Customer Reviews

Excellent TV Viewing
I'm pretty hard to please when it comes to TV drama but this show has hit all the right buttons.
Clunes is just superb as the cermudgenly doctor Martin Ellingham with some of the best put down lines I've ever heard. These are, however second to his facial expressions and his physical manner, his walk in particular is just so wonderfully superior.
The rest of the characters in the series are brilliantly observed and receive a good deal of development. Particular mention should be made of the village bobby, Mark Milo, Aunty Joan and especially Caroline Catz as the village school teacher Louisa Glasson. The continued will-they, won't-they situation between her and the Doc. is excrutiating but also wonderful to watch.
The series is not all comedy however, there are some touching moments too and it is this mix of comedy and pathos which contributes to what is about the best drama on British television at present.

Absolutely beautiful location, and the acting is typical British TV quality. Clunes is an amazingly versatile and saavy actor whom I would go see in other film or series and will be buying when I get to UK in December 2007.

Love it very much, my spouse and I

WHAT A CHARACTER
Could this be the rudest GP in Britain?

Martin Clunes plays Doc Martin and his no nonsense style of Doctoring is hilarious. His skills on the romantic side leave a lot to be desired too.

Great location, great cast and a really funny series from start to finish.
