Looks like an excellent Feb.
Please take away the voice on James Herriott’s show. It is demeaning and condescending.
Thank you.

Hi Linda – Velvet airs midnight Saturday into Sunday on PBS Wisconsin. During the third episode that aired Feb. 15-16, it started a few minutes later than usual. The show will be on pause for the next couple of weeks while we air pledge programming, but it is available on PBS Wisconsin Passport. For more information, here is a link that provides future airdates for Velvet: https://pbswisconsin.org/watch/velvet/airdates/. I hope this helps!
