Martin admits he couldn’t wait to return to North Cornwall to make the third series of Doc Martin, especially after the ratings success of the first two.

“It would have been a battle to keep me away from making another series, after the way people took to the first two. It was very gratifying.
|
“I love working on Doc Martin; being in Cornwall, and being able to work with my wife Philippa, who is the producer. At the end of the day’s filming we were able to go back to a beautiful house along the coast from Port Isaac, which has stunning sea views.
|
“And it means I was home before my daughter Emily had to go to bed, which doesn’t happen when I am filming in London. We had our two spaniels in Cornwall with us too; Mary and a puppy Tina.
|
“When we were filming in Cornwall last year we did consider buying a property because we loved the place so much. We are still looking, and if we found the right property we would buy. It would be a perfect holiday retreat.
