes, George is badly injured in the process of retrieving him. Dr Ford treats his injuries, but June is disturbed to learn how close her father was to death.

After the devastating news that planning permission for the zoo has been denied, George ventures to London with Lady Katherine for one last throw of the dice.

Everything hangs in the balance as the Mottersheads prepare for the appeal that will decide the fate of the zoo, but with tensions running high after the aviary is slashed, a hot-headed George proves more of a liability than an asset.
