Animal Hospital, hosted by Australian singer Rolf Harris and featuring a fly-on-the-wall look at British vets in practice, featured a visit by Rolf to the set of Tomb Raider, confirmed by this post on movie magazine Dark Horizons..

"Whilst watching a Christmas Day episode of 'Animal Hospital', hosted by Rolf Harris, he paid a visit to the set of Tomb Raider to witness a day's filming which used a pack of husky dogs. They were being used as part of a high speed chase scene on husky sleds through what was described as a 'snowy Siberian glacier' style set, with huge stalagmites and stalactites everywhere. There was lots of machine gun fire in evidence, but sadly no Angelina Jolie, but several black boiler suit clad bad guys riding the sleds about tight corners - nothing like this can be seen in the first trailer".
