Boris the rabbit and a boy keeping chickens - the new stars of the Yorkshire Vet

Here are some of animals and clients that viewers can expect to see Julian Norton and Peter Wright treat this time around.

Jack Hogg

Eight-year-old Jack loves to keep chickens, preferring to do that than spend time on a Playstation.

Mr Norton diagnoses his Silkies with sinusitis, which has spread up to their eyes and got very gummy, causing them to be shut.

He gives them some antibiotics…then recommends a bizarre treatment to do at home.

Mr Norton said: "I suggested that he takes them in the bathroom to give them a sort of steam treatment. It's good for clogged-up mucus. Quite a lot of people have cats with this problem."

Lo and behold, young Jack takes the chickens into the shower in an attempt to clear up their illness.

Boris the rabbit

Norton's own new rabbit, Boris is featured in the latest series.

The vet's children came up with the name because he is “a bit droopy and looked a bit inert and inept”, while series producer Mike Sinclair said he was "floppy-haired and belligerent".

And it turns out Boris may need castration.

"All the little conversations about castrating Boris was around the Brexit thing," said the Boroughbridge-based vet.

Nessie

Nessie the Scottie dog has a tumour on her lung.

The tumour will certainly kill her if not removed, and the only way to do it is a very complicated thoracotomy, which means going in through the chest cavity.

Husband and wife team Julian and Anne work together alongside two nurses during what show promoters call the show's most "dramatic surgery eve".

Speaking about the procedure, Mr Norton, 47, said: “The drama [is something] that I’m experiencing and the nurses and Ann, my wife, we’re all experiencing first hand.

"The thing that makes it really interesting and exciting is you know that when that gets on telly there will be one and a half million people sitting on their sofa getting that same sense of drama and tension.”

Lamb rescue

Peter Wright goes to a call of an ewe that has a lamb stuck inside her.

When he arrives, the vet learns from farmer Clive and his wife Elizabeth that the ewe was expecting three lambs and she has already delivered two but the last one is stuck.

The lamb has its head turned the wrong way inside and mum will not be able to deliver it without help, so the lamb could die.

Vinnie the horse

Viewers will see Richard, who bought horse Vinnie to train and eventually ride.

He is keen to get Vinnie castrated in the hope it will make him easier to handle.

Richard, however, is a little squeamish.

And the rest

Among other animals to feature are an alpaca called Maverick, a wallaby - and a goose with a sex injury.

The Yorkshire Vet series 10 airs tonight at 8pm on Channel 5.
