''All Creatures Great and Small'' is a British TV series based on the memoirs of [[James Herriot]] about his life as a veterinarian in the North Yorkshire town of Darrowby in the 1930s and beyond. The show ran from 1978 to 1980, had two [[Christmas Episode|Christmas Episodes]]
The show followed the lives of unassuming newly-fledged vet James Herriot; his temperamental but good-natured boss, Siegfried Farnon; Siegfried's laddish younger brother, Tristan; and James' eventual wife, Helen. The [[Revival]] added Calum Buchanan, a back-to-nature Scottish vet. Other recurring characters included Mrs. Hall, the invaluable housekeeper, and Mrs Pumphrey, the eccentric owner of a spoiled Pekinese.
