A New Adaptation of 'All Creatures Great and Small' is Coming to PBS
The classic British drama All Creatures Great and Small is getting a makeover for the modern era.
The series, which originally ran from 1978 to 1980, and again from 1988 to 1990, is being rebooted by PBS’ Masterpiece and U.K. network Channel 5. The new version will be comprised of six episodes and a Christmas special, and will be produced by the same company responsible for award-winning series Wolf Hall and Howards End.
Based on a beloved series of novels by James Alfred Wright, and published under the pen name James Herriot, All Creatures Great and Small follows the heartwarming and humorous story of a rural country veterinarian, and the cast of farmers and townsfolk who lived alongside him in their Yorkshire village.
