Masterpiece

Masterpiece on PBS has announced premiere dates for the upcoming seasons of Miss Scarlet and The Duke and All Creatures Great and Small.

The two British dramas are set to return for their respective fourth seasons on January 7, 2024. Miss Scarlet and The Duke will kick off the night at 8/7c, immediately followed by All Creatures Great and Small at 9/8c.

In the upcoming season Miss Scarley and The Duke see Eliza (Kate Phillips) taking over the business of Nash & Sons (although he has no sons), and it’s not going over too well, although help does arrive from some familiar places. Outside of the business, her relationship with the titular Duke (William, played by Stuart Martin) develops toward a decision that will shape both of their lives forever.

Meanwhile, set in the Yorkshire Dales, All Creatures Great and Small season 4 picks up in 1940 as Winston Churchill takes office and Europe is seriously threatened.

James and Helen contemplate the optimal moment to begin a family, uncertain of whether James will receive a summons to join the RAF. Tristan’s presence is sorely missed by everyone, particularly Siegfried, who strives to unite the expanding household and navigate this unfamiliar era. The season will consist of seven new episodes and a Christmas special and will air on Masterpiece on PBS in early 2024.

Returning cast for Season 4 of All Creatures Great and Small includes Nicholas Ralph as James Herriot, who recently married Rachel Shenton‘s Helen Herriot. Samuel West (Siegfried Farnon), Anna Madeley (Mrs. Audrey Hall), and Patricia Hodge (Mrs. Pumphrey) are also returning for the new season, as is Derek as Mrs. Pumphrey’s beloved and pampered dog, Tricki. Callum Woodhouse (Tristan Farnon) will not be returning. After enlisting in the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, his character said an emotional goodbye to brother Siegfried in the Season 3 finale.

    I look forward to the return of BOTH shows!! Although I do think it would be better to have All Creatures first, and then Miss Scarlet. But considering that there is no objectionable material in either show, I guess it doesn't matter.

    Also, it's interesting that the writeup says James and Helen are trying to determine the "optimal" time to begin a family. In truth, back in those days, there really wasn't much deciding or contemplation about it-- couples shared the same bed and usually it wasn't too many weeks or months until the woman was "in the family way." Unless James knows something the rest of society didn't..... 😎😆

    Any chance Tristan could return for Season 5? Or maybe even in the middle of season 4? Hess very important part of the show!
