The Yorkshire Vet: The Yorkshire Vet at Christmas

The veterinary documentary series concludes with a festive trip to Skeldale. Elderly farmer Jean, one of the show's most colourful characters, makes a Christmas cake with ingredients that have been `maturing" for seven years, and vet Peter Wright fears the worst when he is called to tend to a cow that has collapsed. Back at the surgery, Julian Norton has to make a difficult decision regarding Barney, a spaniel with a huge, fast-growing tumour on his leg. The residents of Thirsk plan to mark James Herriot's centenary by inviting his successors to turn on the town's Christmas lights, but Julian and Peter face a more daunting challenge when they are asked to help find a donkey for the town square nativity scene
