Is Gaia Wise in ‘All Creatures Great and Small’ Season 7?
Spoiler Alert
[Warning: The following contains MAJOR spoilers for All Creatures Great and Small Season 6 Episode 3.]
Did Tristan Farnon (Callum Woodhouse) just meet his wife? Gaia Wise made her debut in All Creatures Great and Small on Sunday, January 25, on PBS, and it was a romantic episode for Tristan and Charlotte Beauvoir. With All Creatures Great and Small renewed for Seasons 7 and 8, and with Charlotte looking like a serious romantic prospect for Tristan, will this new character appear in the next season?
All Creatures Great and Small Season 6 Episode 3 showed the Farnon brothers fighting over who got to care for the Beauvoir family’s favorite horse at their new estate. Tristan thought Siegfried had taken a shine to Charlotte after they met the young heiress as he did, but the elder brother wanted to make sure Skeldale snagged the Beauvoir’s business, which came with a large stable of horses. Tristan and Charlotte were more compatible than they could have anticipated.
Tristan has been struggling to share what he experienced during his service in the war. Case in point: he received a medal for his actions that was concealed from everyone until Mrs. Hall (Anna Madeley) accidentally came upon it while doing laundry. He doesn’t have the words to describe the difficult experience, but Charlotte served in the war herself, and that’s where she came across her beloved horse. They instantly understood each other, which helped them bond.
By the end of the episode, Charlotte kissed Tristan, and he went home feeling hopeful. Photos and videos from future episodes, shared by the All Creatures Great and Small Instagram, hint that Charlotte becomes an important person in Tristan’s life this season. (All Creatures airs in the U.K. months before it airs in the U.S., so that account has some spoilers for PBS viewers.)
While a cast list for Season 7 hasn’t been shared, the series loved having Wise on set for Season 6. (Wise is the daughter of actors Emma Thompson and Greg Wise, if she looked at all familiar.)
“Gaia was fabulous,” executive producer Melissa Gallant told TV Insider before the Season 6 premiere. “Everybody wanted to write more scenes and episodes for her.”
Wise will also be in every episode for the rest of the season, including the Christmas special. Given all oft this, and the apparently serious relationship that forms between Tristan and Charlotte, we’d wager that Wise will be in Season 7.

Tris has mentioned that he's home "on leave," and yet he's been around for a number of weeks, and has mentioned no actual date of return to the Army. I'm also a bit confused as to whether the war is actually (officially) over or not. A few weeks ago there was a big celebration about the war being over, but then in the next episode a character said "the war isn't over yet." Also, I've never known an army that put soldiers on a months-long leave, or indefinite leave... especially if the war isn't officially over.

The war in Asia is still going on.

Ooh, yikes, you're right, I had forgotten that. I think Tristan did mention the possibility of looking after (Asian?) elephants. Thanks for the reminder.

Why has Helen been only in a couple scenes and sitting and only few lines in both episodes?

Rachel Shenton was pregnant IRL during filming!

I was a bit surprised that Helen and the kids were apparently living at the farm, but I guess Skeldale House is a little too small for five adults and two kids. 🤓
I do feel bad for Helen's father, though... at one time I think the younger daughter wanted to take over the farm, but now I think she said she's going to become a nurse. So who will take over the farm when her Da passes away??
