Three female chimps rescued from a Dutch laboratory are moved to a new group led by Rodney. The siamang gibbons, Sage and Sam, discover they are to become parents and members of Paddy's group are shocked by their mirror reflections.

Staff at the Monkey World sanctuary in Dorset are forced to take a baby chimp away from its mother. Meanwhile, Sage the siamang gibbon goes into labour and three rescued laboratory chimps are introduced to Rodney's group - with explosive consequences.

There's an emergency in the wildlife sanctuary as Sage, a siamang gibbon, undergoes a Caesarean section. Elsewhere, chimpanzee Seamus is introduced to his new family - but foster sister Evelyn is jealous.

A newcomer arrives at the park, Jimmy is separated from Johnnie following his unprovoked attack and a visitor tells the staff about an orphaned chimp living in Saudi Arabia.

Siamang gibbons Sage and Sam play happy families with baby Onion at Europe's largest ape rescue centre, Monkey World in Dorset.

Young gibbon Onion gains his independence, and Paddy loses his temper. Meanwhile, an orang-utan bonds with her offspring.

Three-year-old orphaned chimp Tutti flies into the nursery from Saudi Arabia. The team struggles when Jason the ugly monkey breaks his arm and needs it setting in plaster, while a snake in the grass upsets the tranquility of Paddy's posse.

Jim and Alison Cronin are stunned by what they witness during their travels around Thailand, while back in Dorset nursery boss Sally is thrilled to meet playful Saudi Arabian chimp Tutti.

Jim and Alison Cronin are faced with a dilemma when Olympia's milk dries up, and eventually realise they have to take baby chimp Hebe away. Charlie is diagnosed with arthritis, and a newborn gibbon overcomes a traumatic start in life.

Jim and Alison Cronin visit a Taiwanese rescue centre for endangered species, home to an array of animals such as tigers, gibbons and orang-utans - all of which were originally kept as family pets. Back at Monkey World, babies Hebe and Johni are introduced to each other.

The staff are baffled when a smuggled gibbon arrives at the sanctuary and Hebe and Johni are less than pleased when introduced to baby chimp Eddi.

im Cronin visits Turkey in search of Carli, the country's most famous primate, who appeared in the Jungle Book movie, and then his own TV series, in which he was trained to wear human clothes, kiss his leading ladies and deliver amusing antics right on cue. But his fame has led to an increase in the demand for pet monkeys, which in turn has meant an increase in the illegal trade of poaching and importing wild-caught chimps. Can Jim persuade Carli's owners to give up their money-spinning monkey for the safety of a new home in the UK?
