An eight-part series launched in May 2004. The show was first seen on BBC Three before switching to BBC Two. The zookeepers are busy dabbling in illegal boxing, experiments and much more in this first series.
Series 2 launched in the summer of 2005 and, for the first time ever, the episodes could be watched on the BBC website before they were shown on TV. Vince and Howard setup a band and setup some gigs in this second series.
The third series sees Vince and Howard working in Naboo's second hand shop in Dalston. Howard, unsuccessfully trying to sell his esoteric jazz records, mainly moons away the hours in delusions of grandeur while Vince lays around in a hammock playing loud music, trying on wigs and finding Howard ludicrous.
