VIEWERS of Lorraine have been suggesting names for one of the new tiger cubs at West Midlands Safari Park.
On her ITV show, Lorraine Kelly said the keepers at the Bewdley attraction "need our help" to name one of the male cubs.
On Wednesday morning, viewers had the chance to send in their suggestions beginning with 'N', as per the safari park's naming rules.
Lorraine will be revealing the name of the cub on Thursday morning (March 20).
Suggesting a name herself, Lorraine said on the ITV show: "I was thinking Niles from Frasier.
"I am going to choose the winning name tomorrow".
Lorraine also revealed she has had the pleasure of visiting the safari park and staying in one of the tiger lodges.

She said: "I've actually been lucky enough to go there.
"Look how close you are to the tigers. That's me sitting there in the morning in my pyjamas. What a thrill, what a joy.
"It was an amazing experience it really was".
A tiny trio of tiger cubs arrived at the safari park in January, to mum, 13-year-old Dourga.
A health check, carried out by the Park’s experienced veterinary team and keepers, confirmed that there are two girls and a boy.
They also weighed the cubs, checked them over, took identification pictures and gave them their first vaccinations, so that they were ready to venture into the outdoors for the first time.
Now keepers know the sex of the cubs, they have chosen the name ‘Nova’ for one of the girls and the remaining two cubs will have names chosen by the public.
