The Channel 5 drama, set in the Yorkshire Dales is returning for a one-off episode, titled All God's Creatures. But as the group gathers around the dinner table, Mrs Hall (Anna Madeley) receives “worrying news” – what do you think is going to happen? Let’s take a look at what else fans can expect from the All Creatures Great and Small Christmas special, including when it’s on TV and the full cast list. The Channel 5 synopsis reveals: “Skeldale House prepares for Christmas - and Jimmy’s first birthday – without the usual festive treats available.
Mrs Hall has figured out how to deliver the ideal Christmas, but when her world is rocked by a worrying news bulletin, the Skeldale family do their best to support her. A young boy arrives at the surgery with an abandoned fox cub and Mrs Hall can’t help feeling a connection with the animal. “Meanwhile, Tristan is given an important Royal Army Veterinary Corps (RAVC) mission involving pigeons.
Tristan is underwhelmed by the task and Siegfried sends him to Enoch Sykes, a cantankerous pigeon fancier. Tristan’s attempt to win over Enoch’s trust doesn’t go to plan.” It adds: “Helen and James prepare for Jimmy's birthday tea at Heston Grange, but Helen has to deal with some family disagreements.
“When the fox needs veterinary help, Siegfried faces a difficult decision as to how best to care for the animal, whilst also looking after Mrs Hall.” (function (d, s, n) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];.
