Season 10
Summer Special 2016

Episodes
Episode 1
Ben and Kate re-enact the moment 50 lions were unveiled to the British public.
Meanwhile, at the giraffe house, there is a tense wait as Ella prepares to give birth. Will the keepers need to step in and save her baby?
And world-famous wildlife photographer Simon King attempts to take a snap of Longleat's Siberian tiger.
Episode 2
New recruit Jean Johansson discovers whether tigers like their eggs scrambled, fried or simply savaged.
Meanwhile, the programme looks back at how the local vet 50 years ago adjusted from treating sheep and cows to lions and snakes.
There also a heart-wrenching report on Anne, a mistreated circus elephant who could barely lift her trunk five years ago, but who has been looked after by three very special keepers.
Episode 3
The summer weather has caused the cheetahs to become lazy. To snap them out of their slumber, a contraption is being constructed that could ignite their hunting mode. But, able to hit speeds of up to 70 miles per hour, can the keepers make anything quick enough to truly test the cats?
Episode 4
The park opened in an attempt to save the enormous estate from financial ruin, but today it is the conservation of animal species that is the priority. World-renowned vets are racing to the park to try and kick-start the rhino breeding programme, and the stakes could not be higher. With the slaughter of white rhino continuing in the wild, what goes on in the Wiltshire countryside today could not be more important.
Episode 5
In the final episode, Ben Fogle gets mobbed by a flock of rainbow-coloured lorikeets as they undergo a vital healthcheck. Meanwhile, Kate Humble gets an extremely close-up view of the collection of giant stick insects by using a special camera. Elsewhere, the park is on lockdown as it prepares to move over 30 lions, the biggest collection in Europe, into a new enclosure. But the keepers have no idea how the big cats will react.

Emmerdale
Emmerdale is a British soap focusing on the lives of several families and locals living around an estate, a farm and the nearby village in the Yorkshire Dales. It is the second longest British soap in television history since airing its first episode on ITV in 1972, as 'Emmerdale Farm', the show was renamed in 1989.
Malcolm in the Middle
In the words of They Might Be Giants' rollicking Grammy-winning theme song, "life is unfair." The inventive and wholly original sitcom Malcolm in the Middle has been honored with a Peabody Award and Emmys for directing and writing, but if life was fair, it would have earned an Emmy for Best Comedy Series, not to mention statuettes for its pitch-perfect cast. With his perpetual "yes, me worry" expression, Frankie Muniz instantly earns audience empathy as Malcolm, whose chances for a normal life are thwarted not only by his genius IQ, but also by his outrageously dysfunctional family: Lois, his obsessive, control-freak mother; Hal, his loving but ineffectual father; Francis, his eldest brother waging his own private war at military school; middle brother Reese, a delinquent savant; and Dewey, the put-upon youngest. As Malcolm observes at one point, "This family may be rude, loud and gross, and have no shame whatsoever, but with them you know where you stand."
Coronation Street
Coronation Street is the story of working people and the city street in which they live. The show has been seen all around the world and has remained in the top viewing ratings throughout its long lifetime.
