Doc Martin: Our Last Summer (2022)
First episode that brought tears to my eyes.
The Ellinghams are packing the house, selling items to support at sea rescue boats, when a man with an injured arm arrives at the surgery for help. Doc agrees to see him. He fixes the issue and then joins Louisa to pack up the children's room. In the meantime, the town has banded together to throw the Ellinghams a goodbye party.
Sally Tishell is being helped by Ruth to let go of the Doc. Meantime, Chicken the dog has been found to be missing, much to James distress. Doc decided to print up missing posters which he convinces Joe Penhale to post around town.
Doc gets a call from the man with the injured arm, who has accidentally managed to stick himself with the injector needle he had been inoculating his cows with. Doc finds out where he lives and drives out to what was his Aunt Joan's farmhouse.
Later, the farmer says he has seen Chicken the dog running around the farm. Doc and Louisa see Chicken out in a field and try to call him back only to have to escape the cows as they run towards them. When jumping over a stone wall that has barbed wire topping it, Doc is caught, ripping the vein in his right arm. By the time this all resolved in the last 10 minutes of the airing, my eyes were filled with tears. It was absolutely stunning.
A great episode to end the last series of the show.
