Season 4 sees Nicholas Ralph reprise his role as young country vet James Herriot, now married to Helen, played by Rachel Shenton (White Gold). Samuel West (Slow Horses) returns as James’ mentor Siegfried Farnon while Anna Madeley (Time) continues as Mrs. Hall, matriarch of Skeldale House. Patricia Hodge (A Very English Scandal) also reprises her role as the eccentric Mrs. Pumphrey, and Derek as her pampered Pekingese Tricki.
All Creatures is currently filming in Yorkshire.
Neve McIntosh (Shetland) joins the cast as the highly efficient bookkeeper Miss Harbottle, alongside James Anthony-Rose (Slow Horses) as the studious undergraduate vet student Richard Carmody.

Ah, now here’s some welcome news! Torchwood scribe, Catherine Tregenna will, according to her online CV, be writing for Series 9 of Doctor Who! Tregenna will be the first female writer since Helen Raynor, who wrote the slightly-wonky Daleks in Manhattan/ Evolution of the Daleks (2007), and the far-more-enjoyable The Sontaran Stratagem/ The Poison Sky (2008).

Torchwood's Catherine Tregenna is writing a series 9 episode of Doctor Who...
According to Executive Producer Brian Minchin, the roster of writers for Doctor Who series 9 is already fixed, not that their names - Steven Moffat's aside - are being revealed quite yet.
An early leak discovered via an online CV and reported by Doctor Who TV though, has revealed that screenwriter Catherine Tregenna (Torchwood, Casualty, Inspector Lewis) is one of the names on said list.
Tregenna, whose Torchwood episodes include the terrific Out Of Time, Captain Jack Harkness, Meat and Adam, numbered amongst our list of writers we'd most like to see a Who episode from back in 2013, so halloo hallay for that.
As is being widely reported, Tregenna will also be Doctor Who's most recent woman writer since Helen Raynor gave us The Sontaran Strategy and The Poison Sky all the way back in 2008.

Since its revival nine years ago, Doctor Who has accumulated a great many things in high numbers. Ratings figures, action figure sales, it has even dominated a host of award ceremonies. Eight seasons (with several specials in between) and counting however, the unfamiliar name of Helen Raynor still stands alone as the show’s one and only female writer. As the writer of Daleks In Manhatten/Evolution Of The Daleks, and The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky, she is also the only woman to have written either a Dalek, or a Sontaran story for the show, regardless of era. While on one hand that could be considered impressive gloating rights, surely it’s about time such statistics were no longer needed.
Prior to Peter Capaldi’s appointment there were many voices calling for an actress rather than actor to fill the shoes of the universe’s favourite Time Lord.

The Selfridge children are all grown up in the third series of Mr Selfridge, which picks up in 1919 just after the end of World War I.
In the new series which is about to start filming in London, the role of Harry’s eldest daughter, Rosalie, (played by Poppy Lee Friar in Series 1 and 2) is taken over by Kara Tointon. Kara (represented by Curtis Brown) played Dawn Swann in Eastenders for four years and won Strictly Come Dancing in 2010.
Kara’s real-life sister, Hannah Tointon, plays her rebellious sister, Violette in a move that sees the sisters acting together for the first time. 26 year old Hannah (represented by Independent Talent) played Katy Fox in Hollyoaks and more recently starred in Switch on ITV2 and BBC's The Hour.

Oh, adorable Mathilda Gregory at the Guardian doesn’t understand that women simply don’t like science fiction and don’t read it and have no interest in writing it. Obviously. Because science fiction is a boy thing. Why Doctor Who needs more female writers [S]eason seven of Doctor Who will feature no female scribes at all. Not in the bombastic dinosaurs and cowboys episodes that aired last year, and not in any of the new episodes we're about to receive. In fact, Doctor Who hasn't aired an episode written by a woman since 2008, 60 episodes ago. There hasn't been a single female-penned episode in the Moffat era, and in all the time since the show was rebooted in 2005 only one, Helen Raynor, has ever written for the show. ... When questioned on the subject last year, Caroline Skinner, the show's recently departed executive producer, said that it was her intention to...

Doctor Who would not exist as we know it without a woman. Her name was Verity Lambert and in her role as the first producer of the show she was instrumental in developing the character of the Doctor and introducing us to the Daleks. You would think that with such a strong female presence associated with Doctor Who from its very beginning that more women would be present as creative forces driving the show forward. You would be wrong.
Some might argue that the classic series was simply a different era, that women were not accepted in leadership roles. Verity Lambert aside, that is true though hardly an excuse. Even within the new series, however, Doctor Who’s track record with women writers is dismal. There has been exactly one woman writer in the entirety of the new series run – Helen Raynor.

Attention Shortarses everywhere. You have nothing to fear. Apparently the average height for a bloke in the UK is around 5'9”, although for some odd reason everyone seems to be taller than that even. And yet – despite the fact that media she-hacks still suggest that height is one of the most important prerequisites of a man – shortarses still seem to be doing spectacularly well. Pompous U2 oaf, Bono. Snarling tycoon monster Baron Von Sugar. Simon Cowell henchmen Ant And Dec – even Cowell himself doesn't seem to be the tallest guy on the planet.
So since this particular writer stands as tall as he can at 5'8”, this is pleasing news. Actually I've never had a problem with height – or relative lack of it. Unlike the poor old Sontarans, a race who always seem to have some massive inferiority complex. Look at them strutting around, looking like baked potatoes with eyes...

Somewhere, sometime, in a parallel universe, faded pop stars are attempting some sort of comeback in Doctor Who. In Fear Herman's Hermits, the roaring Honey Monster in Chloe's closet turns out to be an amalgamation of the twee 1960s crooners who are looking for a fresh supply of helium canisters. In Courtney Love And Monsters, the grungy one-time squeeze of Kurt Cobain joins forces with Linda to banish the Abzorbaloff to the mists of time. While a shocking revelation takes place during Daleks In Manhattan Transfer, as the evil pepperpots break out from the chirruping close-harmony quartet – a prospect nearly as terrifying as listening to 'Chanson D'Amour'.
There's a daft re-imagining of the first 2007 two-parter if ever there was one, but then the real Daleks In Manhattan/Evolution Of The Daleks isn't your average Who tale. It's an odd story of extremes, both in content and reception. The idea of...
