All Creatures Great and Small star shares thoughts on Siegfried and Mrs Hall - and fans will be upset

All Creatures Great and Small series six returns to Channel 5 shortly and unfolds in May 1945, as victory in Europe is announced.

Siegfried Farnon (portrayed by Samuel West) is proving particularly difficult for James Herriot (Nicholas Ralph).

Meanwhile, Mrs Hall (Anna Madeley) is striving to reunite everyone and bring peace back to the practice.

Mrs Hall and Siegfried have become a major talking point among viewers who are eager to witness them develop a romantic connection.

Tristan Farnon star Callum Woodhouse spoke exclusively to Reach publications about the excitement surrounding the pair. Siegfried has been exploring possibilities regarding fresh relationships, and when questioned about where Siegfried stands with his romantic life, Woodhouse commented: "I don't know if he knows where he is with it, let alone any of us.

"I think he's just gone a bit stir crazy in the house as he's been on his own, Tristan has been stationed abroad, James is spending more time at Heston Grange.

"I think he just got a bit bored of companionship with his rats and wanted something a little bit more."

Siegfried's romantic pursuits are expected to persist in series six and Woodhouse revealed he "worries" for any prospective partner for Siegfried.

"Because everyone is just desperate for Siegfried and Mrs Hall to be together," he elaborated.

"I don't know how I feel about it, she already feels a bit like my mum anyway and I think as well I'm thinking about Sam and Anna, so I'm like 'no!'" During the last series, viewers went wild as the romantic tension between the pair intensified.

One thrilled fan took to X, formerly Twitter, writing: "You see what I see right? We are seeing the slow burning of the century finally burning".

Another gushed: "Audrey and Siegfried are so married it's insane".

All Creatures Great and Small season 6 airs on Channel 5 on September 25 at 9pm
