One of the nation’s most beloved comfort TV shows is back, the rebooted All Creatures Great & Small returns just in time for Christmas with its highly anticipated sixth series, ready to melt hearts once again. Journey back to the stunning Yorkshire Dales for more veterinary adventures, family warmth, and the gentle humour that has made Darrowby’s residents household favourites.
Acorn Media International is delighted to announce that All Creatures Great & Small – Series 6 and the Series 1–6 Box Set will arrive on DVD and digital from December 1, 2025, following its ongoing run on Channel 5. The festive Christmas Special, “All God’s Creatures,” is also included — a perfect seasonal treat filled with hope, kindness, and a touch of Yorkshire magic.
Hailed by The Guardian as “the comforting TV we all need” and Daily Mail as “the most charming drama on TV,” the series has firmly cemented its place as one of Britain’s most cherished shows. Based on the best-selling books by real-life vet and author James Herriot (aka James Alfred Wight OBE), All Creatures Great & Small continues to delight audiences across the world with its timeless mix of warmth, wit, and wonder.
Set at the tail end of the Second World War, the new series finds Skeldale House in transition. With peace finally declared, the promise of a new beginning hangs in the air — though not without its challenges. James Herriot (Nicholas Ralph – The Most Reluctant Convert) must juggle his veterinary duties with his growing family life alongside Helen(Rachel Shenton – Hollyoaks, White Gold), while Siegfried Farnon (Samuel West – Slow Horses, Darkest Hour) remains as brilliantly infuriating as ever.
Meanwhile, a more seasoned Tristan (Callum Woodhouse – The Durrells) returns home from the war, adjusting to civilian life once more, as Mrs Hall (Anna Madeley – Deadwater Fell, In Bruges) works tirelessly to restore order and unity to the household. Together, they must rediscover their rhythm, reconnect as a family, and find purpose in a world learning to heal.
With its breathtaking landscapes, pitch-perfect performances, and irresistible blend of heart and humour, All Creatures Great & Small – Series 6 is the ultimate winter warmer, and a celebration of compassion, community, and the enduring power of kindness.
