Doctor Martin Ellingham is a very good doctor, but sometimes he must go out of the box to find solutions and must delve into his own history to find an answer.

Post Season 9...The Ellinghams have had a busy year, full of change, and they are trying to move forward as a family.

Post-series 7. After the events of episode 8, Martin and Louisa are determined to give their marriage one last try. Martin knows he must change in order for them to stay together, but can he do it?

*Sequel to Newcomers* Louisa and Martin prepare for the arrival of their second baby, while Elizabeth and Samuel navigate their new relationship together, torn between London and Portwenn.

Biologically, she's linked to Portwenn. Has she ever visited? Not until now. Dr. Elizabeth Jhaveri is keen to bring good psychiatric care to a small, quiet village, but her life is about to become even more colourful than she expected. *First story, please read and review!*

From the day of the non-wedding, this story is of Louisa's thoughts, emotions and point of view with a few twists and turns to the classic storylines. I have attempted to write about the details we did not see on screen whilst staying as true as possible to the characters. Reviews welcome!

(**THIS IS A SEQUEL TO THE STORY "WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT"** You must first go and read that one, or I promise you, you will have no idea what is going on!) A continuation of the Martin and Anna story.

SPOILER ALERT! This story fills in the thoughts of Martin and his old tutor Newton, who is assessing him, as played out in S9E8.

Sally Tishell was complicated, everyone in the village knew that. She could be prickly, mercurial, morose, or happy. But just how complicated was known to no one.

This story is a companion piece to my story, "Just a Glimpse",with the same premise, that Martin continues to work as a London surgeon. Many of the characters from that story appear here and, if you haven't read it, you may want to read it for reference. I hope you will enjoy the continuing saga of the Ellinghams as they engage in the life of their extended family.

Martin and Louisa are at a crossroads in their relationship. They both react to events from the perspective of their own insecurities and when things finally come to a head, they both have to confront some disturbing home truths. Set somewhere around the happenings in S6 and S7, this story explores their journey.

Set in S3E5, this story begins after Martin and Louisa get back from the concert and Louisa tells him she doesn't want to see him again. What might have happened if Martin received some advice and decided to act upon it.

Post season 7. Martin and Louisa realize that Change is indeed inevitable if they want to make their marriage work, but can they do it? I'd like to add that English is not my first language...so I Do apologize for any grammar errors. it's also my first attempt ever writing a story, so excuse my mistakes, everyone has to start somewhere, right? Enjoy! And I LOVE reviews!

Our fate can swing on a very slender thread.

Christmas - A time for giving and forgiving as the saying goes. Martin is about to experience the meaning of it - in big way.

Having children is not exactly a rational thing to do. Is there ever a right time? A post-Series 8 story. (Minor spoilers!)

After the saga with the Wintons finally ends and Martin and Louisa are alone for the first time on the grassy hill...things were said and things were implied, but what did they really mean? (S7 E8 spoilers)

This story takes place before Martin Ellingham leaves London. He is at the peak of his career at St Mary's Hospital and very much in control of his life - until someone enters his world and turns it upside down.

Right after end of series 8, Martin and Louisa wonders about they're rellationship, with the help from people who cares...

There is no engagement without a ring. What might have happened after the supper Martin cooked in episode "Nowt So Queer".

Before Doc Martin Series 7 things were happening off screen... So just why did Rachel Timoney end up in Cornwall?

Post Series 2. Martin and Pauline are dealing with the after effects of the trauma of being held hostage in the surgery by crazy Jonathan, and Louisa has decided she needs a temporary break from Portwenn after her father was arrested. Meanwhile, a movie crew has come to the village to film a remake of "Rebecca," starring a famous actor who once lived in Portwenn as a teenager.

I think that eventually Martin will come to accept Buddy for James Henry's sake if nothing else. Maybe this is how it will happen

This is Martin's story after Louisa left Port Wenn

The original story had two parts but, when I rewrote it, I made it into one. I added more of the village and some scenes that help explain how they got back together. Hope you don't find it too repetitive.
