from the books by JAMES HERRIOT The last of 14 episodes starring and with Peter Davison and Carol Drinkwater Merry Gentlemen adapted by ANTHONY STEVEN
Tricki-Woo, overfed by Mrs Pum phrey again, feels ill and is nursed back to health by Helen - which provides the inevitable hamper-a welcome addition at any time, but especially at Christmas. But Christmas at Skeldale House, with carols, holly and mistletoe, can be a strange experience.
