Best Medicine S1E8 - The Bogfather - Fan Deep Dive

Join Chesla, Erica, Doug, and Chris on Podcast Portwenn as they dive into Best Medicine S1E8, "The Bogfather". This week, the discovery of a 300-year-old body in the bog brings out a rare, "happy-go-lucky" side of Doc Martin as he gets back into his scientific element. However, the town's supportive nature to the locals once again doesn't extend to Martin, when they discover a link between the "Bog Man" and the modern-day doctor.

The team explores the theme of loneliness throughout the village, from Geneva’s heartbreaking secret to the Doc’s own isolation after a fallout with Louisa. We also discuss Mark’s questionable grasp on reality regarding rock-star goldfish, Al’s DNA-driven identity crisis, and Elaine’s "Claws and Order" true crime pivot. Finally, the group reacts to Martin’s major admission of his blood phobia and teases next week’s highly anticipated episode "Doc Martin", guest-starring Martin Clunes.
