  • Quotes
    [on All Creatures Great and Small (1978)] It was a life-changing opportunity for me and I met some wonderful people. The funny thing is that when I watch it now I remember some episodes so clearly and fondly. But I've watched some of the early episodes and don't remember anything about them at all.
