All Creatures Great and Small (1990)
Saisons & Épisode
Buffoon Stewie Brannen, an old friend of Siegfried's, has invited the distinguished Professor Norton to a black tie dinner, and prevails upon Siegfried to host it at Skeldale -- and lend him a dinner suit. But disaster looms when Siegfried and Stewie are called out for a calving, in full evening dress, and James has to hold the fort with an irascible Mrs. Alton.
Siegfried is determined to discover who shot Korean War veteran Jacob Pearson's dog. The suspect is Captain Crawford's willful and surly 20-year-old son, Hugh -- a young man with problems beyond his pompous father's control. Both James and Siegfried have extraordinarily little success in extracting payment from wily farmer Dennis Pratt -- until they discover he may be sneaking his cows onto a neighboring farm to enjoy better grazing.
James and Tristan find themselves embroiled in an argument between David and Johnathan Bradley who are competing for the honour of ringing the Christmas bells. Meanwhile, times are hard when an outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease is announced. Tristan pursues the new school teacher, Miss Marston, and the purchase of a Daimler proves to be an expensive choice.
