Love this show too.  However, I am finding Bert Large more insufferable than ever this season 😂

Doc Martin was so popular that it was remade in a number of other countries:  Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Netherlands, Russia, and Spain.  I watched the Spanish version Doctor Mateo, which had a similar run length and basically the same plot:  big-city surgeon develops a fear of blood, moves to a small town to work as the town's GP, falls in love with a local schoolteacher, etc. 

I don't know if the British series was more drama or comedy, but the Spanish remake was definitely more about laughs.  As corny & silly as it was at times, I busted a gut plenty while watching the show.  Not sure why the lead character's name was changed from Martin to Mateo, but the fictional Spanish town was called San Martín.  Although the Spanish setting looked nothing like the town in Cornwall, it's arguably just as picturesque.
