Query: less than inspiring

Grossly disappointed, not with the actors, but the writing which seemed disjointed and most likely less than truly accurate. While I viewed with an open mind to not compare against the characters of the "All Creatures..." series and books, it was difficult to envision the James Herriot portrayed in this series juxtaposed against the true character of the man. The sweetness of the original stories based on the life of James Herriot was completely lacking in favor of a weak attempt at dramatic scripting. Anyone want to buy our copy? Willing to sell at a greatly reduced price.
