Summary:
Set in the rugged beauty of the dales of Yorkshire, England, this season continues the true-life story of young veterinarian James Herriot. Newly married to Helen and settled into a partnership with Siegfried Farnon--with the sporadic support of Siegfried's errant younger brother, Tristan--James finds that there is no end to the joy and heartache, tears and laughter that go with caring for all creatures great and small.
