Synopsis
A panel game about animals.
Kate Humble asks difficult questions of Chris Packham and Lucy Cooke. Joined by a second panellist, the teams engage with rounds including:
- Yay or Neigh - true-or-false questions.
- Is it Bigger than a Chicken? - a Twenty Questions-style round, where "yes" responses earn a small piece of a photo of today's animal.
- Who's the Daddy? - pictures of baby animals.
- Life on Earth - a video clip, followed by a question.
- Whose Poo? - deduce which animal left these droppings.
- Pecking Order - put three species in order.
A correct answer will earn a part of a "Curious Creature", an animal made up from bits of other animals. This final round is the only scored one, and determines the day's winner.
Set in a bright studio, the teams sit in front of video screens like on QI. Curious Creatures has a calm and sensible atmosphere, teams share what they know like in Eggheads. This is good, as the show airs immediately after Eggheads.
