Product Description

“Absolutely bloody hilarious”—London Evening Standard

“Thoroughly charming” —
The Guardian (UK)

He’s surly, self-centered, rude, and uptight—but he’s the only doctor in town. Martin Clunes (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. Collection includes the first 4 seasons of this wildly popular Britcom seen on public television.

Disc 1
Doc Martin After learning that his wife has been cheating on him, Doctor Martin Bamford impetuously leaves London for a week in a coastal village he visited as a child. Charmed by the scenery and the locals, he stays longer than he planned, makes friends, learns to fish, and helps solve a mystery. Disc 2 Doc Martin and the Legend of the Cloutie Now settled in as the local G.P., Doc Martin longs for privacy. Everyone in the village knows everything about his life. He wants to buy a large, isolated farm, but his plans fall through when a London family swoops in. To secure his dream home, the doctor uses local folk magic and invokes a fabled beast.

It’s a simple, easy-going movie about a man trying to find himself after his marriage flounders who gets involved ultimately deeply in the community in a small beautiful seaside town, Cornwall, in England. It had serious parts, but mostly a comedy.

I watched the series before watching the movies. I have to say I'm a bit torn as to which version of Martin I enjoy more. I really like what they did with the series. Definitely more relateable for me. The movie version of Martin is in such sharp contrast a. I think I enjoy the supporting characters in the series a little more. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed both the movies and the series. I wish the series hadn't ended.

I have the Australian/Region 4 discs of the two DOC MARTIN movies which were released a few years back (and have since gone out-of-print).

Firstly, these movies are really good! I don't think most people would be disappointed, HOWEVER, to fans of the TV series, I must warn you that this Doc is NOT the same surly Doc from the ITV television show.

If you've ever noticed the end credits to an episode of DOC MARTIN, you might have noticed the credit "arising from the film SAVING GRACE." That is because the character of Doc Martin is based on the character Dr. Martin Bamford from that movie, who was also played by Clunes, and which was also set in the same fishing village (except under its real name of Port Isaac rather than the made-up name of Port Wenn).

After the film SAVING GRACE came out, Clunes' production company decided they'd like to do some more with the character and signed a deal with Sky television to produce a series of made-for-TV movies: two a year for what was to have been a three-year deal. The two movies in this collection, "Doc Martin" and "Doc Martin and the Legend of the Cloutie" were the only two that were made (as Sky Pictures went under before any others could be produced).

Both telefilms are "prequels" to SAVING GRACE and take place in the same "universe". In other words, the locations are the same and some of the supporting cast are the same. The first telefilm tells the story of how the Doc leaves behind city life to be in the country. The second film shows him as more-or-less established in the village.

To use a comic-book/sci-fi analogy, these movies (including SAVING GRACE) are set in a parallel universe to the ITV show.

I am a huge fan of the TV series Doc Martin, and thought I would like these movies. The character Doctor Martin Bahnford originally appeared in the film "Saving Grace" as the local doctor. This movie and the other(Doc Martin and the legend of the cloutie) takes place before this, and tells how he got to little town in Port Issac. Later the character was changed into Doctor Martin Ellingham in the TV series "Doc Martin".

So, this is not the same character as in the show, though I think you will enjoy this if you like the TV show or the movie "Saving Grace" (I love both).

Anyways, in this movie Doc Martin, a surgeon, runs away from his cheating wife to a small town in Port Issac. Here he ends up fishing and finds himself caught in the mystery of "the jelly maker". I don't want to spoil what the jelly maker does...but it is one of the most hilarious things that I have ever heard of or seen, and it is worth buying this just to see this hilarious plot. Many other things along the way are humorous, and there are scenes where the doc helps sick people.

I find the character Doctor Martin Bahnford to be a very interesting because he can be very nice to people (unlike the one in the TV show), yet still yell at things in humourous ways. Also, a few characters from "Saving Grace" are carried over and all of the locals, though they are crazy, are very likable. All great acting.

Anyways, I highly reccomend this to anyone especially if you enjoy the movie "Saving Grace", the show "Doc Martin", British TV, or just a very good and funny movie.

In "Doc Martin - The Movies" we are introduced to a lovable General Practitioner who, because of unfortunate circumstances in London, decides to vacation on the beautiful Cornish seacoast. While he thinks over his situation he meets the Provincials in his location of choice; namely the real Port Isaac, in Cornwall; a small fishing village, almost untouched by the outside world. Very well written, this two part series is the precursor of the very popular five season series named simply, "Doc Martin" and it is almost mandatory that you purchase all five seasons as the Doc turns from lovable to irascible in the Jekyll/Hyde manner leading to rollicking good fun and side-splitting humor. Enough love interest in the most refreshing, and tasteful English manner. How he settles his personal situation is revealed in the second part of "Doc Martin - The Movies". Character development of the cast of characters is so good you will fall in love with this series and wonder how long they can keep it up. Not only will you laugh a lot but, if you pay attention, your English language skills will improve; Doc Martins usage is impeccable! The Provincials, on the other hand, will teach you some word you've never heard before. P.S. If you own an IPad, you can get beautiful images of Port Isaac, both satellite and panoramic.

Although used, this collection was in such perfect shape that one could absolutely not tell that it was not brand new. Delivery was on time and the product well packaged. A great way to enjoy these entertaining shows without paying a fortune!

OK, first things first, this is not the Doc Martin of the TV series, rather, this is a Doc Martin who needs a life change and heads to the rural community of Port ... where he lucks into being the doctor. The stories are interesting,entertaining, and funny!
