Jim is
the son of Alf Wight (better known as James Herriot)
who has written a book about his famous dad which was launched at 23
Kirkgate
in Thirsk, the very building from which Alf’s father practised in the
1940s and
early 1950s, and which was made famous in the Herriot books and TV
series as
Skeldale House.
Jim
trained as a vet and by the late 1960 was fully
qualified and practising in Staffordshire, when his father asked him to
come
and work for him at his Thirsk practice.
