Season 3 of All Creatures Great & Small has its Free to Air premiere on ABC next week.

There are 6 episodes which previously screened on BritBox in October 2022.

All Creatures Great and Small series three begins in spring 1939 as James and Helen prepare to walk down the aisle. With a new stake in the business, James is trying to expand the veterinary practice by joining a governmen tprogram to test for tuberculosis in cattle. The initiative pays well, but it is looked upon with suspicion by the local farmers who run the risk of their farms being shut down if a positive case is found.

Nicholas Ralph is back as young vet James Herriot, and Samuel West as his mercurial mentor Siegfried Farnon. Anna Madeley returns as the matriarch of Skeldale House, Mrs Hall, whilst Callum Woodhouse is Siegfried’s slowly maturing brother Tristan. Rachel Shenton returns as local farmer Helen Alderson. A characterful ensemble of farmers, animals and townsfolk living in the Yorkshire Dales in the 1930s also return.

Saturday November 25 7:30pm on ABC.

    1. That is often the case…Foxtel get Call the Midwife and Death in Paradise often fast tracked from the UK in the first few months of the new year…and the ABC is often one series behind…similar with Silent Witness and Shetland which I’m watching S8 now…they are all on BBC First…I’m happy with both channels screening the shows because they are enjoyable and often warrant a second look…I’m in agreement with Evan43 and Neil comments…also the beauty of the My Foxtel app is the shows are a up to a fortnight ahead for programming unlike other tv guide apps and I can make sure I don’t miss a show that David hasn’t highlighted..

  3. They have just about finished repeating S2 and there is a repeat of the S2 Christmas Special on Saturday. They have are also dumping Shakespeare and Hathaway one episode before the end. So this seemed likely that 7:30pm Saturday would be it’s slot.

  4. I love this series – so warm hearted, funny, and charming, terrific actors, great writing, the scenery is lovely. Very faithful to the original series of the 1980s.
