- Synopsis:
Based on James Herriot's autobiographical best sellers 'If Only They Could Talk' and 'It Shouldn't happen To A Vet', 'All Creatures Great and Small' kick started the Herriot hysteria that culminated in a long running TV series. 'All Creatures Great and Small' is an insight into the first few years in the life of a newly qualified country vet during the thirties. James Herriot (Simon Ward) arrives at a tiny village in the beautiful Yorkshire hills where he is to begin work as assistant to the eccentric local vet Siegfried Farnon (Sir Anthony Hopkins). Together they battle the mistrust of the local farmers and 'patients' that range from pampered pooches to pregnant ponies and soon become popular members of the close-knit rural community. - Actors:
