Episode 4: Cousin Botany's Secret
It's not easy building an oil rig out of objects found on Wimbledon Common, and even less easy to make it stay put. Performed by Richard E Grant, directed by Johnny Vegas.
The Wombles live under Wimbledon Common, and it is their special responsibility to 'tidy up' everything that untidy human beings leave behind.
In this third audiobook in the series, the Wombles are back at their old burrow underneath Wimbledon Common. There's a Womble world shortage of 'this and that' and Great Uncle Bulgaria is called over to America to attend a crisis summit. Back home, a visit from Cousin Botany is full of surprise and new invention.
Full of fun and warmth, with an underpinning environmental message, The Wandering Wombles is based on the original books by Elisabeth Beresford, performed by Richard E Grant, directed by Johnny Vegas and nestled in a new soundscape for all the family to enjoy.
