Doc Martin S1-10 DVD Boxset inc the Finale Specials

Product Information

When the character of "Doc Martin" was initially introduced as Dr. Martin Bamford in the 2000 film Saving Grace, it is highly doubtful that actor Martin Clunes thought he'd be playing the character nearly a quarter century on, let alone that his role would have become a beloved one on both sides of the pond. However, all good things must come to an end, and in 2022, Clunes hung up the stethoscope and cranky pants and retired the series Doc Martin with the series' tenth season, having been on and off the air nearly two decades since 2004. When it comes to causing chaos Bert Large is the poster boy for DIY disasters in Doc Martin. This week, in a nod to the very first episode where he flooded Dr Martin Ellingham’s GP surgery, the hopeless handyman enrages his ex Caitlin (Angela Curran) by damaging the pipework at her pub The Crab and Lobster, causing the cellar to become flooded. Then when he attempts to fix the situation, he ends up making it even worse! "Over the years Bert’s got into so much trouble. He made everybody ill when he sold contaminated bottled water, he flooded the surgery, and all sorts of other things," laughs Ian McNeice, 72, who plays him.

To say Louisa Ellingham is stunned to find her estranged father in her kitchen making a cup of tea is an understatement! The child counsellor hasn’t seen dad Terry Glasson in years and, given his dodgy past, she’s worried about his return to Portwenn!Last time Terry popped up in the village he was planning a robbery. This time, it appearsTerry (The Good Karma Hospital’s Kenneth Cranham) is genuinely ill. But this places Louisa’s GP husband in a predicament as, after examining Terry, the Doc is bound by patient confidentiality. Unable to tell Louisa (Caroline Catz) what’s wrong with her dad, the Doc is forced to keep his father-in-law’s secrets. But it looks like the truth could be exposed as Martin’s forthright Aunt Ruth, an experienced criminal psychiatrist, realises Terry’s been released from jail on compassionate grounds, and pays him a visit. "Ruth’s not met Terry before and is immediately suspicious of him. She’s onto him" reveals Dame Eileen Atkins, 88, who plays Ruth. "She’s sussing Terry out! It’s been fun for me because I’ve known Ken Cranham forever. It’s lovely acting with an old friend!" The Doc resigned in the last series, and when we start the new season, he’s left holding the baby – literally! – as he and Louisa have had a second child, daughter Mary Elizabeth" explains Martin Clunes. "He begins to question whether he’s made the right decision about resigning!"

So this final series of Doc Martin sees the Doc making efforts to overcome his phobia, and beginning to question whether he made the right decision about resigning. He and wife Louisa have also welcomed a baby daughter, Mary Elizabeth, a sister for four-year-old James Henry, so we're guessing their household will be pretty raucous in this series. It always takes a minute for British series to make their way to American TV, but with streaming, that's been upended a bit in the last few years. (Nowadays, Call the Midwife and Doctor Who even have day-and-date broadcasts!) In the case of Doc Martin, the rights had been snapped up by AMC Network's Acorn TV, a streaming service with a small but fiercely loyal audience. (It's famous among streaming services as having the least amount of monthly turnover in the business.) However, there's a key factor here: Small. That means, for many Doc Martin fans, that final season might as well never have made it to American shores.
