All Creatures Great and Small star responds to “boring” criticism

As a gamer who has seen his fair share of love stories in various games and real life, I must say that the portrayal of Helen and James’ relationship in “All Creatures Great and Small” is nothing short of refreshing. The way their love stands the test of time, withstanding trials and tribulations, is a sight rarely seen in today’s world. It’s like playing a game where you have a character with unwavering loyalty and devotion, who always manages to find their way back to each other no matter what obstacles are thrown at them.


Actress Rachel Shenton, who plays a role in the show “All Creatures Great and Small,” has addressed comments labeling the relationship between her characters Helen and James as “dull.

Next week, I’ll be diving back into my favorite series on Channel 5, where the captivating storyline about the marriage of my in-game characters, hers and Nicholas Ralph’s, will unfold further. And let me tell you, with the introduction of little Jimmy, things are bound to get even more interesting!

In a recent chat with Radio Times, Shenton described the relationship between Helen and James as an exceptionally heartwarming love story. These two characters have an unwavering devotion to one another, always rooting for each other’s success.

“It’s something that we don’t see very often,” she added.

In the course of the story, characters stumble and make errors, but there’s an assurance that every participant will eventually take the correct action to restore harmony, isn’t it? It’s simply charming and invigorating to experience such a series.

She added, “I recall asking something similar earlier, ‘Isn’t it just a tad monotonous, the way they keep reuniting?’ However, I find the exact opposite to be true.

Shenton noted that such a portrayal is “wonderful and truthful” and “there’s colour and nuance within that”.

Though they face challenges, it’s clear they do so, and every time, they find their way back to agreement. This season is no exception.

Last week, we got our first glimpse at the upcoming season with a trailer revealing scenes set in the year 1941. It depicts a heartwarming emotional reunion between characters Helen and James, who meet again at RAF Abingdon after his previous return.

The television series titled “All Creatures Great and Small” draws inspiration from the books of the same name by James Herriot, focusing on a threesome of veterinarians who practice their craft in the Yorkshire Dales during the early 1900s.

Previously, I was thrilled to learn that my favorite series got picked up for seasons 5 and 6. Now, just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, Netflix dropped season 5 right into my lap!

All Creatures Great and Small will return on Channel 5 and My5 on Thursday, September 19 at 9pm.
