About this show

Doc Martin: He's surly, self-centered, rude, and uptight--but he's the only doctor in town. Martin Clunes (Manhunt, Men Behaving Badly) stars as Doc Martin, a hotshot London surgeon forced to change careers when he develops a fear of blood. Relocating to a sleepy, scenic Cornish fishing village, he offends everyone in town and falls in love with a beautiful teacher (Caroline Catz, DCI Banks).
