Description
In the sixth series, the doctor tackles fatherhood and his complicated relationship with local teacher Louisa. Episode 5. Sally Tishell returns to Port Wenn, apparently cured of her obsession with Martin though she is hostile to Jennifer, whom she sees as a professional rival, and put out that Martin refuses to declare her fit enough to work on her own. Joe Penhale takes part in a survival course in the wilds where he ends up literally shooting himself in the foot whilst Morwenna and Al find that they have unwittingly corresponded with each other on a dating website, causing Al to move out and lodge with Joe. Martin attends to beach-comber Lorna, whose mystery illness turns out to be too much iron in the blood. Episode 6. After vying with Jennifer for customer attention Sally learns that she is finally allowed to practice alone and resume her old job so she is keen to see off her rival. Jennifer plans to leave Port Wenn but a marriage proposal from Bert changes her mind. Hypochondriac Malcolm Rayner complains of a cough which Martin, given that Malcolm is a builder, diagnoses as asbestos poisoning. Malcolm, believing he is dying, gets drunk and arrested by Joe, who panics, posting asbestos warnings around the village. When he impales himself on his staple gun Martin rescues him but his blood phobia makes him vomit. A bigger blow for the doctor is the arrival of his mother Margaret, who coldly informs him that his father has died. Nor is she very good with baby James though she seems anxious to make amends. Martin is wary.
Description
Episode 7. Ruth bumps into Margaret and berates her for being an unloving mother to Martin but even Margaret, like Louisa, is concerned that Martin seems withdrawn and unwell. He attends the school prize giving but his curt manner ends with him stomping off and Louisa, running after him, is hit by a car and hospitalized. Visiting her Martin is concerned that she may have an embolism but is shocked when she announces she wants to take James for a break with her mother Eleanor in Spain. Military policemen visit Port Wenn, looking for Mike, an Army deserter. He is prepared for a life on the run but Martin persuades him that things will go better for him if he gives himself up. Episode 8. Martin watches sadly as Louisa and their baby get in a taxi on their way to Spain, after which he seeks advice from Ruth. She believes his emotional detachment and fear of blood both stem from his loveless upbringing and advises him to go after Louisa. As a result he confronts his mother, who has come to stay purely because she is penniless after her bereavement, and he throws her out. Discovering that Louisa has a condition that could be fatal if in flight he gets Penhale to drive him to the airport and gets her off the plane, performing a successful operation on her. Meanwhile Ruth and Al go into partnership in a Bed and Breakfast venture whilst the wedding reception of Bert and Jennifer hits disaster when, due to Bert's penny-pinching, an inferior generator electrocutes DJ Caroline and Morwenna and Al have to save her by phoning Martin for his advice.
