THE DOG RESCUERS WITH ALAN DAVIES
Channel 5, 7pm
It can be an emotional rollercoaster watching this long-running series, which sheds light on the sometimes difficult work of RSPCA inspectors.
In the hands of other presenters it might be downbeat and depressing, but thanks to Alan Davies’ deft touch, it is informative and entertaining as well.
This week’s show features an injured saluki, which is found with a fractured leg so badly damaged it has to be removed. Meanwhile, Alan meets a Staffie cross suffering from a skin condition that needs attention.
