Lulu & Sarge in the Bee-sting Operation

Loading player...
Lulu & Sarge are a dachshund duo who are on a mission to solve crimes in the animal kingdom. Their first mission is to take on bullying bees who are stealing from fellow-worker’s hives. Even in the heat of fur-raising crime-raids, the little Sarge is keenly aware of obeying her gut feel, reminding the ambitious DCI Lulu that stopping off for ice-cream is as important as saving the planet. Written and read by Amanda Horwitz.
