On Television
Neil Buchanan went to visit Port Lympne to do a big Art Attack of one of the animals he saw. He drew a tiger, an ape, a lion, giraffes, and a hippo. This was shown from Series 12-16. The BBC children's television series Roar was filmed at Port Lympne and Howletts, and was broadcast on BBC Two and the CBBC channel. The programmes went behind the scenes at the two parks, following the keepers as they tended to the animals. Two series of Roar have been broadcast to date. The first was filmed in summer 2006, the second in summer and autumn 2007.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“There is no question but that if Jesus Christ, or a great prophet from another religion, were to come back today, he would find it virtually impossible to convince anyone of his credentials ... despite the fact that the vast evangelical machine on American television is predicated on His imminent return among us sinners.”
—Peter Ustinov (b. 1921)
“The television critic, whatever his pretensions, does not labour in the same vineyard as those he criticizes; his grapes are all sour.”
—Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)
