Series One is finished 😢 but we can keep the team in our hearts with this amazing #inktober #fanart by luvnotpercival.tumblr.com!
There might be something seasonal on the horizon, so don’t despair!

The zoo’s closing down so it makes sense this is the last episode, right?
We hope you’ve enjoyed Series One. We’d love to make a Series Two, so follow us to hear all the latest updates about fundraising and merch.

What a lovely way to start the working week, with a comparison to @johnfinnemore.bsky.social’s Cabin Pressure!

![Keeping The Zoo - 1 (First Impression) - 5 (Shedding Skins): this is the spiritual successor to Cabin Pressure. Keeping the Zoo is my favourite new British comedy. It’s sarcastic, eccentric and a massive mood-boost. Michelle is so type A, Alan is hilarious and I love The Students. If you like Minkowski and Eiffel’s dynamic from Wolf 359 you’ll probably get emotionally attached to this podcast really quickly, but instead of existential terror, there are animals! Sure the zoo is at risk of closing down, but the people who work there clearly love what they do… in a way.

Episode Five is out! This week, Alan’s helpfulness is unnerving all the staff. Can a leopard changes his spots? And do we really want them to?

Every zoo needs someone in charge, even this one. The always-excellent Ben Evans has the dubious honour of making sure that the visitors keep coming, the paperwork is order and there are no silly shenanigans from staff or animals. It's a good thing he doesn't mind a thankless task.

Where would a zoo be without its announcer? The woman behind our loudspeaker is the talented Katya Petrova, and she will battle any tongue-twister to make sure you don’t miss the show.

This is Kim, brought to life with style by Mash Muravina. She works with Evelyn in the Zoo cafe, but she seems to be in a world of her own most of the time.
She’s curious and enthusiastic about pretty much everything, and brings joy and light wherever she goes. The ideal colleague?

Evelyn, played to perfection by Türkü Köksel, works at the Zoo cafe. She’s young, smart and full of potential. You’d think she’d be bored in this job, and yet it seems like she might even enjoy it.

Say hello to Michelle, played by the exceptionally talented Jazz Desmond.
She’s changing her life and needs somewhere that can offer routine, structure and discipline. So why is she spending so much time at a zoo where the animals are less chaotic than the people?

Meet the team! This is Alan, voiced by Denis Burke.
He loves puzzles, coffee, lounging & relaxing. Unfortunately, he’s in charge if an animal escapes.
He’s recently lost his longterm teammate, but that doesn’t bother him much, at all, actually. He’s bound to get along with his replacement, right?
