Little Frank, Goldie and Myrrh will be among those taking starring roles at the ''meerkat nativity'' at St Andrews Aquarium.

The latest trio are part of a rapidly expanding meerkat clan at the attraction. The young meerkats will be joined by parents Kate and Wills and no fewer than five brothers and sisters in their very own nativity.

John Mace, manager of the aquarium, said: ''The latest meerkats are the third litter born to Kate and Wills this year.

''They are in for a bit of a surprise as we transform their enclosure, which is currently decorated in a desert setting, to incorporate a nativity theme.''

The show will launch on Saturday November 12.
