Anna Madeley as Mrs. Hall \u2013 Returning!<\/p>\n

Anna Madeley will be returning for seasons five and six as matriarch of Skeldale House, Mrs. Hall!<\/p>\n

Anna shared on what she\u2019s noticed about the show, via PBS, \u201cWe\u2019ve 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Samuel West as Siegfried Farnon \u2013 Returning!<\/p>\n

Samuel West will be back on All Creatures Great and Small as his character Siegfried Farnon! His character is described by Masterpiece as the \u201cmercurial mentor\u201d of vet James Herriot!<\/p>\n

He explained how he began getting comfortable around animals, telling PBS, \u201cAndy Barrett, our vet advisor, introduced me to somebody who bred horses who said \u2018this is how you check their teeth\u2019 and he opened the horse\u2019s 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, \u2018okay I am not ready to do that yet but maybe for [season] two.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
