4. Barbara considered herself a lion expert

During the first season they had a lion on set, and Barbara had worked with lions before so she offered the following advice: “You have to stand very still and let the lion smell you. Then, when he’s finished doing that, you should lean forward very, very gingerly and stroke him as gently as you can. That way, he’ll get to know you and everything will be fine.” Larry was not interested in bonding with the lion, and when he came on set the lion roared at him and he and some of the crew bolted.
