The Yorkshire Vet star made 'nerve-wracking' blunder during hidden Channel 5 drama cameo

Peter Wright, the beloved vet from The Yorkshire Vet, experienced a "nerve-wracking" moment during his cameo in a special episode of All Creatures Great and Small.

The well-known veterinarian joined forces with colleague Sarah Searson to delve into the behind-the-scenes action of the Channel 5 series. It was during James Herriot's poignant departure scene that Peter found himself involved, leaving viewers emotional as actor Nicholas Ralph said goodbye to the iconic village.

In a bid to blend in with the period drama, Peter dressed up and took on the role of an extra, which required more skill than anticipated. He shared: "I've got to multitask because I've got to walk and I've got to acknowledge people at the same time, and have my newspaper under my arm, so that's three things I've got to concentrate on."

Sarah chimed in with her observations, saying: "The director keeps shouting to him, 'Peter, come over here!' and 'Peter, go over there!'"

However, Peter's first attempt didn't go as planned when he accidentally dropped his newspaper, prompting the narrator to comment: "Across the square, Peter's hoping his natural ability as an extra is going to shine through on his second take, after dropping his newspaper first time around," reports the Mirror.

Reflecting on the mishap, the star of The Yorkshire Vet confessed: "It's nerve-wracking. You've got to do so many things at once. I don't know whether you noticed, but I dropped my newspaper at one point. I think it's every man to his job you know. I think I belong as a vet."

Despite the slip-up, Sarah was supportive, reassuring him: "I think you've done a fantastic job despite dropping your paper."

Fans of All Creatures were left emotional as James departed Darrowby in the
