Zoo days at Colchester
20-02-2008

Does any know whether they plan to do any other zoo's aswell as Chester and Colchester?

21-02-2008

Does this mean that zoo days wont be back at Chester, thats a shame. I'd like to see Zoo Days next at Marwell or Edinburgh if they change zoo every series

21-02-2008

Chester is getting a second series that is being shown next month

21-02-2008

The new series of Zoo Days (Chester) is on Five every weekday at 6.30pm from Monday 3rd March.

I may be wrong but I thought the new series started the 10th... i thought the episode listing for monday was Tejas cant walk and needs splints...

Probably my dodgy eyes lol

Zoo Days at Colchester starts on Monday......

06-06-2008

Im rather looking forward to it.

So has anyone been watching the new series?

And what do people think?

Cholchester certainly looks an interesting zoo, that I would like to visit.

11-06-2008

Have been watching indeed. It seems Zola may be the Colchester version of Tejas and be in most episodes, but i think that would be a good thing she's a very interesting animal.
The Rocky Mountain Goats tonight were interesting tonight as were the Aarvarks, in the fact i think this episode was a lot better than yesterday. Hopefully a few birds and less major animals will be shown aswel as the Elephants, Rhinos and Lions and so onwards. Konniw Huq is very annoying though, will someone tell me the point of why she is there.

11-06-2008

Yes todays episode was much better than yesterdays.

Konniw Huq - wasn't she on blue peter? I find i strange they need to show her a few times a program, whats wrong with the good old voice over so we can see more time of the interesting animals.

It is also quite keeper orientated with them exlaining the background of them and their qualifications!

Shame even if Zola is an interesting animal that the ending will not be a happy one, considering she lost the baby (Am sure I read that somewhere)

11-06-2008

I agree we should have the voiceover instead of them showing her every now and then. Its actually Konnie Huq, just that i was typing too quickly.

Such a shame that she loses the baby in the end.

Will they be repeating the episodes as i would love to see the rocky mountain goat, what is their enclosure like is it very naturalistic?

11-06-2008

I think the rocky mountain goats are kept in the children's farm area. They have maybe an earth mound but there isn't really any appropriate landscaping .

11-06-2008

They seem to be "happy" enough, they seem to be breeding well

11-06-2008

Am sure they will be repeated at some stage. Channel 5 really do like their half an hour animal time slot, so much that I think I have seen the first two series (based at chester) twice!
