1. Opening
The story of stand-up Tudur Owen's father opening a zoo in the 1980s and how it rather predictably got out of hand. From 2020.
Tudur Owen first brought us 'Where on Earth is Anglesey?', introducing us to his homeland, Ynys M么n and hinted at the rather unconventional goings-on there.
One such eccentric event is the incredible but true story of how he and his family somewhat unwittingly became the owners of what the News of the World would go on to describe as 鈥淭he Worst Zoo in Britain鈥.
Join Tudur for an engrossing caper about a corrupt animal wrangler, a family on the brink and a climactic wallaby chase across the Menai Strait.
All the events in this story are almost true.
Written and performed by Tudur Owen.
