'Tigers about the house' BBC2

Has anyone been watching this on BBC2.

I don't like Zoos but there are very few Sumatran tigers left in existence and the ones we see reared in an Australian zoo are part of a very important conservation project.

We get to see the cubs Spot and Stripe born and reared with the help of a lovely man called Giles

It was lovely but quite sad in parts. What a lovely family that reared them.

Not being at home with my Sky I couldn't watch all that I wanted this week, so only got to see part of one episode (forgot it was on). I will definitely watch it when I get home on my Virgin TV catch up.

I thought the whole family was nice.

I emailed the Zoo in Australia to ask if there was a DVD of the programme available. They answered me within 12 hours - thanked me for my interest and invited to me to visit any time I happened to be in Australia - but, no, there was not a DVD. They said that the BBC owned the copyright.

So, I emailed the BBC - over a week ago! Have I had the courtesy of a reply? No! What a difference!
