The 23rd series of The Yorkshire Vet concludes tonight (Thursday, November 12) on Channel 5, with its popular spin-off, The Yorkshire Vet: At Home with the Greens, set to take over the schedule next week.
The documentary programme, which has aired every Thursday at 8pm, has followed Peter Wright and Julian Norton as they care for animals across North Yorkshire. The final episode of the current series airs tonight.
Spin-off Returns for Third Season
At Home with the Greens begins its third season next Thursday (November 19) at 8pm on Channel 5. The series follows Steve and Jean Green, described as two of Britain's oldest working farmers, at their Stoneybrough Farm in Thirsk, North Yorkshire. Peter Wright and fellow Yorkshire farming friends make regular visits to the couple.
The show's return was announced on The Yorkshire Vet's Facebook and Instagram pages last week. The post read: "Thanks for watching last night everyone. We've just one more episode to bring you of the current series, next Thursday. But here's some exciting news to make this a very happy Friday!"
New Episodes and Fan Reaction
The announcement continued: "For everyone whose been wanting to see more of Jean and Steve Green... well this summer we filmed series three of At Home With The Greens. And it starts the week after the regular series ends - so that's 8pm on C5 on Thursday 19th November. Much more information to come about a whole load of exciting new adventures with Peter and other farming friends - from Steve and Jean scarecrows to Steampunk! And we'll see you at the same time next Thursday for the final episode of The Yorkshire Vet series. Have a great weekend."
Fans responded enthusiastically in the comments. One person wrote: "Absolutely wonderful programme, it's lovely to hear that we will see a little more of Mr and Mrs Green soon." Another added: "Can't wait to see them."
First Episode Synopsis
The synopsis for the first episode of the new series reads: "Despite having a combined age of over 170, Jean and Steve Green have no intention of slowing down, and work on the farm continues as ever. But the warning signs are there when Jean has to go to hospital for a gallbladder operation."
It continues: "As Steve struggles on alone, old friend Peter Wright steps in to lend a hand with the farm before turning his attention to another poorly patient - the Greens' beloved 13-year-old greyhound cross, Reuben, who needs serious dental treatment. Peter also rekindles Steve's love of writing and poetry at a special event in Thirsk, inspiring him to pen a love poem for Jean."
The Yorkshire Vet: At Home with the Greens returns on Thursday, November 19 at 8pm on Channel 5.
