About

A follow-up to the 1990 Radio 4 series in which the late Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine travelled around the world in search of endangered species. 20 years later Stephen Fry and Mark Carwardine go back to see what has become of the animals in two decades, and to discover what has affected their fortunes.

Part comedy road trip and part heartbreaking environmental audit, this series pairs witty banter with the sobering reality of vanishing habitats. Instead of dry lectures, you get a deeply personal quest to find the creatures that once thrived in the shadows of the previous decade.
