Summary:
The Indian Doctor is a heartwarming and award-winning British comedy series that originally aired on BBC One. It tells the classic fish out of water story of Prem Sharma, a highly educated Indian doctor, and Kamini, his beautiful upper-class wife, who, attracted by the promise of opportunities in the new National Health Service and a glamorous lifestyle in London, leave India in 1963 only to find themselves sent to a small practice in a Welsh coal-mining village. This comes as quite a shock to both the Sharmas and the villagers, who have to learn to live with each other.
