Doc Martin is coming to an end with this final episode. The Christmas 2022 special marks the final time viewers will see the crotchety Cornish doctor on our screens.
After 18 years, the British drama bids farewell to Doc Martin (Martin Clunes), and all the quirky inhabitants of Portwenn. The Christmas episode is centered around the big holiday itself and Portwenn is preparing for a wonderful time of year. That is until Martin closes down Santa’s grotto because he suspects that Santa (Leonard, played by Ron Cook) is harboring something contagious. This puts a dent in the festive cheer and Louisa’s special Christmas parade.
This prompts locals to refer to the Doc as ‘Grinch’ but it’s part of his general demeanor regarding Christmas anyway. He hates the occasion and we soon find out it’s because he has painful memories of his childhood and being left by himself, with nothing more than a pencil set and orange as his Christmas presents from his parents.
Farewell Doc Martin
Christmas comes to Portwenn! 🎄

😥 After 17 years I think of Portwenn as a real place, with real people… Louisa, Bert and Al Large, Mrs. Tishell, Morwenna, Aunt Ruth, and all the other quirky residents of the beautiful little village, what will become of them? And they need Doc Martin, all these people are so clumbsy, always injuring themselves… Oh what will happen to them all?
