LONG ABSENCE Ben and Kate

Ben Fogle and Kate Humble are back for another series following the lives of the exotic animals at Longleat Safari Park.

Tomorrow’s episode starts with the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak — and the park must close its doors for one of the longest periods since it opened in 1966.

Keepers worked hard to protect the animals from infection and to make sure they were fed and entertained in lockdown.

As restrictions ease, Kate has an emotional tiger cub reunion and marvels at how they’ve grown.

Animal Park, BBC One, tomorrow, 10am
