Words and Pictures: FR (1994) - FULL EPISODE

Michael Hobbs introduces us to a freezing frog in the frost and a freckled friend in a frilly frock. It's the letters FR! There are plenty of wildlife shots of frogs (which may not be for the overly-squeamish) as we learn about the life cycle of amphibians, the story is Frog in Winter by Max Velthuijs, and we end on a song based around a group sitting on a speckled log - you know the one I mean. Fascinating episode, though I really must question the wisdom of showing a tadpole actually being eaten, given the target age. Or maybe I'm the snowflake.
