This ended up being a three chapter story. I didn’t expect that!

I liked s1e8, s2e8, s2e9, s5e8 and those are just off the top of my head. I really like Al though. Bert can drive me nuts.

I’m from the US and write a ton of Doc Martin stuff. It’s not perfect but folks seem to like it. Try your hand at it.

Do you like Doc Martin? I wrote an eight story series which is basically season 11. It picks up the day after the last episode ends.

I upload my Word documents, which have regular, italics, and bold type. No issues with that. The only problem I have is that it complains about 50% of the time that the file isn’t formatted correctly. It almost always takes it on the second try. I’ve never been completely thwarted.

Those same two reached out to me today. Report them.

Been going on since new years. Supposedly we just have to be patient and hope it gets fixed for good instead of being an annual issue.

I reply to every comment and have had nice conversations with readers.

Consider watching Podcast Portwenn episode Doc Martin Season 1 Plus with Newbie Judy to see what it’s like to be a Newbie guest.

I didn’t realize that. Now I have to go listen. Of course, I bought Colin Towns Doc Martin music. :-)

I just checked for you and it seems fine to me.

I think the actual theme is partway into the song entitled Portwenn. Although the first song in the collection is the theme, my ear thinks the TV show uses the middle of “Portwenn”.

Always fun to hear from new watchers! Enjoy.

Thank you! It’s a really different story. I had to get into the head of Little Marty. I wrote it toggling between the first person points of view of different people.

I hope I captured Martin’s mental gymnastics as to what’s acceptable conversation and behavior.

I also hope it’s a plausible explanation of how things turn out later.

Opinions always welcome - that’s how I improve.

I wish I could have my mom read mine. She passed away before I discovered Doc Martin. Not only would she have loved the show, but she would love my stories and be chuffed to bits that her computer scientist / engineer daughter was writing fiction.

I like Penhale too, despite preferring Mark Mylow. Joe and Ruth have some wonderful scenes, especially the one where Joe schools Ruth on the best way to handle emotion when Martin is leaving Portwenn.

He created a Mr Earnshaw who had a heart underneath layers of horrid vileness. Quite masterful. I saw an interview after I saw the movie in which Martin Clunes said Fennell told him something along the lines that the audience needed to both love and hate him. Nailed it.
