Introducing Hooked On Freddie, a new six-part podcast series from Wondery and Blanchard House.

This is the story of Freddie, a wild dolphin who one day in the late 1980s swims into the harbour of a grim northern fishing town, and turns the inhabitants’ worlds upside down.

Some believe Freddie the Dolphin has healing powers. Others say that he’s an alien. And everyone wants to swim with him. But Freddie chooses one person above all others - Alan Cooper, a passionate animal rights activist.

But one day Alan is accused of taking his passion WAY too far. It becomes a tabloid sensation that grips the country, and a court case that changes Alan’s life forever.
