Synopsis:

Dr. Martin Ellingham, a London-based surgeon, relocates to the picturesque seaside village of Port Wenn, establishing himself as the area's general practitioner. He grew up in the area having been raised by his now widowed Aunt Joan Norton. His reasons for leaving London and the high-paid life of a consultant are not clear initially but related to a phobia he has recently developed. He soon meets several of the locals and eccentricity abounds. Martin's situation is made more difficult by what can only be referred as an almost complete lack of an acceptable bedside manner. He is gruff, abrupt and intolerant, not only in issues related to medicine, but to life in general. He and the headmistress of the local school, Louisa Glasson, are clearly attracted to each other and despite their awkwardness, slowly develop a relationship.

After a two-year break, Martin Clunes is back in a brand new series of Doc Martin. Set against the stunning backdrop of Cornwall and the picture postcard village of Portwenn, Clunes reprises his role of the curmudgeonly Doctor Martin Ellingham who truculent and tactless manner upsets just about everyone. When we last saw him he had packed his bags ready to take on a consultant's position in London. That was until estranged girlfriend Louisa gave birth to their son - who still doesn't have a name... Can the Doc cope with being a new dad while trying to resume his high-flying career as a surgeon?
