Other People's Children - s07 ep06

Doc and Louisa have new homework from Dr. Timoney: Go on a date. A real date. With dinner and everything. The Doc, wasting no time on the way home from the session, asks Louisa on a date for the following night. He brings flowers to kick things off so it looks like they’re headed in the right direction. Until dinner conversation, once again, devolves into a line of questioning from the therapy session and, of course, there's the problem with....

Danny. He’s back. Still hot for Louisa. Still religious as ever. This time he’s with a group of kids from London who signed up to go camping at the new Portwenn Fishing Holidays B&B (supervised by Al and Bert, of course--nothing to worry about there). The event seems harmless but the other teacher at the school, Pippa, makes a suggestion that hits the nail on the head: Why is Danny really there? Subtlety was never his strong suit and his sanctimonious smugness rears its ugly head shortly after he arrives.

The pressure is on as Sal invites Clive to move his things upstairs right away. And she means EVERYTHING. He’s neglected her for a long time so he’s desperate to ‘perform.’ Unfortunately, things aren’t so ship-shape below deck and needs the Doc’s help. But time is of the essence and desperate times call for desperate measures. And also defibrillators.

Jealousy, thigh-highs and peas, Hep A pirates, share-it-out sharing circles, and the Danny Ick Factor. Grab your guitar, kids, cuz tensions run high on this magical day in Portwenn!

Control-Alt-Delete - s07 ep05

The Doc has had it with Buddy. He’s everywhere. Always around. Always getting in the way. In his desperation and frustration, he decides he’ll be the one to put him down. Louisa and Morwenna stop him and he agrees to drop him off at the holistic vet in town: Portwenn’s old GP Dr. Sim’s daughter, Angela. After careful examination, or after self-medicating (hard to tell), she determines that Buddy and the Doc have unfinished business—namely Buddy thinks the Doc is lonely.

Aunt Ruth informs Bert that his squatter time is up and needs to leave her property. He expected it was coming but has another angle. Bert delivers his homemade hooch to Aunt Ruth. She tries it. Likes it. And now Bert has an extra two weeks on her land—and a possible business partner.

Penhale has declared his love for Janice. Not out loud to anyone but himself, of course (or thankfully). So in an effort to woo Janice—and to show her his civilian, less intimidating side—he plans a big BBQ at his place with all the usual suspects attending: Morwenna and Al. Unfortunately, duty calls as Angela Sim has other ideas that day.

BBQ inferno, swing and a miss, Scotch Eggs on the Beach, and the end of Tishell Take-Out. Pull up your lawn chair, grab some exotic sardines and enjoy episode 5!

Education, Education, Education - s07 ep04

Doc and Louisa are at Dr. Timoney’s for another therapy session. By watching their behavior, if one didn’t know better, you’d think the Doc and Louisa just met. But their ‘homework’ proves to be an icebreaker—no matter how awkward (and boy is it awkward). Whatever it is…it’s working.

Bert’s been asked to move his camper van because there are complaints: he's ruining the 'view.' So he takes the opportunity to begin a(nother) new business venture--a still. A whiskey still. He hasn’t mentioned it to a soul. Al suspects something is up—he knows his dad better than anyone. But Bert’s not talking. He’s just breaking into his old restaurant and ‘borrowing’ a few things—things that probably wouldn’t be repossessed anyway.

Peter Cronk wants to shadow the Doc (and drive Morwenna mad in the meantime). He says he's interested in becoming a doctor--but has other ideas at the moment. He’s quite the inquisitive teenager, especially about pharmaceuticals, and little by little the Doc becomes suspicious.

And, finally, three little words: 

Clive. Is. Back.

Flirty (and unenforced) speed traps, happy depression, thumb hooks, and camper chairs. We’re rounding the halfway point so grab a few Curly Wurlys, tell your family to leave you alone, kick back and enjoy!
