Series 1, Episode 2 - Parrots For Ethel

Exotic Uncle Neville has come to stay, and William decides to give a lecture on 'intrestin' animals. But with only a dead dormouse and a caterpillar on the bill, things are not looking too promising.

Further details

Exotic Uncle Neville has come to stay and William is not the only member of the Brown family to be impressed by his exciting tales of the African Savannah. To prove to his mother that English animals can be just as interesting as African ones, William and the Outlaws decide to give a lecture of their own.

But with only a dead dormouse and a caterpillar on the bill, things aren't looking too thrilling. Whilst sister Ethel languishes in quarantine, her hapless suitors provide the perfect opportunity for a spot of parrot kidnapping - and William's talk suddenly becomes a lot more interesting.
