Britain’s most famous vet returns to the small screen in December as the BBC get set to air the three part drama Young James Herriot.
In the series, Iain de Caestecker (The Fades) takes on the role of
Herriot as he attempts to complete his degree at veterinary college in
1930s Glasgow. The would-be vet has to contend with the realities of
life in Scotland during the depression era as well as the trials and
tribulations that veterinary students of any era must face.
Young James Herriot is a three part BBC drama that aired on BBC One from
18 to 20 December 2011. The plot is based on the early life and studies
of veterinary surgeon James Herriot, known for his autobographical
books which were the basis for the BBC show All Creatures Great and
Small. The idea for the programme came from Herriot's adventures as a
veterinary student. While the plot centres around Herriot, other topics
come up like the subjugation of women, the treatment of students by
Professor Gunnell - one of the professors at the college, and the rise
of the fascist movement in the UK.
