The Indian doctor. Series 3 Cover Image DVD DVD

The Indian doctor. Series 3 [videorecording] / a Rondo Media/Avatar production for BBC ; written by Catrin Clarke et al, producer, Eryl Huw Phillips ; directed by Lee Haven Jones.

Summary:

"The Indian Doctor tells the story of Delhi graduate Dr. Prem Sharma (Sanjeev Bhaskar -- The Kumars at No. 42) who arrives in the UK in 1963 as part of the “first wave” of Indian doctors wooed by then health minister Enoch Powell. Prem and his dignified wife, Kamini, want to build a new life for themselves following a family tragedy -- but rather than finding a glamorous job as a high-flying consultant in London, Prem finds himself in the Welsh coal mining village of Trefelin, where apart from the culture shock, he quickly starts to realise that things are not quite as they should be."It's now 1966, three years after Dr. Prem Sharma and his wife Kamini's arrival and in their different ways, they have both become a part of the community. However, their lives and those of everyone in the village are about to change when Trefelin's highflying "prodigal sons", Basil and Robert Thomas, return to bring Trefelin its first taste of the Swinging '60s.
