New "All Creatures Great and Small" TV Series!

      Remember the series of books that, in America, started with "All Creatures Great and Small"?  Remember the 1970's TV series of the same name?  Well they're back!  PBS is showing Season 1 of "All Creatures Great and Small" 2021! January 10, 2021 will be the first episode's air date.  It is based on the much-beloved, never-out-of-print books. Season 1 has seven episodes.  There will be no bingeing, though, as we tune in each week at 9 p.m. One thing I find satisfying is that Siegfried is, in fact, tall!  The books describe him as tall and lanky- one thing that Robert Hardy was not in the first TV series, though he played him to perfection.  It will be interesting to see how closely they follow the books- what will they put in and what will they keep out?  How will this compare to the 1970's version of the show?

Only seven weeks to go!  Follow the links below for more on the show, including a video preview and who plays whom.
