Plot Synopsis

Narrated by Helen Mirren and based on the UK series WALK ON THE WILD SIDE, WHEN NATURE CALLS WITH HELEN MIRREN is a one-hour unscripted comedy series that features comedians putting words into the mouths of beautiful beasts, teeny-tiny frogs, beatboxing badgers and more in footage from all over the world. The series opener, "Let's Begin at the Beginning," with celebrity guest voice Christopher Mintz-Plasse, examines a supermodel lemur, a thousand-year-old fairy fish trying to find someone in 2021 who wants to make a wish, the new hit game show "Wolf or Rock," and a crab who writes erotic fiction.
