Further details
An old flame of Joan's sails back into her life and whisks her off her feet. But John Slater is seriously ill with a life-threatening heart condition, as Doc Martin discovers when he insists on running tests.
Slater wants to rekindle his decades-old love affair with Joan and sail off into the sunset with her. But Martin is anxious for Joan that she will have to nurse a very sick man.
Schoolgirl Melanie Gibson, one of Port Isaac's bevy of teenage beauties, develops a crush on the doctor. He's her hero after he puts her dislocated shoulder back, and stops the agonising pain she has been suffering. Martin fears the wrath of her father when the girl keeps turning up at the surgery.
She's only 15. But when Melanie's father Alan comes to visit, it is he who does the apologising for his daughter's behaviour.
