THERE was plenty of animal magic when BBC Radio 1 rocked up at Chester Zoo this morning (Wednesday, July 21).
As part of Radio 1's Summer Breakout, breakfast presenter Greg James has had to work out a number of clues before being allowed to 'break out' of the campervan which has been touring locations across the UK.

And on Wednesday, as Greg peeled back the blinds to the campervan, listeners heard him say: "Oh my God...that is....that's elephants. That's a zoo!"
He and co-presenters Vick Hope and Jordan North then enjoyed taking in what the zoo has to offer, with Vick enjoying a rare opportunity to feed the giraffes some breakfast and interviewing keepers about the work that goes on at the hugely popular animal attraction.
