  • All Creatures Great and Small is a British television series made by the BBC and based on the books of the British veterinary surgeon Alf Wight, who wrote under the pseudonym James Herriot. The title aired over seven series, totalling 90 episodes, from 1978 to 1990. A remake premiered in 2020. Set in the Yorkshire Dales and beginning in the mid-1930s, it stars Christopher Timothy as Herriot, Robert Hardy as Siegfried Farnon (based on Donald Sinclair), the proprietor of the Skeldale House surgery, and Peter Davison as Siegfried's "little brother", Tristan (based on Brian Sinclair). Herriot's wife, Helen (based on Joan Wight), was initially played by Carol Drinkwater and in the latter series by Lynda Bellingham. The series was produced throughout its run by Bill Sellars. In early 1977, the BBC tasked him with the creation of a television series from Herriot's first two novels, If Only They Could Talk (1970) and It Shouldn't Happen to a Vet (1972), using the title of the 1975 film adaptation. It is part of a series of movies and television series based on Herriot's novels. The Herriot novels were written in an episodic style, with each chapter generally containing a short story within the ongoing narrative of Herriot's life. This format greatly facilitated their adaptation for a television series. The series had two runs: the original (1978 to 1980, based directly on Herriot's books) was for three series; the second (1988 to 1990, filmed with original scripts but generally regarded as a continuation of the 1978 series) for four. A total of ninety episodes was broadcast. The supporting cast, both recurring and one-offs, numbers over 600, most of whom appear as farmers or clients of the surgery. In 2020, a remake, also titled All Creatures Great and Small, was produced by Playground Entertainment for Channel 5 in the United Kingdom and PBS in the United States. (en)

  • I vår herres hage (originaltitel: All Creatures Great and Small) är en brittisk TV-serie som bestod av 90 avsnitt och spelades in under sammanlagt sju säsonger 1977–1990. Serien är baserad på verkliga händelser, återgivna av James Herriot (pseudonym) i ett antal böcker om hans liv som veterinär på landet i engelska Yorkshire från 1937 och framåt. I fokus står James Herriot själv, hans vän och kollega Siegfried Farnon och Siegfrieds yngre bror Tristan. Rollerna spelades av Christopher Timothy (James), Robert Hardy (Siegfried) och Peter Davison (Tristan). James fru, Helen Alderson, spelades säsongerna 1-3 av Carol Drinkwater. Hushållerskan Mrs Edna Hall spelades av Mary Hignett, som avled efter inspelningen av den tredje säsongen 1980. TV-serien lyckades tack vare skådespelarnas färgstarka karaktärer tydligt visa både landsorts-veterinärernas hårda slit och vardagens glädjefyllda och humoristiska inslag. Serien visades i brittisk TV 1978–1990. I Sverige började den första säsongen att sändas på TV 2 24 april 1979. År 2020 producerades en nyinspelning som sändes i SVT 2020. (sv)
