Stewart James quotes from Doc Martin

Portwenn should come with a handbook.

Magicians, these chemists.

Doc Martin?

Dr. Martin Ellingham

Dr Ellingham, yes.

Yeah, I heard you prefer your proper title. I thought surgeons prided themselves on just plain Mr.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

I'm no longer a surgeon.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

For future reference, unless you're incapacitated you should come in to the surgery.

I can't really leave here during the day.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

Let's hope you don't need a doctor then.

So it's true.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

It's true I don't appreciate having my time wasted if that's what you mean.

A man of your talent. Famously sharp mind. Portwenn must come as a bit of a shock. I bet half the village came in when you opened up just to see what you'd done with the place.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

Yes They did.

Then there's the aggressive unhelpfulness of that receptionist, oh what's her name?

Dr. Martin Ellingham

Elaine?

Yeah Elaine. And those girls. Those girls that just hang around giggling all the time, What's that all about?

Dr. Martin Ellingham

You're very perceptive.

They can't make good coffee there, it's just brown water.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

In my experience, you can get brown water from the tap.

I've gone over the top haven't I?

Dr. Martin Ellingham

Yeah.

Dr. Martin Ellingham

The pills old Doctor Sim used to give you. You were taking them weren't you. Did they help?

Kept me just this side of Bodmin.
