Insufferable relationship after Season 5 This British (mostly)comedy - (slightly)drama is fun and refreshing for a good long time, with lovely views of an idyllic, seaside village filled with rich characters who are entertaining, if unlikely in our real world. But the unlikely relationship between Doc Martin and the school's Head Mistress, Louisa, becomes the focus of the story line. The problem is that it cannot really endure over time. Rife with misunderstanding, the energy in that mismatch becomes old and
.well
