• This series became such a left tilting soap box as to become distracting. No wonder it contained only three episodes.

    It seemed written to please and reinforce the ideas of liberals and extreme feminists, angry at the world. It became more propaganda than an effective portrayal of James Herriot's novels.

    The settings were pretty good as are most UK productions but, as has been said, the characters were two dimensional and seemed to be props for subtle socialist claptrap.

    As I watched it I was aware of someone trying to be politically manipulating.
