As it returns for a new, eight-part run, the heritage series looks at buildings inspired by animals, starting an animal-themed mini-evening of history. Kirsty Wark sees how hunting has laid the foundations for a wealth of lavish architecture, while Lucinda Lambton looks for Britain's grandest animal monuments and Dan Cruickshank assesses an avant-garde builder's contribution to architecture through his work at London Zoo.
