owner and ringmaster of the Whirling Brothers<br />
circus, climbed under the foundations of the<br />
building with nothing more than a broom stick<br />
to try and coax the lion out!<br />
Police were very critical of the number of<br />
spectators, including parents with young<br />
children who stood around idly enjoying the<br />
spectacle as the lions roamed the reserve.<br />
Two young cyclists proved a particular<br />
nuisance to the police as they chased one of<br />
the lions up Memorial Drive.<br />
Efforts by circus staff, armed police, veterinary<br />
surgeons and members of Rotorua’s other<br />
emergency services were hindered by the<br />
crowds who thronged the area as if in an<br />
African safari park.<br />
Eventually all the lions were recaptured<br />
without shooting them.<br />
Who killed Lucy the poodle?.<br />
So who threw Lucy in with the lions? It’s a<br />
question that has consumed Kent since the day<br />
he witnessed the escape in 1986.<br />
Now Kent is digging deeper into this<br />
unbelievable true story, launching his own<br />
amateur investigation to find the identity of<br />
the perpetrator. Official reports of the time<br />
suggested street kids were to blame, but as<br />
Kent investigates further, new theories emerge.<br />
Talking to former circus performers, journalists<br />
and police, Kent sets out on a journey to<br />
crack open this unsolved case and answer the<br />
question, who killed Lucy the poodle?<br />
Mentored by former Police Ten 7 favourite<br />
Detective Sergeant Graham Bell, Kent uncovers<br />
a spiralling list of suspects and a compelling<br />
story that proves truth really is stranger than<br />
fiction.<br />
The documentary concluded that it is highly<br />
probable that an inquisitive poodle could easily<br />
be snatched up by the paws of a lion through<br />
the feeding flap that was found to be left open.<br />
Who killed Lucy the poodle is a bizarre, funny,<br />
distinctly Kiwi tale and it’s unlike anything<br />
you’ve seen before.<br />
The full season of Who Killed Lucy the Poodle?<br />
will be available (within New Zealand)<br />
exclusively on TVNZ OnDemand (for as long<br />
as they screen it). Or you can get an 18 minute<br />
overview of the documentary on YouTube<br />
