At long last, the new season of mega-popular British comedy Doc Martin is almost here. After two long years of waiting, fans will finally get to go back to Portwenn. And ITV has released a clip from the first episode of Season 8!

Martin Clunes is, of course, back as everyone’s favorite grumpy medic, along the rest of the regular cast, including Caroline Catz as his Martin’s long-suffering love interest Louisa, and Dame Eileen Atkins as his acerbic Aunt Ruth.

Season 8 is widely expected to be the penultimate outing for the series, with the comedy’s ninth season – expected to air at some point in 2019 or 2020. So there’s a lot of emotion for fans surrounding this season’s premiere. (It’s also probably why we don’t actually know much about what to expect from the new episodes.)
