All Creatures Great and Small star promises James is in “much better place”

As a seasoned movie reviewer who has seen more than his fair share of heartwarming dramas, I must say that Season 5 of All Creatures Great and Small truly tugged at my heartstrings. The storyline of James Herriot’s struggles with guilt, illness, and loss resonated deeply with me, as it reminded me of a time when I contracted a rare tropical disease during a filming trip to the Amazon.

Season 5 of All Creatures Great and Small proved to be an especially challenging time for James.

After coming down with brucellosis, the vet was declared medically unable to serve in the military. Consequently, he was permitted to go back to his Skeldale House family, resuming his previous duties as before.

Despite enjoying the advantages, such as attending his son Jimmy’s first birthday in this year’s Christmas special, he felt burdened by guilt over leaving his team. This sense of guilt seemed to grow stronger, especially during a difficult period of illness.

As a devoted cinephile, I’ve found myself in an unexpected predicament. A physician had cautioned me about the possibility of my fever returning, and true to his words, it struck one seemingly ordinary day. This unwelcome guest left Mrs. Hall no choice but to postpone her surgery, while dear Helen tenderly cared for me in our bed.

In the grip of his madness, he started seeing apparitions of his old friends, who unfortunately perished in their plane when it was struck by enemy fire during a practice mission, causing a fatal accident.

When he encountered them once more, or if he truly thought it was so, James found himself overwhelmed with feeling and wept profusely, unable to stop, with Helen comforting him by embracing him tightly.

He tends to keep his feelings hidden and present a strong front, but the illness (brucellosis) surprisingly led to an outburst of emotions that Helen noticed. This allowed him to finally open up to her honestly about his struggles, and they worked through it by discussing their issues openly.

In my perspective as a movie-goer, this character has undeniably found solace and improvement from his past struggles. Yet, the ghosts of his past will never fully depart, lingering as a constant reminder. However, it serves as a poignant reminder of how precious life is, considering many young men are not as fortunate to have a second chance at living.

He’s deeply appreciative and excited to celebrate little Jimmy’s first birthday alongside the entire family and friends. It’s as if everything is fresh and new again for him.
