• [to Gavin Peters] 

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : Take your hands off me, you unctuous platitudinising eunuch!

• [the baker has come to see Doc Martin about a stomach ache] 

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : Take some time off work.

  Baker : Chance would be a fine thing. I've got a couple of hundred pasties to bake for the eating contest tomorrow - biggest earner of the year.

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : Cancel it!

  Baker : No, doc.

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : In all probability you have a stomach infection. Until I can find out exactly what it is, I don't want you spreading it around the village.

  Baker : It's a tradition, our contest.

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : Oh yes, the tradition of mass food-poisoning and the complications that ensue. Cancel it!

• Dr. Martin Ellingham : What do you want?

  Gavin Peters : Just a chat.

  Dr. Martin Ellingham : Then chat with the receptionist - I'm busy.
