WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Having found their way onto Noah’s Ark, young animal friends Finny (Carolan) and Leah (Connolly) are enjoying themselves despite the growing tensions between carnivores and herbivores. After a few mishaps, the two find themselves adrift with the last of the food supplies, eventually landing on a remote island where they discover a colony of Finny’s species. Nonetheless, the two friends must embark on a race against time to rescue their fellow animals and reunite with their families…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The underground animated family hit Two by Two – about some of the animals that nearly didn’t make it onto Noah’s Ark – gets a follow-up with plenty of colourful new gags and high-spirited adventures.
