The Roy Files

Episode 11: Pets and Animals

First broadcast: on CBBC ChannelLatest broadcast: on CBBC Channel

In this chapter of his scrapbook, Roy discusses how much he loves animals of all shapes and sizes. Roy introduces us to Derek, his cute and loveable pet cockroach, as he imagines himself surrounded by many exotic animals, even if he's not quite sure what they look like. Roy has an affinity with animals and thinks they should be treated fairly - like the time he let the frogs escape into the wild to avoid the science project by Mr Hammond. Roy remembers accidentally turning into a gorilla and a dog and learns that owning a pet requires responsibility. He eventually settles for a pet goldfish called Rover. Although it never quite works out the way Roy wants it to, Roy always has the best time hanging out with the animals, be they insects or amphibians! And it helps that they gross out Becky! Show less
