A village doctor's cures go beyond medicine.

The self-discipline and courage he developed during the war helped him face new and more challenging battle on the home front. One of the most popular series ever to air on British television, Doctor Finlay carries on in this powerful Masterpiece Theatre presentation, the continuing all-new adaptation , starring David Rintoul, Annette Crosbie, Jason Flemyng and Ian Bannen.

In post-war Tannochbrae, Dr. john Finlay works long hours, attending to his patients with hope and a kindly bedside manner. Life is often harsh in this small Scottish town and people struggle to do their best under difficult conditions. The idealistic young doctor confronts diseases without antibiotics and copes with the personal and often heartbreaking medical crisis of the towns' families. While not always wise and not always right, Dr. Finlay's natural decency shines through in a frequently dark climate of fear, pain and distrust.

Based on the unforgettable characters created by A.J. Cronin including Dr. Cameron, Dr. Neil and their housekeeper Janet, Doctor Finlay is a memorable journey into the world of healing, humanity...and hope
