BBC Schools | Watch: Summer [Seasons] (1994) - FULL EPISODE

Jessica Holm talks us through summer, the season of shorts and T-shirts and ice-creams on a park bench. But here we're more interested in the sheep-shearing and grass-cutting that's going on, plus footage of a dormouse giving birth, some bees getting on with their hive activities, and even a lime tree in a London park. I believe this episode was originally broadcast in the early weeks of 1994. Did you know wheat is a type of grass? It's one of those things that I suppose I think I sort of knew, but didn't really.
