Martin Clunes sets off on a worldwide adventure to discover why the relationship between humans and dogs has lasted so long, and how this is changing in the 21st century, in a fascinating two part documentary - Martin Clunes: A Man and His Dogs.
He takes a wry and witty look why we are prepared to take the risk of sharing our homes with dogs who are genetically still 99.8 per cent like wolves.
This epic, dramatic and sometimes surreal journey takes Martin to Africa, Australia and America to find the surviving wild ancestors of pampered pets like his own beloved dogs, Mary, Tina and Arthur.
