Really enjoyed that, excellent family drama and I think it compliments its lead in (Bake Off) well. I definitely don't trust that reverend, but it's always good to see Stephen Campbell Moore. It'll be interesting how they pace this, if it's a hit BBC will want it to continue for a good few series. I can see the zoo opening at the end of the series, but I imagine there's a lot of drama to made out of maintaining it etc. Quote:
Enjoyable television but surely it's more suited to a Sunday night spot?

A quality series which I really enjoyed! Both the GBBO and this make for a great Wednesday evening's viewing. Roll on next week.

It ties in well with the WWI commemorations, 'lest we forget' that shell shock was not something easily thrown off.

Brilliant Drama .. heartwarming , touching ..always good to see the talented Lee Ingelby, Liz White, Stephen Campbell Moore onTV and the rest of the cast were good aswell ..! Well done BBC !.....Also a few Life on Mars links Lee Ingelby (sams father) Liz White (Annie) and Peter Wight (albert) who was the Mill owner in series one !..and Stephen Campbell Moore and Liz White played sister and brother in a Short Stay in Switzerland with Julie Walters !

I thought they might worry about things like animal cruelty and animals being put down so felt 2100h was better but could not see anything last night that would disturb most kids. They seem to have gone to a lot of trouble on period details though sure someone will find a minor error! As was said on The One Show, the actress playing the little girl is very good. |

Everything about it was entertaining. I want to see more of them all, even bossy matriarch Anne Reid so I'll be watching again.

Really enjoyed the first episode, am sure it's dramatised but they must have been nutters to do this. still a fantastic zoo today but i remember it even better in the 70s when the zoo had far more animals living in big open cages. especially Siberian tigers etc.

Really enjoyed that. Great cast, and the little girl playing June was brilliant, cute and no overacting in sight!
And, I could hear the actors speak, no mumbling, so it CAN be done! |

Really enjoyed this last night. Even tho I was not a fan of Lee Ingelby in George Gently he is very likable in this.
The place where this was filmed is amazing. I will have to find out where it is. My only picky bit is were those type of head collars about in that time? I thought they only had rope halters.

I watched it round my mother's house and the first thing she said was that it was like something that should have been on a Sunday night. I liked the trailer but thought it all looked a bit ITV.
The night watchman from the film Naked has put on a hell of a lot of weight. Didn't he recently get wasted in Utopia as well? There were many faces I saw that made me think, "what the hell have I seen them in?" The young woman had been in something recent and I'm damned if I can remember what it was. Edit: It was Life On Mars. |

I've just looked her up (Liz White) and the only thing I could possibly have seen her in was The Crimson Petal and the White.

The wife? I think she was in the recent drama (forgot the title) that Philip Glennister was in, maybe.

Loved this. I'm glad its not on a Sunday, cosy dramas can be on other days of the week too!
Liked Ingleby in this role and the animals are fab. Looking forward to seeing how it all pans out. |
