Fuck you Dave!
Loved it, loved the books, loved Peter Davison and wanted to marry him 
Plus it was set in the Dales (though further up than where we lived) which made it doubly if not quadrupably exciting

I was planning an All Creatures Great & Small evening with steak fajitas and everything.

Searching 'ACG&S' on YouTube gives you most (or all?) of this. Have watched a lot of late and while it is dated it is as I remembered. Forgot what a brilliant character Siegfried Farnon (played by Robert Hardy) was.
I loved Robert Hardy and I can remember the last episode where (I think) war was coming on and everything was going to change and Siegfried nd James were fishing and wondering what would be happening next. Left me in tears. It was Sunday evening chocolate but it was a lovely series.
It is his eccentric outbursts about the tiniest things that I really love. The odd old world they live in and how they struggle when the housekeeper goes away for a week is hilarious.

Oooh, I could look interested if there's fajitas involved
I know you said this a million years ago but, I think you would really quite like it Biddly.
I was worried that it would not be as good as I remembered but it is and it is really comforting for me on a troubled mind

The one where the WW2 is starting is the end of the 3rd series.
There is series 4 which is after the war and Herriot suddenly has 2 children about 8 and 11.

Last couple of episodes and have done the whole thing through again. It is really good
I may have bang up a couple of episodes as I have a week off
On the subject of 80s Peter Davidson, does anyone remember A very Peculiar Practice?

I remember this post All Creatures and being allowed to watch it and thinking it was most raunchy
(I would have been 9 or 10 when it started). I might have to have a nose at it again 
How have I not heard of this????

Bringing YOU round.....
Did you watch it?
Did you like it?
I just said my name to someone on the phone and it sound pretty much the same as one of the characters. I had totally forgotten this programme but she started humming the theme tune
I liked it, not sure if it will have stood the test of time though?
I loved it because at age 9 I really really wanted to be a vet. And Flambards-god I loved Flambards.
