ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL

THU, 9PM, CHANNEL 5 DRAMA

Caring Mrs Hall has enough on her plate keeping the vets of Skeldale House in check. But as the fifth series of Channel 5's hit period drama All Creatures Great and Small continues this week, she adds Air Raid Precautions warden to her list of duties, too!

As the selfless housekeeper, played by Anna Madeley, begins her new role, however, there are ructions as fussy chief ARP warden Mr Bosworth (Jeremy Swift) starts placing demands on her time, putting him at odds with Mrs Hall's grouchy employer, Siegfried Farnon (Samuel West).

Here, in an exclusive chat, Anna tells TV Times about the trouble ahead...

How does Mrs Hall feel about becoming an ARP warden?

Bosworth wants to ensure lights are turned off and curtains are closed [in the blackout] and Mrs Hall is looking forward to getting stuck into that. During World War One, she was in the Wrens [Women's Royal Naval Service], and she's perfect for this, because she knows the community.

Bosworth wasn't keen initially on recruiting her. What's your take on their dynamic?

He's not quite so smug now, though, is he? The money, it transpired, belonged to Harvey Gaskell, Damon's brother, and the incarcerated gangster wants it back. With interest. Harvey has already made threats to David, via his stooges on the outside, and this week he ups the ante and has Shona kidnapped.
