All Creatures Great and Small actors Rachel Shenton and Nicholas Ralph have shared behind-the-scenes insight into the making of the fourth series of All Creatures Great and Small, as the second episode airs tonight at 9pm on Channel 5.
Called Carpe Diem, the episode introduces Miss Harbottle , the experienced bookkeeper that Siegfried has the bright idea of bringing in to help balance the books more efficiently. “That episode is a lot of fun,” said Nicholas, who plays James Herriot. “We open with a couple of goats tearing through Skeldale House, and then Miss Harbottle comes in as well.” “They are brilliant. Very well trained. They do exactly what they need to do, and they’ve got quite a lot to do, so they are lovely.
They use a buzzer and some food, and they started about a metre away and slowly got further and further ... to the point where they were really quite far away and then they did it on set, around this elaborate set with us positioned in certain areas, with a buzzer, and the goats would do this long tour to get to the food at the end. They did a sterling job, and it was a long day for them.
