45:28 Charlie Brown Christmas tree lol charming! Awwww donkey in the manger!!

Zu schade, dass du den Rest nicht hochgeladen hast. Diese Version ist eine DER Besten! <3

Best television ever.

LOVED THIS SHOW ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ❤❤❤❤❤

great stuff.

Everything about this show was great. The cast work so well together. Robert Hardy was great. The original time slot on Sunday evening was perfect. My Mum loved the show so along with Songs of Praise I was "forced" to watch. The new version has grown on me. It's not the original but it shouldn't be. It has it's own charm and the cast of characters has made it a good show.

Put them in order for chrissakes

Mrs. Pumphrey here is done so much better than in the new series. The problem is that BBC writers seem to have forgotten how to write truly eccentric characters, and eccentric characters were so often what Herriot's stories were about. It's all so toned-down these days, even Siegfried.

Oh my goodness I had no idea that there were programs recreating the beloved James Herrior books that I have worn out reading time and time again from my paperback library. Now I need to buy hardback volumes. I am so excited to have found these on PBS and to know that y ou have recorded them for us to watch.

In my opinion, the nicest show ever sent out from a tv transmitter in So. Calif.!!!

I watch this every Christmas! Thanks for the upload! 🎉❤😊

Oh my goodness, I have always loved this series and this episode is one of the best. Great television drama and a true portrayal of Vets dedicated to their patients and owners rather than to making loads of money. Both are from a past age in Britain.

Thank you. Still the best adaptation ❤

Seemed appropriate to watch this fine episode tonight ... Christmas Eve!

Love it! Love every corny joke ... every cliche ..takes me back to when life at least appeared to be more simple and kind (l'm nearly 80) Thank you so much for a happy hour of escapism 🙏

@31:17 Anyone know the name of that Christmas song they are singing ?

I just love all creatures great and small❤

These were the best ❤

Thank you for uploading this. ❤️❤️❤️

This is one of my favorite episodes.

13:37 i search "Little Monte, All Creatures Great and Small" and this is where I'm led. bad sheperding Alphabet boys. also Jeezy should be more specific. I think he wanted us to think of Men with guns but I cant help thinking boys in the web.

Wonderful gem of a series I have all the books make me chuckle so much ❤

What a wonderful British traditional drama A national treasure. Not of my era before and post war. I have wonderful memories of watching it in the 1980s with my late grandfather being from a farming background he loved and could relate to it because he came from that era. Brilliant cast attention to detail veterinary procedures hands on, rural social life of the time, witty and sometimes sad. Watch it over and over again.

From when I found the James Herriot books in my school library 52 years ago, I've been a fan. These shows have always been so relaxing and enjoyable. I much prefer this series over the newly made Master Theater series.

I love watching these English shows. Look, I know (whether people relate a bit to the characters or real people) we all have imperfections, but if we didn't we would be God. But this is the key to our imperfections and that is humility. There are no great special effects or makeup (like aliens) just men and women acting a good wholesome show. I feel bad what is happening to the English now. BTW, being tough with those that aim to destroy and/or infiltrate isn't wrong. Sometimes it is the best for both (many) parties involved. God Bless brothers and sisters!!✝️✝️✝️

Wish there were more in this excellent condition.

the farmer is so kind. we were like that today

Great episode, exellent series.

Siegfried Farnon...The Earl of Leicester...Cornelius Fudge...was there any role Robert Hardy could not play? Thank you, good Sir, for all the splendid enjoyment.

1989! Thanks

Watched these as a teen living in Yorkshire. Went to Canada for 35 yrs. now back in Yorkshire and watching them again 👍🏻 The 70s England was so much better than the disaster Britain today. It’s a broken nation now. So diverse it’s unrecognisable as England

Such good and lovely episodes.

"Pride's a fine thing, in its proper place. Put it in your pocket, just this once." This show has some of the greatest quotes ever aired on TV (or streamed on the internet for that matter). This is one of my most favorite episodes!

What year did this happen?

I always hesitate to take time out of my busy life to watch a full episode, but every time I do, at the end I cry out: "What a truly remarkable show!"

Forgot what an amazing show this was. And the theme tune blows the modern version away

Peter Davidson is such a joy in all these.

It is not Christmas until my family sees this particular episode. What a wonderful show.

Thank you very much, this is greatly appreciated.

Absolutely this is without a doubt my very Favorite episode

This has recently been shown on television and on the adverts there was one for an all-singing, all-dancing pre-lit Christmas tree that you just wheel out of storage. This was juxtaposed with the decorating of the tree at Skeldale. One all, and to use an ugly in-vogue vernacular, 'bling' and the other a simply lit tree in Skeldale. I wonder which is more important and memorable.

Oh my, do you catch him using the term niggardly? Times have changed and so have meanings or connotations of language. Different times.

I had a wonderful time climbing over fence gates running from farm to farm Carol singing at a farm front door often us boys would get a fruit mince pie piping hot and straight out of the old coal range ( wonderful memories)

I just love it. Thank you.

Love this show!

I can't thank you enough for posting this! I can not afford to buy the DVD's and this is so wonderful that I may watch this wherever I may be on my phone. Thank you for your kind thoughtfulness ❤️. Brook 🙋🍏🍎

When it comes to TV programs, times have changed, but not for the better.

Been watching for decades. Years ago, even got the idea of moving to the Yorkshire Dales but took a few days in Vermont instead. College and a mortgage changed my plans. Took a free membership a few months ago to a network just because they had the complete series on. I was always interested in all the little extra things Robert Hardy did, as in this episode after pouring Helen's sherry and James asks for a whiskey, instead of simply pouring it he turns around to look at James without saying anything before pouring it. Granville Bennett also a favorite. Every time we had a really sick pet I wondered if he could have done something more than our local vets. Interesting to me as just like on The Waltons which had the real John Boy Earl Hamner on the set as technical advisor, they seem to break a lot of our rules today, yet the real-life counterparts lived mostly long. I can't remember ever seeing a salad on the table of either show, sugar used liberally in both, cakes, biscuits, alcohol in this one, salt, no regular exercise, rare a piece of fruit was eaten, not too many vegetables, good amount of bread, etc., but plenty of bacon, sausages, meat in general. Seems they seemed to enjoy life more without all these modern rules, sitting in the kitchen eating freshly baked pastries, tea with sugar, fireplace often on, a few scenes with candy eaten or given to kids, and so on. Ended up buying a house now 105 years old, and lately got the idea of changing the color scheme to match Skeldale House, as too much white in ours, not as warm as the browns they have. Yes, a classic is forever.
