Yay! Happy ending! Silly storyline but loved that last scene.

Well, that was a nice ending, I'm happy with that.

Even when they went to the beach.

oh no never, the Dr is never in casual clothes either, always the suit, well apart from his stripy pyjamas with the button done up.

I am jealous of Louisa's clothes, I can't imagine her slobbing around in track pants and mismatched socks...

I really like Doc Martin too. Watched an old episode yesterday that I hadn't seen before, thought I'd seen them all, anyway, the one where Albert Large and his Son find the birth certificate, the Sons, he doubted he was his birth Father but Albert's name was on the birth certificate, even thought they still didn't know he was 100%, he was his Dad and that's all that mattered.

Love the scenery and Louisa has some lovely clothes.

I also hope there's a happy ending, I feel so sorry for the Dr and Louisa, I could have cried with some of the episodes, all he needed to do was make a small comment, a smile or a hug and it would've all been sorted and ok.

I've been unwell recently and a vast amount of my time has been spent watching the old series on Amazon Prime. I'm up to series 3...

Tuesday's was the best so far,i hope they keep the doc junior on board.
I was worried that Caroline Catz was looking rather bored at playing Louisa,again - but didn't realise that she was acting ,she can convey so much with a flitter of her fake ? eyelashes .

Dh and I were hoping that the policeman would taser himself :o

I think as each series progressed, the writers have made Martin more repressed and unhappy,so it does now seem odd that he and Louise ever had a relationship. But he seems to be trying hard now, so fingers crossed! Please give us a happy ending, don't leave an unsatisfactory cliffhanger for another series that may never happen!

I'd agree with that. OK, we get that he has problems. But presumably he must be affectionate with her sometimes? Or why did she agree to marry him in the first place? (And how did baby James get here?!)

But we never see any of that, so their whole relationship appears quite unbelievable, TBH.

I agree that the whole Martin/Louisa thing is now pretty tedious. He couldn't even say he was glad to see her. I hope the therapy pays dividends.

Ah of course re the aunt thingy.

ROFL @ the baby never growing. I love the dozy policemen and the teenagers Grin

From a personal point of view, I hate the reference to attachment disorder, because it is such a common, unhelpful misdiagnosis instead of ASD.
Given his family background, it is very possible that he has ASD and it has run through his family.
I don't think programs like this should make casual mentions like this.

Auntie Joan was a better fit, but Stephanie Coles must have had enough of DM and wanted out.

Bit confusing as there have been at least two series with the baby in and he is still a baby. He seems not to be ageing in the same way as the adults.

Oh I like Ruth. It's nice that there are a couple of relatives that care about Martin.

I love him, I think he's brilliant. Always has me laughing. I think we are seeing a softer side to him personally though. The therapy, admitting he doesn't want to lose his wife, moving out for her. The way his parents were with him, it's not surprising he is the way he is. I loved his little speech to the therapist about how she will diagnose him with attachment disorder.

The aunt (Stephanie Cole) died, the thin aunt is her sister I think, so no dodgy actor replacing.

I love Doc Martin, but I find the relationship between him and his wife irritating and tedious. I much preferred last week's episode when it featured unlikely medical dramas.

I think the new aunt is supposed to be Stephanie Cole's sister isn't she?

We had many childhood holidays in Port Isaac so I find it very comforting to watch.

I'd only just realised about the auntie swap - it was an older, larger lady who was rather wonderful, and yes replaced with a quite different actress who one doesn't warm to as much. Shame.

I heard it is to be the last series so I am looking for a seriously happy ending! There seemed to be quite a point made of Martin falling down the stairs and banging his head so I was hoping this was going to magically give him a bit of a personality transplant so he could start being nice to Louisa.

love the gaggle of teenage girls.
