It’s back! All Creatures Great and Small starts again on the 19th September 2024 at 9pm on Channel 5!
The veterinary drama is based on the early career of veterinary surgeon, James Herriot, played by Nicholas Ralph. Herriot’s real name was Alf Wight but he used the pen name of James Herriot.
Callum Woodhouse will be back as Tristan Farnon, after time away serving in the Royal Army Veterinary Corps. And we meet Helen (Rachel Shenton) and James’ baby, too! Siegfried Farnon (Samuel West) becomes more and more reliant on Richard Carmody, who is played by James Anthony-Rose).
In Episode 1, To all our boys, vet James Herriot is grounded in the RAF and faces an uncertain future.
