Doctor Dolittle

on BBC Two England

Family musical starring Rex Harrison

Doctor Dolittle has abandoned his human practice to treat only animals, learning 500 animal dialects from a parrot and becoming the proud possessor of a pushmi-pullyu! But his greatest ambition is to find the elusive great pink sea snail. Songs include "Talk to the Animals" and "I've Never Seen Anything Like It."
(1967) (Subtitled)
