What is season 10 about, and how many episodes is it?
Here’s everything we know, including who is in the cast and what happens in the final episode.
What is the first episode of Doc Martin season 10 about?
At the end of the last series, the Doc decided, after having his medical career scrutinised by the General Medical Council because of his blood phobia, that he would resign from being Portwenn’s GP.
This final series sees Doc Martin making efforts to overcome his phobia, and beginning to question whether he made the right decision about resigning.
He and Louisa have also welcomed a baby daughter, Mary Elizabeth, a sister for four-year-old James Henry.
With Louisa pursuing her new career as a child counsellor in his old surgery, the Doc is left literally holding the baby, and indulging his hobby of repairing clocks on the kitchen table.
But does he really want his old job back?
In other stories in Port Issac, Morwenna has to find herself new employment with the local estate agent and finds herself not getting along with her new boss.
Ruth meets Louisa’s father for the first time, but immediately becomes very suspicious of him.

In the final episode of the long-running drama series, the villagers throw the Ellinghams a farewell party.
