After their hair-raising experience at sea, Duncan and Dick were back at St. Swithin's with their tails between their legs.
It was business as usual for the troublesome twosome, though some new characters were brought in including a Scottish equivalent of Danny Hooley named Andrew MacKenzie ( played wonderfully by John Kane ), gorgeous Dr. Kate Wright ( Jacquie Ann Carr ) who was engaged to Duncan and obsequious Dr. James Gasgoine ( Andrew Knox ), who clearly was the Bingham equivalent. Ernest Clark was still as fiery as ever as Loftus.
'Doctor On The Go' was the weakest of the 'Doctor' adaptions, possibly due to too many script writers being involved. A case of over egging the pudding. John Kane did get many laughs though as MacKenzie. He later provided scripts for 'Terry & June', as well as writing a sitcom for Richard Briers - 'All In Good Faith'. Jacquie Ann Carr did provide some romance too as Kate.
In 1977, 'Doctor On The Go' was gone after its second season. In 1979, the characters moved over to the other side of the globe for 'Doctor Down Under' and then in 1991 were back on British soil one last time for their final adaption - the unsuccessful ( and unfairly forgotten ) 'Doctor At The Top'.
