Our Zoo

[Icimoi]

Did anyone watch? Is it any good?

Just caught up with this week's episode. Enjoyed it, nice family viewing with 11 year old DD. What is the vicar's game?!

I dunno evil vicar who would have thought. Think he is probably pissed off his wife didnt get the house and his bil ran it to the ground. We are really enjoying it too its nice to sit and watch something together

I watched it with one of my kids and thought t was quite good family entertainment. Not sure how much poetic license there was but overall will watch again

I think its based rather than true facts altbough the place he got the beats from was a real place I read about it in another book

Love the penguins. Have allowed all 3 dcs to stay up late tonight to watch it. Even cynical DS1 who is 13 is enchanted

My 8 year old daughter saw an advert for this tonight and asked if she could watch it if I taped it, she loves animals - would it be suitable for an 8 year old?

I think it would be fine for an 8 year old, I dont know why the bbc puttit on at 9.

Yes it would be fine for an 8yr old its daft having it on at 9 I have not seen tonights yet but we have booked a travelodge to go to chester in October when dd1 is off school

I love this show! It makes me smile :)

I wonder if it's on late just because it deals with shell shock which could be upsetting to little ones? That's quite brief though.

Perhaps as he does have his moments must have been terrible for him

I've been wondering why it is on so late- it is perfect Sunday early evening telly, really. No idea why it is on so late- far worse things are shown in things like Eastenders.

The penguins were fab!

Anyone else's DC now want a pet penguin?

Never mind the dcs- i want one! Would fit nicely in the bath

Me too

I am really enjoying it, I have to keep reminding myself that it turns out they get to open their zoo. I get really cross with that sneaky vicar. DH said to me last night ' you know it is ok in the end, its still there'

I can't understand why it's on at 9pm mid week. It seems like ideal early Sunday evening television.

Yes you do see much worse at half 7 in the soaps sex drugs violence perfect family telly
