Anna Madeley, Samuel West, Nicholas Ralph, Rachel Shenton, and Callum Woodhouse in All Creatures Great & Small (2020)
Since their first publication in 1970, the beloved books of James Alfred Wight, published under the pen name James Herriot, have held a special place in people’s hearts throughout the world. Chronicling the heartwarming and humorous adventures of a young country vet, the books introduced readers to his unconventional mentor and the cast of farmers and townsfolk who lived and worked in the Yorkshire Dales in the 1930s.

This new television adaptation will preserve the rich spirit, tone and values of Herriot’s iconic characters and stories and will bring to life his sharply observed, entertaining and incredibly funny tales of country life in the North of England for a modern audience, introducing a new generation to his life-affirming stories.

    Turned down by the BBC, big mistake.

    The BBC apparently turned down the opportunity of making this programme/series as it did not tick the correct boxes for their target audience. What a big mistake. Yes it is a remake and that is always risky but so far it's been like a breath of fresh air. There's no politics, no social agenda, it's just pure family entertainment set in a beautiful part of England.

    Loved it!

    This is such a sweet and comfy thing to watch. Enjoyed it from the very first episode. Well-written, nice acting, and beautiful scenery. I wouldn't say that this is a remake of the BBC series. Rather, it's a new take on the books by James Herriot. And while the BBC series may be more faithful to the books, this series is basically what it says on the tin: "based on". They take plots from Herriot's stories and adapt them for the episodes, often making them more dramatic than it was originally in the books, but the gentle, humorous spirit is there. Looking forward to season 2!

    Very good series

    It's difficult these days to find a series that does not have violence or sex as main components of the storyline. Not that I don't enjoy that too. But this series is wonderful with a nice story, well acted, transporting the viewer to a different time. Very enjoyable.

    Pleasantly surprised

    After watching the original series, my hopes for this remake were not high. I am happy to say how wrong I was, captured the setting perfectly and a good group of actors playing the characters so far. I am pretty impressed with Samuel West as Siegfried Farnon, definitely the stand out character here.

    I look forward to what the series will bring next...

    I wasn't expecting that.

    I think it's fair to say that some, myself included wrote this off before it had even aired, Channel five hasn't really been known for original drama. I was definitely wrong, it's a great watch.

    Channel Five has a real winner with his show, it is truly the tonic we need for 2020, it's uplifting, sentimental, it has a real feel good factor.

    A winner in all areas, great stories, terrific acting, and a warmth that has been lacking in shows for some time.

    How lovely to see Diana Rigg appear, ahead of her tragic death.

    Bang on the money, 9/10.
