In the clip, viewers are invited to imagine an alternative Darrowby, as Nicholas Ralph delivers lines as Tristan Farnon, while Callum Woodhouse takes on the role of James Herriot, completely flipping the script on the familiar period drama.
The playful video sees the actors reading out iconic lines normally spoken by their co-stars, giving them “a taste of life on the other side of the scene” and offering fans a glimpse of the strong camaraderie that exists off-screen.
MASTERPIECE | PBS shared the clip with the caption: “Nicholas Ralph as Tristan? Callum Woodhouse as James? The script’s been flipped! Join the All Creatures Great and Small actors as they swap roles and get a taste of life on the other side of the scene.”
Fans were quick to respond, with many praising the cast’s sense of humour and chemistry, and joking about how “convincing” and “mischievous”.
The video is the latest in a series of promotional clips released following the end of Series 6 in the UK, which concluded with a Christmas Eve episode set in 1945 as the Second World War came to an end.
While the show is known for its storytelling and emotional depth, moments like this have delighted viewers by revealing the fun and warmth shared by the cast behind the scenes.
All Creatures Great and Small, filmed across the Yorkshire Dales including Grassington, Broughton Hall and Oakworth Station, continues to enjoy huge popularity both at home and overseas.
With Series 7 and 8 already confirmed in the UK, fans on both sides of the Atlantic are eagerly awaiting a return to Darrowby.
