The show's premise is inspired by James Herriot's All Creatures Great and Small, a popular British TV series in which Timothy and Davison starred together in the 1970s. Herriot's stories of life as a rural veterinarian in Yorkshire have become a cultural touchstone in Britain, and this new show is an attempt to capture that same sense of nostalgia and romanticism.

The series consists of six hour-long episodes, each of which focuses on a different leg of the journey. In the first episode, Timothy and Davison start their adventure in a 1936 Morgan, driving through the winding roads and quaint villages of Yorkshire. Along the way, they meet locals, visit historic landmarks, and indulge in traditional British cuisine.

Throughout the series, viewers get a glimpse of British countryside and its many hidden treasures. From the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales to the rugged coastlines of the Lake District, Timothy and Davison encounter stunning landscapes and charming towns that have remained largely unchanged for decades.

The show also plays heavily on the nostalgia factor, as the vintage cars used by the hosts serve as a focal point for discussing the history and evolution of British road culture. The cars, which include a 1953 MG TD and a 1960 Austin-Healey Sprite, add an element of whimsy and nostalgia to the show.

Timothy and Davison are the perfect hosts for a series like this. They have great chemistry and their shared history on All Creatures Great and Small gives the show a comforting familiarity. Both men are also incredibly knowledgeable about British history and culture, and their enthusiasm is contagious.

Overall, Vintage Roads Great & Small is a charming and whimsical travel series that will appeal to anyone with a love for British nostalgia and vintage cars. Timothy and Davison are excellent hosts, and their ion for the subject matter is infectious. The stunning cinematography and breathtaking landscapes make this a must-watch for anyone looking for a bit of escapism.

Vintage Roads Great & Small is a series that ran for 2 seasons (7 episodes) between October 8, 2018 and on Acorn TV
