Meerkat Sir Alan looks for an apprentice, some lizard punks spend the Bank Holiday reliving their youth, and a Geordie anteater guides us through the complex world of ant cuisine. With Rolf Harris playing a koala.
A preaching bird and more feature in the second episode.

A gorilla with flatulence, meerkats re-enacting The Apprentice, eagles who think they're starring in a Harry Potter film: it's all very silly, very funny and absolutely perfect Saturday teatime viewing. If you missed it last week, Walk on the Wild Side is a revamped version of Animal Magic, the show where Johnny Morris did comedy voiceovers to accompany footage of zoo animals. If you did see it last week, you'll be pleased to know that the marmot who repeatedly calls out to his friend Alan makes a return appearance. Hysterical.
