This is a lovely article by Carol Drinkwater who played the first Helen Herriot in the All Creatures tv series.
My Yorkshire Herriotage: Back to the Dales in search of the scenery that made a TV hit
She takes you on a trip back to all the places she remembers while filming the show. If you're a fan of All Creatures you'll enjoy the ride.
All Creatures is my all-time favorite series. I never get tired of watching it. It's on Netflix, btw.
Carol is a good writer and you can read more of her articles here.

I loved that series so much! It might be time to watch it again soon. The first Helen is my favorite... the later Helen just was not the same.
I liked them both. I think Carol did a great job as James's "love interest" and later, wife; and by the time Lynda Bellingham came along the Herriots had been married many years and Lynda was, to me, the perfect replacement - very wifely and motherly and most likely more like the real Helen. I think she did a great job. But I love them both in different ways.
