Where Are They Now: 'Doc Martin'

When Doc Martin was initially introduced in the Nigel Cole comedy Saving Grace in 2000, no one expected the character to still be going in the 2020s, let alone have his own show that had been on the air for nearly 20 years. But the decision to take actor Martin Clunes from Dr Martin Bamford, a successful London surgeon, and refashion him as Dr. Martin Ellingham, a miserable GP terrified of blood in the seaside village of Portwenn, turned out to be a winning concept.

It helped that creator Dominic Minghella was willing to let the show grow and change as it went on. The series, first and foremost, was a fish-out-of-water comedy about a doctor with a terrible bedside manner. But it became much more than that over the years. It was a love story about a man who could express his feelings, an oddball crime solver story between a policeman and a doctor, and then, over time, an ensemble comedy about the village itself, where the people who surrounded Doc Martin were just as crucial as the GP's family.

By the time the show had run ten seasons and ended with a Christmas special in December 2022, fans were sad to see their longtime friends go. So, a year on, we're looking them all up to find out where they are now. What shows have they been in, and what can we look forward to seeing them in soon?
