It’s about some veterinarians in the 30’s. It’s slow, doesn’t have any sex, violence, or profanity. It’s wholesome. It’s filmed in the absolutely gorgeous Yorkshire Dales. We love it and have already watched 2.5 seasons in 3 nights.

    Based on the James Herriot books written by Alf Wight, a real vet. I’ve not seen the newer version, but the original series has the late great Robert Hardy and had some lovely Yorkshire dialect. I grew up near the area and some of the characterisations of people were very recognisable when I was a kid.

      I remember reading those books as a kid. They were pretty interesting if I remember correctly.
