The Indian Doctor: Series 1

The life of a South Wales mining village is changed forever when a doctor and his wife arrive from the Indian sub-continent in the Sixties. Starring Sanjeev Bhaskar, Ayesha Dharker and Mark Williams, the series tells the story of Dr. Prem Sharma, a high-flying Delhi graduate who arrives in the UK in 1963 as part of the 'first wave' of Indian doctors wooed by the then health minister, Enoch Powell. Prem and his wife, Kamini, want to build a new life for themselves following a family tragedy but, rather than finding a glamorous job as a consultant in London, they find themselves in the sleepy Welsh coal mining village of Trefelin. 5 episodes.
