Hard-bitten womaniser Dr Jack Kerruish (Kevin Whately) returned from three years in Africa keen to fulfil his ambitions to work in a country practice – and when a vacancy arose at The Beeches surgery in the lush Derbyshire countryside because Dr Daniel Acres (Tom Beard) left to join the rival new clinic in the village – Jack was the man for the job.
There he met fellow doctors Dr Will Preston (Simon Shepherd) and Dr Beth Glover (Amanda Burton), and there was love in the air between Jack and Beth.
But before the good doctor could minister to his gorgeous colleague, there was the little problem of his girlfriend Sandy (Melanie Thaw).
Liverpudlian actor Gary Mavers joined the cast in 1995 as trainee doctor Andrew Attwood, who was meant to be attached to The Beeches for six months. By 1999, Dr Joanna Graham (Haydn Gwynne from Drop The Dead Donkey) had joined the practice.
