About this listen

Doc Martin arrives in the picture-postcard fishing village of Portwenn, Cornwall. Once a high-flying London surgeon, his suddenly developed blood phobia means he has to take a job in a local practice. But while the Doc's medical skills are second to none, his bedside manner leaves a lot to be desired. He immediately starts infuriating the locals, none more so than school teacher Louisa Glasson....

Sam North is a screenwriter and author of eight novels, including The Automatic Man which won the Somerset Maugham Award, and The Unnumbered, which was long-listed for the Man Booker Prize.

it's doc Martin it's familiar and sweet it's entertainment you'll already know but it's nice to lay back shut your eyes and be taken to cornish village life so irrelevant it's addictive.

fun and a lighthearted listen. I liked the narrator, although the 'cornish' accent irritated me slightly as it sounded more Bristol than Cornish, as always happens with both TV and audiobooks! Otherwise I enjoyed the book (preferred the audio book to the TV programme) and would recommend it, just hope they bring out another one soon!

Great fun, easy listening.
