The surviving ten episodes from the second series of the popular 1960s medical drama starring Bill Simpson and Andrew Cruickshank. Set in a medical practice in the fictional Scottish village of Tannochbrae, the series follows the experienced and mildly conservative Dr Cameron (Cruickshank) and his adventurous and enquiring junior partner Dr Finlay (Simpson). In series two Cameron and Finlay's housekeeper Janet (Barbara Mullen) becomes the subject of Dr Snoddie (Eric Woodburn)'s romantic attentions. This seems unlikely to sit well with Finlay, who has something of a rivalry with Snoddie thanks to his ill-concealed disdain for Finlay's progressive approach to medicine.
