00:00A doctor from a big city.
00:03Moves to a small coastal town.
00:05There's a lot of quirky characters.
00:07Wacky personalities.
00:09What could go wrong?
00:11Best Medicine is about a doctor named Martin Best.
00:14A very top-shelf surgeon.
00:16Well, if it isn't our new doc.
00:18You must be Doc Martin.
00:19Dr. Best, actually.
00:20Welcome to Port Wendt, Dr. Best, actually.
00:23It's a place he summered as a child with his Aunt Sarah.
00:26Aw, come on.
00:27Release me, please.
00:28He's coming to try to deal with his own issues
00:31and doesn't want to interact with people.
00:33The reason why he's here in Port Wendt
00:35is he has a very big secret.
00:37Doctor Who's Afraid of Blood.
00:38See how that could narrow your options?
00:40That's quite mysterious.
00:42So what happened?
00:44I ended up developing a desire to lead a choir to life.
00:47As the show progresses, we'll find out
00:49why his secret developed.
00:51Every episode, there is something that's going on in the town.
00:53I don't care about silly little festivals or games.
00:55I'm here to work.
00:56They do things at their own pace,
00:58and I think from Martin's point of view,
00:59he's trapped with these people
01:01when all he wants to do is just do his job.
01:03This town and all the people in it are very dear to me,
01:05so I'm keeping my eye on you.
01:07In the town, Louisa has a sort of ability
01:10to meet him where he's at.
01:12I think he's taken by that.
01:13I love it here.
01:14I love knowing my neighbors.
01:15Their path is an unusual one,
01:18but that's part of the fun of it.
01:19Louisa.
01:20Yeah?
01:22I'm going to need a stool sample.
01:23We've got a fantastic ensemble.
01:28You know, Abigail Spencer, Cree, Annie Potts, Josh Segara.
01:32There's a dog.
01:33Watson has a particular charm about him.
01:35Well, there you have it.
01:37Well, maybe not.
01:39I am a doctor.
01:41I won't be attending parties or going on hayrides.
01:44You're a direct one, aren't you?
01:45There is this classic sort of fish-out-of-water element
01:47because he's so socially awkward.
01:49I'm very good at my job.
01:53He needs to be brought out of his shell.
01:55Brought you some donuts from the salty breeze
01:57because, you know, we're buds.
01:58That's not how I would characterize it.
02:00We need a really good doctor here
02:03because we have some wacky illnesses every episode.
02:08I have boobs.
02:09Mine better be bigger.
02:10How many of you are here for the round-tail moth allergy?
02:15We need to remove his shirt.
02:17I think I'm gonna faint.
02:20He came here to save people,
02:22but this town might actually be the medicine that he needs.
02:24I think that it's the kind of tonic that we all need.
02:29There are emotional moments that surprise you in the comedy.
02:32It is a show with a lot of hearts.
02:35This place won't let you hide.
02:37This town really throws him for a loop,
02:39and I think that's a good thing.
