Christopher Timothy just spoke during an interview, by Graham Norton on BBC Radio Two (Saturday 18th June 2016, 10am), of Pebble Mill saying what a fantastic place it was. A great hub full of so much activity and talent. 32 years of my life spent there. Thirteen years of All Creatures Great & Small of which Ivor [Annie’s husband] edited some. Loved seeing Christopher there. My Dad spoke to him once in the lift, Christopher was in a wheelchair as he had broken his leg! Chatted to him like an old friend. Made my Dad’s day.

The following comment was left on the Pebble Mill Facebook page:
Betti Moretti: ‘Loved working at Pebble Mill with Chris on Doctors – I’d been such a fan of All Creatures when I was a child it was like a dream come true. I was Production Secretary, but also played the wife to Mark Frost’s Dr Steve Rawlings – until I was killed off! Happy memories of that time – especially down at the club.’

The black and white group shot dates from the 1989 series of ‘All Creatures Great and Small’. The other photos were taken by Janice Rider in her role as costume designer, as records of what the actors were wearing in particular scenes, for continuity reasons, so that interiors recorded in Studio A at Pebble Mill, would match with exteriors recorded in Askrigg, North Yorkshire.
‘All Creatures Great and Small’ was hosted at Pebble Mill.
The photos include Lynda Bellingham, Peter Davison, Robert Hardy, Christopher Timothy, John McGlynn (young actor in group shot), Andrea Gibb (played Deirdre) amongst others.
