Please check out Doc Martin

Its a medical mystery about a world-renowned surgeon who develops a fear of blood. He moves to a small town to be the local GP. Town full of colorful characters.

I cannot recommend it enough

Ovation includes it as part of their mystery XanaDUer2 May 2024 #8

For it to be a mystery, it would take him more than 10 seconds to come up with the right Dx🙂 NoRethugFriends May 2024 #9

Not always a mystery, drama and comedy also featured. Excellent cast.

Doc Martin is a British medical comedy-drama television series starring Martin Clunes as Doctor Martin Ellingham. It was created by Dominic Minghella[1] developing the character of Dr Martin Bamford from the Nigel Cole comedy film Saving Grace (2000).[2] The programme is set in the fictional seaside village of Portwenn and filmed on location in the village of Port Isaac, Cornwall, United Kingdom, with most interior scenes shot in a converted local barn. Fern Cottage is used as the home and surgery of Doctor Ellingham.[3]
