About This Program

The series is a collection of five distinct episodes – Calamity Cat, Dogs Versus Cats, The World’s Most Dangerous Picnic, A Day with Scoop Dooley and Call of the Mud Men. Each instalment is presented as a self‑contained programme, classified under the genre “episode”, and follows a light‑hearted, documentary‑style format that centres on animals and the people who interact with them. In Calamity Cat, Mandy volunteers to mind Miss Pawdry, insisting she’s good with animals, only for the cat to slip away and end up drifting toward the sea in a basket. Dogs Versus Cats sees Mandy and Sarah filming a comparison of the two species; the cats initially dominate, but a kitchen fire gives the dog Nipper a chance to prove himself. At The World’s Most Dangerous Picnic on Annie’s farm, Peter devises a string of games that nearly turn disastrous, while Lizzie and Jodie hunt for a rare seal. A Day with Scoop Dooley follows Sarah and Mandy as they shoot a segment for the Scoop Dooley Show, with Scoop himself trying to make everything more “sensational”. Finally, in Call of the Mud Men, Moose attempts to rescue Luc, a wild boar, but ends up needing a rescue of his own. These episodes blend humour with a touch of adventure, each focusing on a different animal‑related challenge. The narratives are driven by the protagonists’ attempts to manage unpredictable situations—whether it’s a runaway cat, a kitchen blaze, a risky picnic, a sensationalist TV crew, or a boar rescue gone awry. The series therefore offers a varied look at how ordinary people cope when nature decides to intervene.
