Anna Madeley as Mrs. Hall – Returning!
Anna Madeley will be returning for seasons five and six as matriarch of Skeldale House, Mrs. Hall!
Anna shared on what she’s noticed about the show, via PBS, “We’ve really noticed in lockdown just how kind people can be, how important your community is, and ultimately how much our quality of life is dependent on those things and I think you really see that in the community in All Creatures Great and Small.”

Samuel West as Siegfried Farnon – Returning!
Samuel West will be back on All Creatures Great and Small as his character Siegfried Farnon! His character is described by Masterpiece as the “mercurial mentor” of vet James Herriot!
He explained how he began getting comfortable around animals, telling PBS, “Andy Barrett, our vet advisor, introduced me to somebody who bred horses who said ‘this is how you check their teeth’ and he opened the horse’s mouth and grabbed his tongue which is pretty messy, and moved it out of the way to look at the teeth and asked me to hold on to the tongue. It takes absolute confidence and I thought, ‘okay I am not ready to do that yet but maybe for [season] two.’”
