Watched it - the animatronics were amazing - pity the camera team got "first credits" whereas the animatronics team most certainly should have done!
Especially for the expression on the face of the "spy tortoise" when a real one tried to mate with it and then there was the bushbaby in the tree trunk - and the expressions/actions of the other spies were hilarious at times as well !:-rofl2
PS to Lazarus: not spoilers - just "something to look forward to" :D

Were you referring to the "lady" in the tree expelling her "detritus" straight at the camera? :D

I found the sequence with the monkeys seeming to grieve over the non-moving robot very moving. And similarly the giraffes seeming to pay their respects to a dead one.

The program showed both humour and pathos in roughly equal measure - we will be watching the next one.
