A wonderfully entertaining series for all James Herriot fans. It’s lovely to be able to watch them all again so many years after watching the series when it was aired on the BBC in the 1970’s. The only thing that puzzles me slightly is why there are so many DVD’s- why was it not possible to put more than two episodes on each disc? Never mind, this only slightly detracts from my enjoyment.

We grew up with this programme & always loved it so it is an absolute pleasure to have the entire box set & to follow the whole journey from start to finish. The only small grumble is that occasionally we seem to lose sound for a few seconds-our dvd player works perfectly so I can only assume that tis must be due to using old material & transferring this onto disc? If you are an animal lover, have aspirations to be a vet or even just love the scenery & a reversion to how farming "used to be done" & appreciate gentle humour, then you too will enjoy this long running series as we are.
Thoroughly refreshing to watch these , as We didn't have time to fully absorb first time round 40 yrs ago on TV ! ...Such class acting with wonderful characters in beautiful settings & lovely storylines....humorous , some sad & thought provoking....also an excellent take on social history in gentler times , though not without its hardships. The picture quality is much better than the TV versions. The whole box set got us through our 4 weeks of Flu & it was rather sad when We reached the last episode !....if only modern TV WAS AS GOOD AS THIS !!

All Creatures Great and Small was a British television series based on the books of a Yorkshire veterinary surgeon who wrote under the pseudonym of James Herriot. 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) for four. A total of ninety episodes were broadcast. This super box set contains the entire series and it has been a great joy to visit them again. It will take me some time to work my way through all of them! It is the kind of programme that can genuinely be called family entertainment.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Beautiful setting and entertaining characters. They really get to grips with the animals. The stories are lovely, showing people being friendly and helpful. And they are quite fast, with quick changes between scenes. The dialogue is realistic and the characters behave with each other just as friends and colleagues would. Teasing and joking and also serious chats. Plenty of humour too in some of the scenarios.
