As you may have already heard, unfortunately the BBC has confirmed that there will be no second series of Our Zoo.
“We are very proud of Our Zoo and would like to thank all those involved,” a BBC spokesperson said. “However, in order to create room for new shows and to keep increasing the range of BBC One drama we sometimes have to make hard choices and it will not be returning for a second series.”
I have some HUGE photo and videos updates for you all! Not only have I uploaded clips and screencaptures from the most recent episodes of Our Zoo, I have also added Transformers 4: Age of Extinction updates to both the gallery and video vault as well!
So hands up … who is enjoying Our Zoo?! Such quality drama that can be enjoyed by all the family 😀 If you have been keeping an eye on the site or social media networks then you would have already seen that screencaptures and clips from episode 1 have been added (though I have been rubbish at keeping the main page updated!), and I have just uploaded the clips and screencaptures for this week’s episode so I hope you enjoy them!

Lady Katherine is an exotic misfit in Upton. A well-travelled woman, adventurous and charming, but living almost as a recluse after running from a scandalous event abroad. Her fascination with George’s grand design makes her a powerful muse to him. At times she understands what he’s trying to build better than his own wife. She breezes into the life of the Mottersheads, intriguing Mew and causing tension between George & Lizzie.
The first episode of Our Zoo will air on BBC One Wednesday 3rd September, 9pm
Episode One
Frustrated by living with his wife and two daughters under his parents’ roof and tormented by his war trauma, George decides to change his life and put a bit of beauty back into the world.
Haunted by memories of combat in the Great War, he now finds himself living with his wife and two daughters in his parents’ cramped home above the family grocery store. While delivering goods by the docks one day, he spots an unwanted squirrel monkey and a camel about to be put down in the quarantine bay. George can’t bear to let them suffer so takes them both home to his parents’ backyard instead – much to the family’s bewilderment.His family sees this as further evidence that he’s losing his mind, but George is busy making plans that will change their lives forever. On the way to an army reunion he comes across a rundown stately home, Oakfield, surrounded by acres of land, and he formulates the idea of buying it and building around it the first British zoo without bars.
Against the odds he persuades the bank to lend him the money to buy Oakfield. But once George has persuaded his sceptical family to move into their new ramshackle house, the whole family faces the tough task of convincing the genteel and hard-to-please villagers to accept them as neighbours. George thinks it best to keep the zoo plans secret, which becomes difficult when Mortimer the monkey escapes into the village.
I am happy to say that I have updated both the photo gallery and video vault with content Sophia’s latest role as Dr Anna Clarke in global crime drama Crossing Lines.
