Here is another quiz I got from local radio.

Name a well-known animal, however not fictitious ones, or those who act in films eg Lassie or Skippie.

So for starters Burmas the Bear born at London Zoo in 1949.

Wasn’t Pickles the dog who found the World Cup?
There was also a gorilla called Lomie with Guy in London Zoo.

And wasn’t Petra the first Blue Peter dog?

( And,to digress slightly, remember Daniel, the Blue Peter baby?)

I've met a few celebrities but none so fantastic as when I was a child and met Jason the Blue Peter cat!
